Digital Content Marketing Strategy,what it is and when to use it!

With Content Marketing, you are introducing your Brand, products and services to the market, by providing relevant, valuable and useful content to draw your audience in, make an impact, educate and solve problems together.
Content Strategy on the other hand is the planning aspects of managing content throughout its lifecycle, and includes aligning content to business goals, analysis, and influences the development, production, presentation, evaluation and measurement of content.”

Where a content marketer addresses the “whys,” the content strategist addresses the “how’s,” and together they work out the “what’s” and “where’s.” The content marketer develops the customer relationship with the brand. The content strategist manages the work process across every publication the brand leverages.
