    1. CMO.com Uses Curation to Build its Destination Content Site

      Explore Curation Insights (Apr 3 2012)

      We recently talked about the SAP launch of “Innovation from SAP,” a thought leadership site for business leaders with questions about a few new information technology subjects including cloud computing, mobility, big data and analytics.The new blog is intentionally different. It will focus on business topics rather than deep technical information, with an emphasis on content that allows business executives to better understand the role several specific technologies are playing in driving business results. In similar fashion, Adobe created CMO.com in 2009 to help senior marketing executives lead their companies' digital marketing efforts. You might call CMO.com ...

    3. Complex Sales Processes Drive Need for Content Marketing, Content Curation

      Explore Curation Insights (Apr 2 2012)

      A complex sales process is one reason content marketing makes sense, one might conclude from the new Mediative white paper, “Simplifying the Path to Purchase in a Complex Sale.” In some ways, the seven steps in a B2B buying process outlined in the paper correspond to the functional processes one typically sees outlined in a typical business-to-business sales funnel. Mediative does not specify whether curated or original content makes more sense, and how to use each type of content, but that probably is not the key insight. More important is the mapping of content processes and products to the B2B ... (Read Full Article)

      SAP formally announced on March 27, 2012 the launch of its new content site, Business Innovation from SAP, a destination content site based substantially on curated content.

    6. One Way of Quantifying Content Curation Return on Investment

      Explore Social Media Strategy (Mar 25 2012)

      Many would argue it is difficult to quantify the return on investment from content curation, in its many forms. Here, among other themes, is one way to attempt to quantify return from one form of content curation, namely "tweeting." Note the conundrum: all content marketing activities have to relate to business objectives. But it is tough to measure the impact of this one form of content curation marketing to an identified business objective.

      Both the exercise of editorial judgment and use of automated email distribution seem correlated with audience growth for content marketing sites using Hivefire curation tools, an analysis of more than one millionarticles curated by HiveFire’s business-to-business customers has found.On average, the studied sites published about 17 percent of potential material delivered by curator-selected real simple syndication feeds, but curators that published a smaller percentage of potential stories saw higher traffic growth. The correlation seems to be that more-selective posting drove more readership.The analysis also found that delivering curated content using automated online newsletters universally resulted in higher ...

    9. Breaking News Can Drive Inbound Traffic, Optify Argues

      Explore Curation Insights (Mar 20 2012)

      Breaking news presents a unique inbound marketing opportunity for business-to-business marketers, even though most B2B marketers likely believe that is not the case, argues Optify. The typical objection is that “breaking news events” cannot be planned for, and hence are not easy to fit into a B2B content marketing program. Though Optify cautions that the results of a recent study are “mostly anecdotal,” during studied “breaking news” events, about 70 percent of the search engine results page real estate above the fold was used for placed results rather than natural-organic results. That suggests a B2B events. The extent and pace ...

    10. U.S. Pharmaceutical Industry Finds Itself Applying B2B Content Marketing to B2C Sales Efforts

      Explore Curation Insights (Mar 13 2012)

      The U.S. pharmaceutical industry has faced an interesting marketing challenge since 1993, when it was first broadly allowed to advertise new drugs directly to end users. Up to that point the pharmaceutical industry had been a strictly business-to-business content marketing venue, according to the Journal of Medical Internet Research. Today, direct-to-consumer advertising, linked to inappropriate medication use and higher health care expenditures, is the fastest growing form of pharmaceutical marketing. Perhaps ironically, much of the content marketing function is broadly similar: acquaint potential customers with the more-technical aspects of how products work, and can be used.

    11. Does B2B Content Curation Have Value Beyond Marketing?

      Explore Curation Insights (Mar 12 2012)

      Most B2B marketers likely would agree that the primary purpose for content marketing, and hence content curation, is its role in stimulating revenue. Like all other marketing activities, content curation aims to build a sales funnel, directly or indirectly. What tends not to be considered is whether content curation also has value for other parts of the enterprise, typically taking the form of enhanced organizational efficiency. Sensei Marketing argues, for example, that content curation improves collaboration between content creators (thought leaders, executive, product development, R&D;, marketing) and content consumers that include not only potential customers, but also organization service ...

      How Men & Women Deal With Content in Social Media

      Interesting analysis comparing how men and women differ in content curation:

      Women are “gatherers” and to some degree “hoarders” of digital content. But while they collect more content online, they are also more organised with their content and tend to share across a broader network. Women also collect more text content than men, such as blog posts.
