Content with engagement at core

While in my last blog, we introduced Content as the king !!! And guess what it's true, because since last I have been engaged in multiple conversations which reaffirms thought process of Content as the King, as Content is now looked upon as an engagement piece too. Content: Engagement at the Core


 











While we as marketers, earlier were use to passive communication and thereby making a big noise of our existence reflects in immediate offtakes, as consumer back then was waiting for us; now is the phase were consumer has avid choices and thereby enables them to access their choices which gives emergence to brand from passive to active interaction across all platforms with them. This is what we as marketers refer to as Brand Engagement.
The emergence of digital interaction (social media, blogs, etc.) has shout out loud the importance of engagement and as social engagement has attain certain maturity which has made the market realised the importance of Content.

 It is content which drives the brand and makes it talking point across their digital strategies, as earlier TOMA was through Passive now TOMA is only registered if you as a Brand are Active, with engagement at the core. Google with a goal to provide search engine users the most relevant and useful results possible has launched Google Hummingbird, which is a complete overhaul of the entire search algorithm, as it has changed the way data is pulled for search engine results. This insights allows us (marketers) to be on toes for the brand to make ‘Best Utilization of Resources for Engagement’, therefore, developments in the realm of Brand Contest, digital crowd sourcing, travel stories, performance stories, bloggers meet, etc. are few strategies which we as marketers love to adopt. As it is the Content engagement strategy; which is considered to be the cheapest and the most effective strategy for the brand to engage with consumers. Thereby, it will wise to pronounce for, 'Content, engagement being at the Core'  as every marketers Pet.
