037: Kitchen Side: What Should a Content Marketer Be Goaled On?
from The Long Game Hosted by Alex Birkett, Karissa Barcelo, tommy walker, David Ly Khim
What should a content marketer be goaled on? This is a tricky question, as business goals and content marketing goals aren’t always one and the same. While content marketing initiatives do need to be strategized and held accountable in one way, shape, or form, the big question is: how? This topic was inspired by a Slack forum conversation where a content marketer was bemoaning being goaled on leads attributed directly to content. Their reasoning? That this type of revenue-driven goal clashed with a customer-focused approach, where some of the true value of content marketing lies.
