Challenge 8: Unrealistic
expectations
![Page 12: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
In the area of content marketing, even the skilled content marketing players
have seen failures.
Here, the problem lies not in the content marketing but with the unrealistic
expectations set with it.
![Page 13: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Solution: In the initial phase, it’s not wise to go very hard and over
ambitious.
First, review the organic traffic and customer engagement programs. This whole analysis will inform you about your current conversion rate
and customer engagement.
Your content works in accordance with these statistics and so, take it slow. Don’t expect too much in the
very beginning!

![Page 15: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

making wonderful hits! Learn their strategies and the way they’re achieving excellence.
Learning how these content marketers beat the competition
will help you overcome this challenge!

Challenge 6: ‘Content Race’
![Page 18: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
In content marketing, everyone is running a rat race. Thousands of content marketers are doing it
just for selling.
So, the whole battle starts with the intention of ‘selling’ and
earning money.
But content does not sell, it adds value!
![Page 19: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Solution: If you want to stand out in the content race, the solution lies in doing it differently from
your competitors.
Rather than producing a plethora of content, keep it
limited to few unique pieces.
![Page 20: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Schedule your whole content plan so that along with
writing your content, you can test the results too.
If you’re not doing a complete evaluation of what content you are producing, the results can’t make you
stand out from the competition and crowd.
![Page 21: 10 outstanding tips to slay content marketing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042906/589bb9dc1a28ab082b8b4773/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Zeroing down on a subject area too
broadly or unclearly can put your brand in a
great trouble.

Solution: Start categorizing the content with the help of your
editorial or experts.• Look out for the relevant
topics and see how it works for you. • Do a good research and build
an idea factory. • Experiment it in different
ways.

content market you need to do things differently.
