On the 11th day of #techmas @badassebs sent to me, 11 Content Classes
Technology is simply a tool and whether your business model is content creation or you’re creating content to communicate during the course of running your businesses, digital tools lighten the load and have a far wider impact. I’d love to find fashion trade content that effectively embraces these, too many forget the essentials or worse never quite get it!
It is for the end user and needs to reflect their best interest, needs a & concerns
It is about the Brand, it’s authenticity and it’s value
Remember the why…
This curation originally looked at Robin Goods; “The Ultimate Guide To Editorial Content Types and Formats”
But while preparing I could not help but reference the Conversation Prism and tat break down of communication tools…
As you read think of how these eleven content classes can impact your bottom line and sever to meet teh needs of your cohorts!

Making tech relevant to real people is my passion! This entire series brings tools forward that should be explored. Too often I meet individuals with great social number and little impact and even less financial gain. if all you produce is 10 items or 50 items a month 300000 followers make no difference if they are not interested in what you sell! There is however an opportunity maybe to entertain or educate, or to build perception of value… hence the importance of strategy!
During 2015 January- March we take on the various level with the actual responsibilites needed to execute within several creative tech niches… a practice i’ve adopted for teh last 3 years to increase efficiency and augment my results!
