We discuss conversion copywriting within content writing in the purpose of connecting with those ideal customers.   Use the content to help answer questions when you are not around, it is a main resource for your customers. Always be sure to know who you are writing you content for, it does not matter how much content you write if it doesn’t hit home with the reader. Why is it important to write Account Based materials. How you are expected to reach your target market within creating content that is easier for them to consume. Enterprise sales is a long game and you need to ensure you are not trying to push a sale within the first touch points. Ensuring that you match your content to your sales cycles. We uncover the importance of personalization within sales and marketing. Personalization comes down to segmentation. What area of businesses should we be focusing on creating the content is it purely just one department? Jessica Mehring helps bridge the gap of making a collaborative  content. We highlight some of the common mistakes that people face within content writing.   Are you using software to help you understand how effective your content is? This can include split-testing to ensure that your e-mails or specific content to see what the results/outcome would be.
