Today, we’re going to cover:

• What a content marketing strategy is.

• Why your business needs a content marketing strategy.

• How to develop a lead-generating content marketing


strategy.

Here we go.

What is a content marketing strategy?


A content marketing strategy is a plan for growing your brand’s
audience by creating and distributing content that engages,
educates, or informs.

While this de�nition explains what a content marketing strategy


is, there are some parts that you’ll need to de�ne for your
business. The �rst part is what growing your audience means for
you. A lot of businesses use content marketing to grow their
brand awareness. Showing up in the search results is a great way
to get your name in front of your potential customers.

Moz’s brand name appears �ve times here, for instance. That’s
bound to stick.

But content marketing is great for generating leads, too. In fact,


70% of B2B marketers report generating leads from content. The
key is setting up a content strategy with this in mind.

The rest of the parts in the de�nition you’ll need to determine


include the format of your content, the platform for your
distribution, and how it’ll engage your audience. We’ll talk about
how to settle on each of these below. But �rst, let’s talk about why
it’s essential to spend time developing a content marketing
strategy to generate leads for your business.

Why does your business need a content


marketing strategy for lead generation?
You need a content marketing strategy because your content
marketing efforts will be more effective—not to mention more
ef�cient—with a documented plan in place. And that’s not just my
stance. More than half of the most successful marketers have
one in place.

Even more? Content marketing costs 62% less than outbound


marketing and creates three times more leads. So if you take the
time and effort to get it right with a documented strategy and
awesome execution, you’ll be well on your way to generating more
low-cost leads for your business.

Content marketing costs 62% less than outbound


marketing and creates three times more leads.

The bene�ts of content marketing are too great to ignore. So


without further ado, let’s get to work on your strategy.

How to develop a lead-generating content


strategy
Here’s a step-by-step guide to developing your content marketing
plan, all the way from initial goal setting to ongoing updates to
keep your content fresh. Let’s jump in.

1. Set your goals


The �rst step in your content marketing plan—or, let’s be honest,
any plan—is to set your goals. What are you hoping to do? Why are
you creating content?

This acronym stands for:

• Speci�c

• Measurable

• Achievable

• Relevant

• Time-based

So, for example, instead of saying your goal is to generate more


leads, set your goal to generate 25% more leads from content
over the next two quarters. That’s something you can track,
measure, and work towards.

2. Get to know your audience

Use these personas as a starting point for creating content that


your audience would want to consume (keeping content
marketing trends in mind as well). After all, you’re creating a
content marketing plan to generate more leads, so you should be
creating that content with your ideal customers in mind.

Ask yourself some questions based on your personas:

• What are your personas concerned about?

• What do your personas want to learn more about?

• What do your personas want to get better at?

• What are your personas reading or watching?

category with all kinds of helpful tools and
resources.

That last question is a great way to get started with some


competitive keyword research, which leads us to the next step.

3. Start your keyword research


In order to create content that generates leads, you need to make
sure it’s reaching people. We’ll talk more about distribution
channels later, but you should have SEO in mind from the
beginning for most of your blog posts, and even videos. 63% of
web pages don’t get any organic traf�c at all—you don’t want to
be a part of that statistic.

And the other sites your ideal customers are reading? Use your
keyword research tool to see what their top-ranking pages are
and what content generates the most traf�c. This can be a great
place to �nd video or blog post ideas for your brand. You don’t
want to recreate content, but if it’s out of date or not a good
match for the search term, you can write something better.

4. Pay attention to search intent


Search intent describes the purpose of an online search. When
you’re looking for something to make for dinner after work, you
might search “30 minute dinner.” The goal is to get a recipe that
you can make in about half an hour. You’re not looking for a
de�nition or an explanation or to make a purchase. That’s not the
search intent here.

See? Google knows.

what they’re looking for. That’s why search intent is important to

There are four common types of search intent: gratuito

For your content strategy, you want to focus on informational and


commercial intent. Someone looking for educational content
about a topic or looking for information to influence their
purchase. Leave the navigational and transactional to any login or
pricing pages your company has.

Even more, you’re going to be competing for attention. We all


spend time on our phones, answering emails, watching Instagram
Reels, or scrolling through TikTok. And then we all get that wave
of shame when we see our screentime reports each week—or
maybe the last one’s just me. Regardless, the average person
spends about seven hours online each day, and a big portion of
that’s spent consuming content. In order to hold your audience’s
attention, you need to be creating great content.

The good news? This content marketing strategy is a good place


to start. Once you’re ready, be sure to create content that answers
their query and offers your audience value. Then, take the time for
content editing to ensure you’re not missing any mistakes or
opportunities (our editorial calendar template may be helpful
here). That’s how you can create high-quality content that not
only deserves to rank, but also generates high-quality leads for
your business.

6. Optimize your content for conversions


This next step is key: In order to capture those leads, you need to
optimize your content for conversions. For your video marketing,
that means focusing on your thumbnails or ending your content
with a CTA. For your blog post content, that means strategically
placing CTAs throughout your post.

The best way to do this is to align your CTAs with your content.
What does that mean? Let’s consider this example from Later.
Here’s an in-text CTA in a blog post about Instagram creator
features that let you monetize your content:

The text is highlighted and bold, and it’s eye-catching centered on


the page. But even more importantly, it’s directing the reader to
related content that they’ll likely be interested in. It’s more
information about making money on Instagram.

Another great way to optimize your content is to offer gated


content, like a spreadsheet or template that users have to provide
their email to obtain. Here’s an example from HubSpot offers free
resume templates on its blog post about the best resume fonts.

In this one, HubSpot uses a big orange button right at the top of
the page to capture as many leads as possible.

After you’ve posted your content on your website, you should


share on social media, send a compelling email to your database,
post on relevant Reddit or Quora threads, or even use it for
webinar or conference materials.

A great example of content distribution from Semrush.

Pro tip: Repurpose your content in multiple mediums for


maximum distribution. You can use part of a blog post to script a
video, use multiple blog posts to build a guide, and make a chart
from a data project into an infographic. That way, you can use one
or two pieces of content to create four or �ve different types of
content that you can use in your email marketing, across your
social channels, and even throughout your website.

Content marketing trends change, so your strategy needs to
include a plan for updating your old content. Now, you should do
this thoughtfully. Let’s say your company sells electric cars. A
short post announcing a new location opening up? Probably not
necessary to update. A cornerstone blog post on the emissions
from standard and the potential environmental impact of
switching to electric? Might be worth checking in on new research
to make sure you’re offering the best information to your
audience.

So make room for monitoring the performance of your content


and then updating as needed. That way, you’re content can always
be generating leads for your business in the background. A
content audit could really help you out here! Use our content audit
