Overview

Uplatz presents this comprehensive course on Content Marketing. It is a self-paced course consisting of video tutorials. You will be awarded Course Completion Certificate at the end of the course.

Because content marketing is all about storytelling, and humans have told stories for as long as they could speak. Our attention will always go to those who tell great stories.

Content Marketing is a strategic marketing approach focused on creating and distributing valuable, relevant, and consistent content to attract and retain a clearly defined audience. It ultimately aims to drive profitable customer action.

Given the fact that content plays a role in virtually all marketing techniques and tactics, there are no goals that can’t be reached using content. However, from a content marketing perspective, we see that marketers focus on some key goals such as -

  • Brand awareness
  • Lead generation
  • Engagement
  • Sales
  • Lead nurturing
  • Customer retention and loyalty
  • Customer evangelism
  • Up-selling and cross-selling

Content marketing is a marketing approach that involves developing and sharing relevant articles, videos, podcasts, and other material in order to attract, engage, and keep an audience. This strategy creates expertise, raises brand recognition, and keeps your company in the forefront of people's minds when they need to buy what you sell. Material marketing is the creation and dissemination of relevant, valuable content to existing and future consumers, such as blogs, newsletters, white papers, social media postings, emails, videos, and the like. This material, when done correctly, displays knowledge and demonstrates that a firm appreciates the individuals to whom it sells.

Consistent usage of content marketing builds and maintains relationships with potential and current consumers. When your audience sees your firm as a partner that cares about their success and a valued source of information and direction, they're more inclined to buy from you. Content marketing may help your company generate leads, build a case for your product or service when someone is deciding what to buy, and complete sales. You'll need to supply the correct content at each point of the sales cycle, from awareness to consideration to purchase, to make it work.

A content marketing professional is in charge of planning and implementing different internet marketing campaigns and promotions. These may be carried out through any of the Content marketing domains, including SEO, SEM, PPC, social media, email, and content marketing. A content marketing expert is a marketer who should have a thorough awareness of all domains in order to make the best judgments for successful campaigns. Other content marketing responsibilities include assessing data and campaign performance, comparing previous month's campaign ROI, planning and executing improvements, and identifying next actions for enhancing campaign performance.

A expert should be skilled in analyzing data in order to have a better understanding of the market and consumer landscape. One of the most significant components of a specialist's job is strategizing campaigns in terms of organic and inorganic performance, as well as budget allocation. The content marketing professional is also in charge of hunting for new leads, clicks, and consumers in new areas and locations.

This course will teach you the main tactics that content marketers employ to gain and keep profitable consumers. You'll learn how to create, plan, and implement a content marketing strategy, assess and monitor content marketing's performance, produce captivating material, apply a strategic framework while writing, and use content marketing to enhance your professional brand and authority. You'll also learn how to put the concepts offered to you into action and use content marketing to establish your own personal brand.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
