7 ways to get employees to create terrific content
Engaging your employees as brand ambassadors will motivate them to invest more into all their daily efforts, as well as cultivating consumer trust in your brand.
A major challenge for business owners and marketers is coming up with relevant content that customers either need or want to engage with.
Taking a collaborative approach to these challenges often produces outstanding results, and you’ve got your best “brand experts” at your fingertips. Employees have the knowledge your customers need, and their seasoned expertise fosters more trust than any ad you’ll ever run.
Employee-generated content is so powerful because there’s a personality layer in each piece. It helps your organization to provide varied, expert information that matters to your customers.
