When you have taken up the role to write content on a
regular basis, whether it is for an organization or for yourself, think of how
you can get innovative and how far you can really go when it comes to dishing
out not just words but some creative, out-of-the-box ideas. Usually, when you are busy churning out
content on a daily basis; it’s sometimes good to take a pause and step back a little
and ask yourself a few questions. The answers might startle you and you might
want to think of new ways to look at content for better results.
Curating Content-
In a B2B Digital Marketing industry or any other industry, for that matter;
curating content may not be an inspiring task for any writer who wants to
invest all his energy into writing original content. But curating can require
skills and it in no way means that you re re-using content. If curating someone else’s content can add
more value to it then why not try it to see how it works for you. With plenty
of resources available, it takes some level of skill to reinvent ways of
finding new content, analyzing it to see if it suits your business domain and
to reposition it for making it sharable enough.
Critical thinking-
Critically looking at content resources may not be such a negative
trait. In fact, to be able to question anything that does not convince you or
having the curiosity to dig-deeper for finding more insights through any
content piece is a good sign of being a competitive content writer. Not
accepting content at its face value, or trying to find the underlying message
that you may want to build upon, can help create some unique content pieces for
the right audiences.
Understanding the audience-
Like it or not, no matter how creative you want to be, you
may not have the free will to write about any theme, without understanding your
audience and taking their preferences into account. In the B2B Digital Marketing realm; understanding your audience and their needs should be
at the core of all your strategies; let alone content. In fact, your audiences
and their needs may give you a direction to create content effectively; as without
a goal your content may not become that valuable or shareable.
The role of a content writer can be creative and challenging
enough, with the perks of being able to switch roles between a researcher, a
curator and even a problem-solver. If you write content as though you are solving
a problem and making someone’s life easy; there won’t be a dearth of ideas for
creating valuable content.
