Re-Thinking Your Content Assembly Line

While many companies have established processes in place for producing content within predictable schedules and budgets, many of these processes are essentially assembly lines—with content moving from silo to silo, with fairly blind handovers in-between (from researcher to planner to writer to designer, etc.).

But great content can’t be made the same way we make toaster ovens.
It’s unique. Crafted. Specific to its audience, market and strategic context.

This on-demand Content Marketing Institute webinar, sponsored by OpenText Hightail, examines the problems with the assembly line approach to content creation, and why you should consider an alternative that’s far more collaborative and creative (and also leads to way better content).

You will learn:

  • Why most content teams default to an assembly-line approach
  • How content assembly lines can limit creativity and close down options
  • Best practices for breaking down silos and getting your team really working together
  • The types of content that shouldn’t come from an assembly line, and why a “content group hug” is often a better approach
