Content governance is a critical aspect of any company’s marketing strategy.
We know that content is undoubtedly the backbone of your business. From sales to marketing to customer support and product documentation, content is what gets the job done. When you develop content, it takes months of planning and years of iterations to get it done the right way.
Content governance is the new way of managing the content that gives you control over the content that you produce. It ensures that everyone on your team is in sync and moving towards the same goal. It prevents dissension, reduces errors, and keeps your team from reinventing the wheel. Without it, a company could see the content they publish on the web being duplicated by competitors, resulting in a content governance nightmare.
Many organizations are realizing the value of content, but they have a hard time establishing ROI. The trick is to have the right steps and tools to achieve content governance that drives growth.
In this episode and post, we uncover a 4-step roadmap to achieve success.
