What’s your biggest marketing challenge?

If you need amazing content that gets the job done and more, but you’re done in by data and bemused by buzzwords, then you’ve come to the right place.

• Your website is a just a shop window. You might get visitors, but you don’t know how to reel ‘em in.
• You’ve heard about content marketing, but you thought it meant being happy at work.
• The only thing you know about branding is that you can remember the slogans for KitKat and potato waffles (they’re waffly versatile).
• Your digital marketing strategy involves following your competitors’ accounts and posting pictures of your pets.
• You have social media accounts set up, and the apps are on your phone, but they get as much interest as the coffee cream in a box of chocolates.

Let’s make your marketing work

If you’re thinking ‘yeah, that sounds like me, how did Dan know? Is he psychic, or just as talented as he is beardy?’ then here’s how we can help:

• Channel your knowledge and passion for what you do. We’ll create a cracking website that brings in leads and converts to sales in no time.
• Design a bold brand identity that stands out and sticks in people’s minds.
• Plan a content strategy and calendar that makes your goals reachable.
• Showcase your expertise with content that positions you as the go-to authority in your field

Create social media posts that amplify your message like a rockin’ drum solo in a library.

Sounds good, right? Here’s how we’re gonna do it.

Step 1: Book a zoom/phone call.

Step 2: Make some small talk > realise we’re going to be firm friends > get down to business.

Step 3: You can sit back, relax, and stop stressing while I do my thing. Boom.

[ABOUT]

It’s Dan the Content Man!

Who is behind Ritch Digital?

Well hello there. I’m Dan Pritchard, the Bearded wonder. I’m a self-taught, passionate, content whizzkid.

Hang on, are you a one-man-band or an agency?

Sometimes I fly solo. I also have a crack team of content superheroes at my fingertips, ready to fulfil all your content needs. And, I have my trusty feline sidekicks – Frankie and Cosmo – always ready to lend a helping paw.

I’m also a multi-skilled designer, marketer, strategist, trainer, explainer, helping hand, chief cook and bottle-washer.  And if I can’t help you, I’ll definitely know someone who can.

What you’ll get from working with me:

Friendly – I’m approachable and easy to get on with. You’ll see that when we chat. We’re probably going to be mates.

Straightforward – I’m all about being helpful. I’ll use plain English and walk you through all the stuff you need to know.

Expertise – You’ll be hiring someone who really knows their onions.

Flexibility – You can hire me when you need me and I can fit in around your timescale.

What you won’t get from me:

A sales spiel – I’m not a born salesman and I don’t have the gift of the gab. Which is why I love content marketing – I can use my expertise to get customers coming to you.

So, tell us more about yourself, Dan.

I’m based in Maidstone, Kent, and I was a printer before I became a content bod. My Grandad was a printer too and I followed in his footsteps for over 20 years. Over time, I was drawn more to the design and digital side of things, so I trained myself up, and here we are. I’m fascinated by content marketing, and I love to teach people how it can help their business.

Figure 1 Archive image of me and my Grandad

Who’s in your support bubble?

I’ve been married to the lovely Kayt for XX years. We have two mischievous daughters – Livvie and Maddie.

What about your feline friends?

Our cats are the heart of our family.

We have Frankie, our 8 year old girl. She’s a proper diva – grumpy as hell and doesn’t like anyone.

Then we have Cosmo, our chilled-out boy. He likes everyone and everything, and is desperate for Frankie’s attention.

Finally we have Luna – the late, great Luna-Tic. Sadly she’s recently departed, but will forever live on in her cartoon form.

What do you do for fun?

I love to play cricket. My proudest moment was winning the Wisden cricketer of the month award when I took 8 wickets for 0 runs. If you don’t know what that means – it’s seriously impressive. I’m also a footie fan but I confine my appreciation to the sofa these days.

How can I make my website better?

Is your website your best worker?

Your website should work hard for you. It’s not a static brochure or catalogue – it’s a business asset that needs to be constantly evolving.

However, many websites don’t work as hard as they could. They don’t rank highly, bring in visitors, explain services well or convert prospects.

If you’ve invested in a good website, it should bring you new business and pay for itself in no time. We know that optimising your site’s design, build and content can transform your business, so give us a shout if this sounds like what you need.

WordPress Specialists

Our websites are built in WordPress which is a content management system that allows you to edit and add to your site once it’s designed and live.

WordPress is the fastest growing Content Management System (CMS). Why? It’s user friendly, has the biggest choice of themes and plugins on the market and is constantly updating and evolving.

Using WordPress means you will be able to maintain your finished site. And we’re happy to teach you to do that yourself, or take the hassle away with one of our maintenance [link to maintenance service page] packages.

We also offer hosting. Web hosting means we give your website its plot of internet land and make sure it’s visible to everyone. See our hosting services for info on how we do things.

CONTENT MARKETING

Are you struggling to reach your ideal client?

Do you spend too much time dealing with time-wasters?

Content Marketing can help solve these problems AND grow your presence online.

What is content marketing?

Content marketing (also called “Inbound” marketing) means putting material like videos, blogs, and information on your website to stimulate interest in your products or services. It can also mean using tools like email and social media to drive people to your website.

Content marketing is a brilliant way to become the go-to expert in your industry, or set yourself up as the authority in a particular field. It’s about knowing your target audience really well, and producing materials they will find helpful and interesting.

Tell me more about content marketing

1. Support the buyer journey

Nowadays, people spend a great deal of time doing research online before making a purchase. By making buyers aware of you beforehand, you can speed them along the decision-making process. Content can be designed for each stage of the buyer’s journey. You can direct customers to all sorts of content such as explainer videos, infographics, FAQs and testimonials to help them choose to buy from you.

2. Create loyalty

Great content creates a positive experience for your customers and makes them come back for more. Why? Because they know you’re a great source of reliable information, giving you credibility.

3. Showcase Expertise

Content is a great way to showcase your expertise and provide valuable answers to your audience’s questions. Customers are more likely to trust you if you are a well-known authority in your field.

4. Get better results from your social media

Social media isn’t all about how many followers you have. Through great content, you can get your audience genuinely involved in what you do – interacting, sharing and becoming loyal. Quality content will bring you a better quality audience.

5. Build strong relationships.

Helpful and engaging content can help you build strong relationships. When your content shows up exactly where your audience are, it’ll improve your reputation. You can then answer questions and interact with your customers, creating a positive association with your business and building a solid base of fans who will spread the word for you.

6. Lead generation

Content marketing is a great way of generating leads. When an audience views memorable or useful content, they’ll become more likely to buy from you in the future. And if you prompt them with a well-placed Call To Action, you can convert them into customers.

7. Boost your SEO

The more consistent, high quality content you produce, the better you’re likely to rank in search results. Search engines want relevant, quality content for their users. So give them what they want, and boost your SEO.

THE PROCESS

How does it work then?

1 – We chat

We talk about what you want to achieve with your business and how frequently you’d like to create content. We’ll ask you lots of questions about your target audience so we know what they’ll respond to.

2 – We plan

We use your goals and audience insights to create a content plan tailored to your business. So you know what’s coming and when, and can track the progress towards your goals.

3 – Research and/or interviews

We carry out in-depth research into the subject of your content to ensure what we write is relevant, up-to-date and original. Sometimes we might record a quick video to extract your expert knowledge, either as a source of information or, if you’re comfortable, to speak directly to your audience.

4 – Content creation

Your best asset is your expertise, so we will harness this to create the best possible content. That may be detailed blog posts, slick videos or other useful assets that you will be able to use long into the future. We can advise you on what we think is the best content for your situation.

5 – Repurpose content

Repurposing content helps you get value for money. By extracting bite-sized graphics, videos and social media posts from an in-depth piece of content, we can make your investment stretch much further. These can be shared to spread the word about the content gold that’s living on your website and give easy-to-digest, helpful insights to your audience.

6 – Increase your web traffic

Over time, you will build up a brilliant collection of content that answers your clients’ questions and gives a real insight into how doing business with you works. As your website grows in authority and climbs the rankings, more and more people will start to visit your website as it becomes the go-to place for knowledge about your industry.

FAQs

Q – What is Content Marketing?

A – Content marketing is about creating and distributing valuable, relevant information to attract your target audience and ultimately, drive sales.

Q – Shouldn’t I keep my expert knowledge to myself?

A – By educating customers, they will look to you as the subject matter expert and therefore a safe place to buy from. Showing expertise builds loyalty, trust and long-term relationships.

Q – How will I know if content marketing is a success?

A – You can measure success through many metrics, such as a growth in followers, enquiries or more sales. However, analytics can easily show you the popularity of a single piece of content, exactly what a website visitor does on your website, and if they became a client after viewing your content.

Q – Will all this content help my sales team?

A – Most businesses spend a big percentage of their time answering the same questions over and over again. If you have content that answers these questions, your sales team can simply direct their prospects to the relevant piece. This will free up their time to follow up more leads.

Q – Is Content Marketing going to help me talk to my ideal customer?

A – The beauty of content is that you can tailor it to the needs of your ideal customer. Not only will it help you attract the type of customer you love to do business with, but also filter out those tricky clients that always seem to take up more time but very rarely buy.

Q – Why would I want to turn interested people away?

A – In short – to get more of the people you want. We’ve all had prospects who seemed interested in our offering only to tell us at the end that they don’t want to go ahead. The right content can help you filter out time-wasters, by being really specific and screening out those who aren’t genuine buyers.

SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMISATION

What is SEO?

SEO is about making your website search engine friendly. This means using certain techniques to make your site as visible, relevant and searchable as possible.

Why do I need SEO?
