1. Cb insights: newsletter

What it does well

When you’re dying to create truly unique, cutting-edge #content, it’s easy to stray from your organization’s mission and focus.

Takeaway for #marketers: educate your buyers

Think about the problems that your product or service already aims to solve for customers. Then, turn that into relevant #content that’s going to both save time for and inform your audience -- and make it easy for them to access it.

Plus, it can never hurt to establish your brand as a go-to resource.

5. Zendesk engineering

What it does well

Zendesk realized that there’s an audience to be tapped that’s seeking insights and expertise on the technical side of the product, so it used that to build an entirely independent #content property.

Takeaway for #marketers: tell your brand story

Dig beneath the surface of the solutions your company provides. You offer solutions -- but what is your process? What have you learned? That makes you do what you do so well, and how did you get there?
