WHAT'S GROWING ON

In today’s crowded, chaotic business world, it can be hard to make your  brand stand alone and demand digital attention. With thousands of other senior living communities to compete with, establishing a tone of voice for your brand is essential because it gives your company a unique personality.

The internet reaches more than half of the world’s population, making it one of the most important channels for reaching your audience. To reach your senior living audience effectively, it is essential to understand how to make your content readily available to them.

When developing a content marketing strategy for your senior living community, it can be challenging to create something that’s captivating every time. Inevitably, content will run thin, and it will be necessary for your community to focus on a wide variety of topics if you wish to continue creating content that is unique and impresses your audience. Your community’s content marketing efforts must be relevant to readers’ interests, the community, and your brand as a whole if you wish to generate leads, promote an event, or inform your audience.

Brand consistency is important for your social media accounts, but it is also important to understand what outside resources can help build your brand on social media. Users enjoy being "social" - which means it's not always about posting new content but sharing trending articles and stories with their friends and family.

With so many different social media platforms, the social media world can seem confusing or overwhelming to many. However, the purpose of social media is simple – it’s a network to connect people and promote conversation, and as a business, you want to be a part of the conversation.

Three fundamental goals of content marketing are brand awareness, increasing traffic to your website and increasing reach without increasing costs. Content marketing is a long-term strategy that allows you to continue to gain leads without breaking your marketing budget.

Content for senior living provides information on communities, but what your audience deserves is a solution to their senior living needs. Being a resource for your senior living audience requires a strong content marketing strategy.

Simply put, content marketing is the practice of creating and sharing valuable content to attract, educate and engage your online audience. Whether it’s through your company website, social media accounts or other efforts, you want to provide your audience with information and content that they want or need.

Generating content for your senior living brand is one of the most powerful ways to drive traffic to your website. When you put that content in blog form, it can serve as a platform for a multitude of purposes. Blogs can educate, inform, and entertain.
