Deep dives

Building a Content Team for Different Revenue Levels

When establishing a content team, the structure should adapt according to the company's revenue. For businesses generating zero to one million in revenue, the team should consist of the founder, who must create content, a part-time creator for testing and repackaging content, and a group of ambassadors sourced from customer lists. The focus at this stage is on grassroots content creation that resonates with the audience, emphasizing storytelling and personal engagement. As revenue increases through each of the defined stages from one to five million and beyond, the content team can grow to include dedicated creators for various funnel stages and an overall content strategy manager.
