Or what makes them connect with their audience in an authentic and emotional way? If so, know that the answer is very simple: they invest in <strong>branded content<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is branded content?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also known as <strong>branded content<\/strong>is a <strong>marketing strategy<\/strong> which aims to create and distribute relevant, interesting and useful content for the target audience, without focusing on the direct sale of products or services. The aim is to generate value, trust and engagement, strengthening the brand's image and reputation.<\/span><\/p><figure id=\"attachment_12445\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12445\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12445\" src=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/conceito-de-marketing-comercial-de-publicidade-de-branding-de-marca.jpg\" alt=\"conceito de marketing comercial de publicidade de branding de marca\" width=\"740\" height=\"676\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/conceito-de-marketing-comercial-de-publicidade-de-branding-de-marca.jpg 740w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/conceito-de-marketing-comercial-de-publicidade-de-branding-de-marca-300x274.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/conceito-de-marketing-comercial-de-publicidade-de-branding-de-marca-13x12.jpg 13w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12445\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">commercial marketing branding advertising concept<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The concept of branded content is not new and its origins are often attributed to various companies. However, it emerged in the 1930s, when Procter &amp; Gamble sponsored radio programs aimed at housewives, with the aim of creating emotional connections with this target audience.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then, branded content has evolved and adapted to new media and platforms, such as magazines, television, cinema, the internet and social networks, among others. The important thing is that the content is relevant, original and aligned with the brand's personality and consumer expectations.<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why invest in branded content?<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Investing in branded content brings several benefits for businesses, such as:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It increases the brand's visibility and reputation: by producing quality and valuable content, the brand becomes better known and respected by the public and the market. What's more, this content can be shared on social networks, which increases the brand's audience and exposure on the web.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/en\/marketing-digital\/o-que-as-agencias-de-marketing-podem-fazer-pela-sua-empresa-na-internet\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">internet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a lasting relationship with consumers: by offering content that generates value and emotion for consumers, the brand creates a deeper connection and builds customer loyalty.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It generates authority and credibility: by demonstrating knowledge and expertise about its segment, the brand positions itself as a reference and a reliable source of information.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It differentiates the brand from the competition: by creating unique and original content, the brand stands out from the competition and shows its differentials.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increases sales and profit: by creating content that educates, informs and entertains the public, the brand generates more interest and desire for its products or services, positively influencing the purchasing decision.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Successful brand content<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to the Protect&amp;Gamble case we mentioned earlier, another example of successful branded content is that of<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bh1.com.br\/administracao-de-marketing\/red-bull-e-o-branded-content\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Red Bull<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The energy drink company creates a range of content related to the world of extreme sports, such as videos, documentaries, events, magazines, materials for TV and cinema, among others.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following the logic of branded content, this content doesn't talk directly about the product. But rather about the lifestyle, emotions and experiences it provides. With bold and well-planned strategies, Red Bull has become one of the world's most popular and admired brands in its segment.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch the video below, in which professional motorcyclist Robbie Maddison jumps over the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, France. Guess who sponsored the event?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please embed video in article: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MLejkyXbJlc<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Netflix is no exception and also invests in branded content to create an emotional connection with its target audience. For the launch of the series Orange Is The New Black, the streaming brand made a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/paidpost\/netflix\/women-inmates-separate-but-not-equal.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sponsored content for The New York Times<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She spoke about the needs and challenges of American women in prison.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Branded content vs. content marketing<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, these two terms are often confused, but they are not synonymous.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content marketing is part of branded content. It consists of creating and distributing relevant content to attract, educate and convert leads into customers.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, branded content goes further. This is because branded content seeks to create and distribute content that tells stories, generates emotions and creates connections with the public.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a nutshell, we can say that content marketing focuses on the sales funnel, while branded content focuses on the customer journey.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that doesn't mean that these two strategies are opposed or mutually exclusive. On the contrary! In fact, they can complement each other to improve the customer experience and increase sales.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ideal is to combine both types of content, creating a balance between information and inspiration.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role of branded content in the customer experience<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The customer experience is the set of perceptions, feelings and emotions that the consumer has in relation to the brand, from the first contact to after-sales.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/en\/branding\/branding-7-motivos-para-investir\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">branded content<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one of the elements that influences this experience, as it helps to create an emotional connection between the brand and the customer, generating satisfaction, loyalty and recommendation. Branded content can:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attract visitors to your website, blog or social network by generating qualified traffic;<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Convert visitors into leads by creating content that educates and informs your audience about your products or services;<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a lasting relationship with your leads, keeping them interested in your brand and preparing them for a purchase;<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sell more and better with content designed to persuade and influence your leads to make a purchasing decision;<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Delight your customers after their purchase, generating satisfaction and loyalty, increasing the chances of recommendations and new purchases.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to create branded content efficiently?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contrary to popular belief, it's not enough to just create random content and hope that it's successful. Absolutely not! You need to follow a few steps to ensure that they are relevant, interesting and useful to your audience. Here are some of them:<\/span><\/p><figure id=\"attachment_12446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12446\" style=\"width: 1060px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12446\" src=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente.jpg\" alt=\"colagem do conceito de experi\u00eancia do cliente\" width=\"1060\" height=\"706\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente.jpg 1060w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmlo.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/colagem-do-conceito-de-experiencia-do-cliente-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1060px) 100vw, 1060px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">bonding the concept of customer experience<\/figcaption><\/figure><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Define your target audience and your objectives<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step to creating effective branded content is to get to know your audience's characteristics, needs, pains, desires and interests. That way, you can create content that suits their profile and expectations.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It's also important to know what results you hope to achieve with the strategy. Do you want to increase your recognition? Or your credibility in the market? Or perhaps the engagement of your followers? Or sales?<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose your channels<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you've defined your target audience and your strategy objectives, it's time to choose the platforms where you're going to distribute your branded content. You can publish your content on websites, blogs, social networks, etc. However, you should always take into account the behavior and preferences of your audience.<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create relevant content<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not least because this is a basic principle of branded content.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So create content that is useful, interesting and valuable to your audience, that solves their problems, answers their questions, teaches them something new or entertains them.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But remember that your content must also be original and creative, showing your brand's personality.<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make strategic partnerships<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also partner with other brands, influencers or media outlets that have an affinity with your target audience and your values.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can broaden your reach, increase your credibility and generate more value for your audience.<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Measure the results<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, track and analyze the data and metrics of your branded content, such as traffic, clicks, shares, comments, likes, conversions, and more. This can help you assess whether your objectives are being achieved and identify points for improvement.<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doing branded content on your own or with a marketing and advertising agency?<\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we've seen in this article, branded content is an important strategy for companies that want to stand out in an increasingly competitive landscape, as it helps to create an emotional connection with consumers, turning them into loyal customers and brand advocates.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But can you do it all by yourself?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth is that creating effective branded content is no easy task.
