Developing a content marketing strategy in a niche market

According to the B2B Content Marketing Benchmarks for 2017, 61% of companies that are good at content marketing have a documented content marketing strategy. For companies that are less successful with content marketing, this percentage is only 13%. The same report states that 72% of successful organisations indicate that their strategy plays an important role in their success. In short, it is time to determine your content marketing strategy! If you have read our previous article (and make sure you do), you know that customers don’t care about you, your products or your services; they only really care about themselves and their own needs. Within your niche market, whether it is geomatics, hydrography or engineering, you have the knowledge to provide them with relevant and valuable content that they actually want to consume!

Direct Email Marketing

Every week we reach over 60,000 professionals through our newsletters. An e-mail blast, also known as an ‘e-blast’ or ‘partner mailing’, is a form of direct marketing that gives you the possibility to send your message directly to the inbox of relevant people in your target group. Basically, it entails your e-mail being sent to an external database of people that you normally can’t reach because you don’t have their contact details or the relevant permissions to approach them directly. Using the information from our database, we can filter based on criteria such as industry and location.

Why print ads can make a difference in your marketing mix

In today’s rapidly changing and increasingly digital world, the confidence in printed advertisements seems to be declining at a rapid pace. The downward trend in global spending on print advertising says it all; between 2000 and 2014, the annual spend fell massively from US$67 billion to US$19.9 billion. We’re seeing a reflection of this trend at Geomares too, with print’s revenue share dropping from 88% in 2013 to 60% in 2017. Does this mean that the end of print advertising is near? Or does it actually offer opportunities to set yourself apart by advertising in print?
