30. Content, content, content…
• Content Mapping Exercise
 What we learned:
o We had lot’s of content for mature prospects toward the bottom of
the funnel
o We had almost no content for new ‘suspect’ prospects at the top of
the funnel. We had to create A LOT of new content!
This is
• Localise =/= Google Translate! Gina
(our content
• Who owns and who creates the content? manager)
• Before: • Now:
• Local Field Marketer owns • Local Field Marketer owns
• Local Field Marketer creates • Content Manager creates and
approves
