In 2020, monitoring key performance indicators gets even more complex when you factor in the purpose of each piece of content, as SEO consultant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/content-marketing-kpis\/choose-right-content-kpis\/\">Benj Arriola<\/a>\u00a0points out.<\/p>\n<p>Profitability, of course, is a constant. Yet when you dig deeper into the numbers, you discover that you need to narrow your focus, depending on what story you need the metrics to tell\u2014especially in these days of personalization and account-based marketing.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing what metrics are most important for your business will help you <a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/plan-blog-content-calendar-for-the-year\/\">plan your content calendar<\/a>\u2014and what types of content to put on that calendar.

They demand meetings, product demonstrations, and other proof that shows how your product or service will benefit their bottom line. When you conduct a content marketing campaign to attract another company\u2019s business, then, you have to keep your eye on <a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/b2b-business-blogging-tips-generate-leads-sales-opportunities\/\">the most important metric\u2014leads<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Leads Matter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cold-calling a business who isn\u2019t interested in what you\u2019re selling is a waste of time. Besides their contact information, you need their interest.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to determine their interest is getting a lead from one of your content pieces. If they\u2019re interested enough to submit their name and email address, it\u2019s likely that they\u2019re a qualified prospect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get B2B Leads with Targeted Thought Leadership Content<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Like it or not, the suits in the C-suite award their business to the company who wows them with their expertise by producing content that <a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/3-ways-to-map-content-to-the-buyer-journey\/\">helps them<\/a> be more effective. According to a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edelman.com\/research\/2019-b2b-thought-leadership-impact-study\" class=\"broken_link\">recent Edelman study<\/a>, 58% of the executives they surveyed do business with companies whose content impressed them.<\/p>\n<p>That number rises when you factor in cross-selling. More than sixty percent of corporate decision makers bought new products and services from companies with whom they have done business with before\u2014simply because of a thought-provoking piece that demonstrated the company\u2019s expertise in its field.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p><figure style=\"width: 638px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2019-edelmanlinkedin-b2b-thought-leadership-impact-study-13-638.jpg\"  alt=\"2019 Edelmanlinkedin B2b Thought Leadership Impact Study 13 638\" width=\"638\" height=\"359\" data-image=\"34170\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/EdelmanInsights\/2019-edelmanlinkedin-b2b-thought-leadership-impact-study-125200569\/13\">SlideShare<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/figure>\n<p>Well-crafted <a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/what-is-thought-leadership-and-when-you-should-use-it\/\">thought leadership<\/a> pieces position your company as a leader in its field by providing a direct benefit to the reader. For example, if you\u2019re a web developer, you might write a piece about the key ingredients for a successful website. If you\u2019re selling commercial decking, compare the benefits of various types of materials.<\/p>\n<p>Thought leadership content isn\u2019t a brag sheet about your credentials. It\u2019s putting those credentials to work creating content that helps your target customers make more money and become more efficient.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dig Deeper into Content Leads KPIs to Cut Costs and Increase Revenue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every lead you get from your content, however, costs your company money. From the money you spend to produce and publish the content to your spend on promoting the content, it\u2019s important to measure your leads\u2019 costs and the revenue they produce versus the cost.<\/p>\n<p>The following\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/the-most-important-b2b-marketing-metrics-for-ceos\/\">B2B KPIs<\/a>\u00a0can help you choose which types of content produce leads that have a high revenue-to-cost ratio:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Marketing-influenced customer percentage:<\/strong>\u00a0Measure the impact a given marketing campaign makes on your sales team\u2019s productivity and revenue velocity. Make sure, though, that you educate your sales team on the impact that thought leadership content has on making a sale. One of the key takeaways from the Edelman study was the current disconnect between sales teams and CEOs about the value of thought leadership content.\u00a0Encourage your sales teams to collaborate with your marketing teams for best results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Return on your marketing investment (ROMI):<\/strong>\u00a0Measure the money you put into each content campaign against the revenue you receive. Eliminate poorly performing types of content and create more of your <a href=\"https:\/\/marketinginsidergroup.com\/content-marketing\/b2b-lead-generation-strategies\/\">top ROMI performers<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Marketing-originated customers:<\/strong>\u00a0For each content campaign, measure the number of new customers that come from the campaign itself versus those who became customers through other means.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Time to revenue:<\/strong>\u00a0How long does it take for a piece of content to produce revenue? When sales teams act immediately when they receive a qualified lead from a content campaign\u2014and use that content as a springboard for their sales presentation\u2014a company will usually experience better results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Customer acquisition cost (CAC):<\/strong>\u00a0For every campaign, calculate the average expense of gaining a customer. For example, if you produced a white paper that yielded three customers, learn the average cost for each. This strategy can help you find ways to streamline the content production-to-customer pipeline through more detailed content or more effective follow-up by your sales teams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ratio of lifetime value to customer acquisition cost (LTV\/CAC):<\/strong>\u00a0Discover what you\u2019re spending to acquire each customer. Find ways to increase your customers\u2019 lifetime value\u2014such as cross-selling and upselling, as well as areas in which you need to spend more wisely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>The Top Content Marketing KPIs for B2C Companies: Revenue and Sales<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If your company has a product or service it wants to sell directly to consumers, the KPI metrics need to shift to measuring sales and revenue for each campaign. With today\u2019s powerful data analysis tools, it\u2019s easy to measure conversions from social media campaigns, AdWords, and search\u2014whether it\u2019s from general search terms, local searches, or third-party searches, such as those on platforms like eBay or Amazon.com.<\/p>\n<p>Use these specific KPIs to dig into the sales and revenue data to uncover more specifics:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Return on investment (ROI)<\/li>\n<li>Conversion rate<\/li>\n<li>Leads generated through\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/forbesagencycouncil\/2017\/04\/06\/five-kpis-you-should-be-monitoring-to-ensure-your-digital-strategy-is-working\/#128b0e0875d3\">landing pages<\/a>, social media, subscriptions, and other types of content<\/li>\n<li>Purchases from social media campaigns<\/li>\n<li>Social media conversions<\/li>\n<li>Organic search conversion rate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Use these metrics to determine which content produces the most sales and revenue. Then, tweak your content strategy to eliminate your poor producers and publish more of the kinds of content that produce results. In general, content that demonstrates the benefits consumers get with your products and services works best for B2C campaigns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Increase B2C Campaign Results with Content that Spells out Consumer Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Br2KSsaTzUc\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>Since the goal in B2C is to \u201csell or else,\u201d as legendary ad man David Ogilvy put it, you need to stress consumer benefits in your content. Whether it\u2019s a landing page that points out your product\u2019s benefits, a bulleted list on an Amazon.com description, or a demo video, you need to convince consumers that your product will make their lives better.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a specialty sheet music company could record a demo video of one of their staff musicians playing each piece. Musicians who see the video will want to learn to play the piece themselves\u2014and with the demo, can also gather pointers by watching the professional\u2019s technique. With YouTube\u2019s superb analytics, the company can measure the sales that come from clickthroughs to the product page.<\/p>\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wCD6VdY_7qk\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>If it\u2019s a new product, the manufacturer could create a video that not only shows the product\u2019s benefits but also shows how it works.<\/p>\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DZrjXSsfxMQ\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>A blog post to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.advdermatology.com\/blog\/body-shaping-treatments-2019-trusculpt-id-torc\">promote a dermatology practice<\/a>\u00a0could create content about a new procedure. Adding before-and-after photos would demonstrate both the doctors\u2019 mastery of the technique and how it has made patients\u2019 lives better.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, when it comes to B2C content, show them the benefits, and you\u2019ll get their business.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Whether you\u2019re a B2B company, a B2C business, or both, you need quality content that reaches your target audience.
