Connect with your clients through content marketing
Farmers have relied on The Furrow magazine since 1895 for the latest tips to improve their operations. It’s helpful, it’s informative – and it’s content marketing.
John Deere, a leading manufacturer of farm machinery, publishes the magazine.
Studies show 70% of customers would rather learn about a company through an article rather than an advertisement. Additionally, 90% of consumers find custom content useful, according to Demand Metric, a marketing advisory firm. That’s why John Deere and companies around the world are creating their own content to drive sales.
Content marketing is a strategic way for companies to engage with consumers, customers or potential clients. It is a type of marketing focused on creating and distributing relevant, valuable and consistent content to a targeted audience.
Content marketing keeps your reader’s attention, improves brand loyalty, generates leads and increases whatever your success metric may be while reducing costs.
