How Content Marketing Can Increase Conversions by 8x (The 30-Piece Rule)

I was chatting with a builder recently.

He’s extremely knowledgeable, and I would say the top 1% at what he does.

But he does, at times, lose work to cheaper competitors.

That’s why we have not only redone the copy on his web site, we’re also
creating a regular flow of blog content…

Which is then cut up into both emails and social media posts.

Yet I said to him, don’t stop there.

Take those blog posts, and turn them into a book.

Why?

It’s simple.

According to Marcus Sheridan, author of “They Ask, You Answer”…

When someone had absorbed 30 or more pieces of content (in his case, blog
posts) before a sales meeting, the conversion soared from an industry average
of 10% to over 80%.

That’s right – an 8x increase in conversions.

But that content doesn’t have to come from 30 different pieces.

It can be as a result of attending an extended webinar. Or reading a book.

So be smart.

Carve up your content.

And leverage it at every stage of the marketing funnel including…

The top (to get your prospects to join your email list)
The middle (to get your prospects to book an appointment with you)
And the bottom (to get your prospects to buy)
