Part of the reason why content marketing is so popular is because it is more engaging than traditional advertising tactics like, say, a stagnant banner ad. Your audience spends time reading or watching your content and may even be compelled to share it on their own social media networks. This helps you build trust and establish your position as a thought leader in the market.
But creating engaging content isn’t simple. It requires upfront strategy work to determine what will resonate with your target group, as well as creative talent to produce high-quality pieces. Many brands are taking this to the next level by creating interactive content, such as clickable infographics, games, and virtual tours.
