Posted on: 9th by December 2024 by Jenna Fort, Happy Marketing Executive.
You know you need content to grow and scale, but when it comes to content marketing you don’t know where to begin? What should you share? And who has the time or resources to execute it effectively? If this resonates, you’re not alone—and the good news is, you don’t have to stay stuck. A smart, engaging content strategy supports scaling businesses with transformational growth.
The Content Roundabout: Keep the Wheels Turning by Driving Engagement and Growth
Imagine your content strategy as a roundabout. New users are constantly entering, exploring your brand, and engaging with your offerings, while others exit when they’ve found their destination—your solution. Keeping the ‘content engine ticking over’ ensures this steady flow, giving you a healthy pipeline of potential customers ready to take action.
Here’s how it works:
- Create and share diverse, engaging content: It could be a series of blog posts, informative whitepapers, fun behind-the-scenes videos or eye-catching graphics, the key is variety and relevance.
- Your audience interacts and engages: People are attracted to things that are new, informative, relevant and interesting. They click, comment, share or buy.
- Your business gains momentum: With every engagement, your scaling business becomes more visible and trustworthy, leading to more awareness, clicks and likes.
Feeling Stuck? You’re Not Alone.
Does your content strategy feel like you’re stuck in a traffic jam—going nowhere fast? You’re not alone. Stale content can make your efforts feel like a standstill, which is frustrating and unproductive.
- You know you should be creating content but don’t know where to start.
- Time is stretched too thin to produce content consistently.
- Your existing content feels stale, and your audience isn’t engaging.

Keep Traffic Flowing with Fun and Valuable Content
Content is not just words on a screen. It can be videos, graphics, or pictures that engage the target audience, make them smile or simplify something that may be difficult to understand. Here's how to keep your audience engaged:
- Videos: Videos make your brand feel more relatable. People are more likely to remember what they see in motion.
- Images: Picture make your content visually appealing. Whether it’s striking product photos or eye-catching graphics that reflect your brand’s personality, images attract attention.
- Interactive Content: Polls, quizzes, and challenges are a great way to make your audience part of the experience. Plus, they’re shareable!
- Graphics: Breaking up text with vibrant graphics that explain a process or share statistics in a digestible way can really help your audience.
Don’t Forget the Signposts
Great content also means being a helpful guide. Signpost valuable resources such as:
- Leadership Pieces: Share industry insights or in-depth whitepapers that establish your authority.
- How-To Guides: Help your audience solve their problems with actionable, practical advice.
- Case Studies: Show them how you’ve helped others succeed—and how you can do the same for them.
