Any marketing claim you make that doesn’t have some form of evidence is a weak statement.
Unsupported claims just lead to undifferentiated content, a lack of trust, and low conversions.
But proof on your web pages and in your content does the opposite. It builds credibility and gives people a reason to believe in your brand.
One piece of content that offers social proof, acts as conversion copy, and works in a content strategy: case studies.
In this episode, Andy Crestodina, the co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of Orbit Media Studios, explains how proof is the key to every type of marketing, whether you’re playing the long game of account-based marketing (ABM) or building your email list.
Show Topics
- Use case studies to build trust
