Strategies: Content Marketing#
Guides content marketing strategy across channels: content types, formats, distribution, and repurposing. 62% of successful B2B have a documented strategy; content repurposing addresses the top challenge—consistently developing new content. Use this skill when planning content across blog, email, social, video, and pages.
When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
Scope#
- Content types: What you create (by purpose/theme)
- Content formats: How it's delivered (article, video, email, post)
- Channels: Where it's distributed (blog, email, X, LinkedIn, etc.)
- Repurposing: One core content → multiple formats → multiple channels
- Funnel mapping: Content by stage (awareness, consideration, decision)
Initial Assessment#

Identify:
- Goals: Traffic, conversions, brand, retention
- Existing content: What already exists; audit gaps
- Capacity: Resources, tools, cadence
- Channels: Blog, email, social, video; which channels fit audience

Content Repurposing Matrix#
Principle: One core content → multiple formats → multiple channels. Maximize ROI.
| Core Content | Formats | Channels |
|---|---|---|
| Case study | Article, video, infographic, slides | Blog, email, LinkedIn, YouTube, sales deck |
| How-to guide | Article, video, checklist, PDF | Blog, email, YouTube, docs |
| Product update | Article, email, post, video | Blog, email, X, LinkedIn, changelog |
| Industry insight | Article, podcast, post, newsletter | Blog, Spotify, X, email |
Example: One client success story → article (blog) + video (YouTube) + infographic (LinkedIn) + slides (sales) → 4 channels from 1 creation.
Funnel Mapping#
| Stage | Content Focus | Channels |
|---|---|---|
| Awareness | Education, thought leadership, glossary, how-tos | Blog, SEO, social, PR |
| Consideration | Comparisons, case studies, demos, features | Blog, email, landing, social |
| Decision | Pricing, testimonials, product pages, case studies | Website, email, sales |
| Retention | Onboarding, newsletter, product updates, changelog | Email, in-app, blog |
Article Orientations#
Article types by orientation—drives structure, SEO depth, and schema choice. See article-page-generator for page structure.
| Orientation | Examples | Primary Goal | SEO Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Funding / PR | Funding rounds, acquisitions, executive hires | Brand awareness, press, investor relations | Low — thin content, few search queries |
| Product updates | Feature launches, release notes, changelogs | User education, product adoption | Low–medium — internal announcements rarely rank |
| Guides / How-to | Tutorials, step-by-step, best practices | Education, lead nurture, authority | High — matches search intent |
| News / Trending | Industry news, hot topics, seasonal | Engagement, social shares, topical relevance | Medium — quick traffic spikes, short shelf life |
| Evergreen | Pillar guides, glossaries, comparisons | Long-term traffic, backlinks, authority | High — compounds over time |
SEO-driven vs non-SEO-driven: SEO-driven (how-to, listicles, comparisons) → target keywords, full optimization. Non-SEO-driven (funding, product updates) → focus on clarity, shareability, internal linking to SEO content. Hybrid: product launch posts can include SEO-friendly sections (e.g., "How to use [feature]").
Evergreen vs Timely Mix#
| Mix | Ratio | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Evergreen | 70–75% | Pillar guides, how-tos, comparisons, glossaries; long-term traffic; refresh 6–12 months |
| Timely | 25–30% | Seasonal, trending, news; quick spikes; link into evergreen pillars |
Evergreen vs timely (article-level): Evergreen = year-round relevance; steady traffic; refresh every 6–12 months. Timely = weeks to months; spikes then decline; often one-and-done; use NewsArticle schema. Recommended mix: 70/30 or 60/40 evergreen-to-timely.
See content-strategy for SEO topic clusters and pillar-cluster structure.

- Map content types to topics and keywords
- Prioritize by opportunity (volume → intent → feasibility)
- Schedule by capacity; include update schedule for existing content
- Plan repurposing: which core pieces become formats for which channels
- Visual-first: Plan images in calendar from the start; see visual-content for specs and repurposing
