CEO of VaynerMedia and five-time <\/span>New York Times<\/span><\/i> bestselling author Gary Vaynerchuck (Gary Vee) is renowned for his content marketing hacks. In a keynote speech from June 2019, he had a few things to say about content strategy. It\u2019s worth listening to, especially if you\u2019re a content manager or you\u2019re involved in content strategy at any level.<\/span><\/p>\n

This post highlights some of the key points made in the talk by Gary Vee. Marketing in 2020 is a different beast than it was 10 years ago, and he explains why creating a higher volume of content based on strategy is critical for a company\u2019s success.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Communication Is Everything<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u201cCommunication basically dictates everything we do\u2026the thing that has the control is the communication.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

When it comes to communicating with consumers, we\u2019re in the middle of a technological revolution. Even brands that have the \u201cbest\u201d products and services need to use the right digital tools and platforms to communicate effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s not just about getting seen online. What matters is the execution of your communication, the relevancy of your content, and how you interact with consumers. Businesses have to constantly update their communication strategies by tracking the performance of their content, and those that don\u2019t will fall behind.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. A Common Content Strategy Mistake<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u201cOver the next decade or two, you will see companies start to realize that an editor-in-chief will sit at the highest level…having a publishing DNA is imperative.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Unfortunately for many companies, their business results do not match the high standards of the product or service they offer. The biggest mistake: they\u2019re being too much of a \u201csales organization\u201d and not a \u201cmarketing brand organization.\u201d They are too focused on producing \u201cquality\u201d content and less concerned about how every piece of content is performing in terms of influencing the decision-maker, or the consumer, or the end-user. Knowing how to affect these decision-makers and knowing where to reach them is key.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Focus on the End Consumer<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u201cUltimately, executives of companies\u2014unfortunately\u2014are not consumer-centric.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Gary Vaynerchuck believes the problem with many big businesses is that they think they’re entitled to the business. They worry about which conferences they can attend, or which awards they can win, instead of focusing primarily on the end consumer. When you only focus on the end-user, it gives you the greatest leverage to spread your ideas and build brand awareness. All the other things are just a distraction.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Analyze Each Platform<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u201cDo the people creating your content know that adjectives in your copy change in the difference of 37,000 people seeing it versus 2.9 million seeing it?\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

If you want content to succeed on any channel, you need to understand how the channel\u2019s algorithm works. It\u2019s not just engagement and shares that affect content rankings; it\u2019s also about the words you use.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, according to a BuzzSumo report, headlines on LinkedIn with the words <\/span>habits<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>mistakes<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>successful<\/span><\/i>, and <\/span>leader<\/span><\/i> received more shares on average. Top-performing content also contained phrases such as <\/span>the future of<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>X ways to. <\/span><\/i>In contrast, on Facebook, the top-performing headline phrases include <\/span>will make you<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>this is why<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no simple formula; you need to research headlines that resonate within your industry. Find out which adjectives, nouns, and phrases appear in the highest-performing content on each channel. And constantly analyze your own content. Which of your headlines get the most views? Learn and then adapt.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Focus on the Present and the Future<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

\u201cThe next decade is going to be an enormous game of volume of output, and whichever companies figure that out first and can execute it will disproportionately pick up market share.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

It\u2019s irrelevant what you\u2019ve done in the past. It doesn’t matter if your last piece of content didn\u2019t achieve the results you wanted. What matters is your next piece of content. Because that piece of content could be the one that blows away the competition. Through quantity, you\u2019ll find the quality. The more content you deliver to your audience, the more feedback you\u2019ll get, which will inform your content strategy going forward.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary Vee Marketing in 2020: Q&A Session<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

In his June 2019 talk, Gary Vaynerchuck was asked two important questions about content strategy:<\/span><\/p>\n

What budget mistakes can the marketing department avoid?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

In his response, Gary Vee explained that many businesses are wasting a lot of money on marketing strategies that are no longer effective in today\u2019s digital environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis company will spend more money building a booth at some conference than it will spend on working media dollars properly deployed on LinkedIn.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Why spend thousands of dollars to attend a conference when you can spend the same amount on content production that will have a much greater impact on brand awareness, credibility, and customer loyalty?<\/span><\/p>\n

Inevitably, it’s at the top level of a company that these budget decisions are made. You need to persuade these people about the value of content and the importance of content volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you ensure that you stay relevant to your followers?<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cOnce you make that commitment to content volume, the only thing you can do is pull through.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

When you commit to a higher content volume, you’ll suddenly find that every piece of content becomes more focused. Every location, job title, and organization can be targeted with each new piece of content.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, instead of trying to reach 10,000 people on one channel with one piece of content, create 10 different pieces of content for 10 channels, each focused on reaching a specific group of 1,000 people. You still reach 10,000 people, but each group is more likely to listen. You create more content, but every piece of content is more focused.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>The problem is that we\u2019re not putting out content that is valuable to the person on the other side.<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Inevitably, when you start to increase your content volume, more people will start talking about you\u2014and that\u2019s when you have to grab their attention. But you have to focus on value as well as volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not about the initial quality of the content; it\u2019s your content ideas that matter, as does the value of your content to the end-user. You\u2019ll get feedback on every piece of content and can then shape your future content strategies based on this ongoing feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n

Seven Things You Can Do Now to Increase Content Volume<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

1.\u00a0Focus on a wider range of topics. Think about every group of people you can target.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Don\u2019t worry if some content fails\u2014keep creating content and listen to feedback.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Use more of your team members\u2014or hire more people\u2014for content production.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Establish a content marketing workflow with all team members.<\/span><\/p>\n

5.\u00a0<\/span>Repurpose content.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Take advantage of powerful content creation and publishing tools.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Work with Constant Content to add more writers to your team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Content Strategy in 2020: Frequency and Repetition Work\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n

People aren\u2019t sitting around waiting for you to hit \u201cpublish.\u201d You have to find your audience by ramping up your content volume. Fortunately, the internet, combined with technological advances, has changed the way companies can communicate with the end-user. The beauty of digital marketing is that it allows marketers to deliver different content to different audiences across different platforms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This new online landscape means that content frequency and repetition work. It\u2019s not just about the quality\u2014quality content is subjective. Today, the more content you produce, the more opportunities you have to connect with people on a deeper level, which is what <\/span>this video encapsulates<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
