What is Content Management?
If you were a band, the last thing you would want is for every single member to play out of tune during a performance.
When you are marketing, you want your content and messaging to represent your brand throughout all platforms. Your different instruments need to be tuned together to create the most effective message, that will resonate with your audience.
At May Media, our Content Management services work to align your brand messaging throughout all of your vehicles. Whether it’s paid or organic, we specialize in making companies messaging consistent and efficient on all platforms. While different platforms have different demographics and requirements, your brand should still be represented in a synonymous way.
This doesn’t mean that you need a one-size-fits-all plan. In fact, it means quite the opposite. Your content plan should reflect your audiences’ habits with each platform, and understand where it fits into the buying process. Your content pushes need to be geared around seasonal sales potential, keyword gaps, and areas you need traffic in.
With May Media’s Content Management retainer, you will have a team of account executives planning, analyzing, coaching, and refining your company’s marketing systems to create the most efficient content. From blogs, to social media, to advertising copy, and more- we will ensure your brand is moving forward with each push.

- Workflows for social media, blogs, video production, project management, meetings, and much more to make your marketing more efficient, and organized.
- Experienced account planning for anything from billboards to blogs to maximize the profits of your advertising spend.

Content and Search Engine Optimization
If you are looking to build a comprehensive online presence, it is crucial to have an integrated plan that pushes content out on a regular basis.
Search engines algorithms are looking for you to refresh old content, and continually be pushing out new, relevant content to your audience. If the content being served to your audience continually underperforms and you don’t change anything, it can hurt your SEO efforts.
From your blog, to social media posts, to your videos, and much more – you need to have a plan that supplements platforms, and works to drive the most traffic and awareness. When you build up your subject matter authority, Google rewards you by ranking your page higher. Search engines want to see users engaging with different forms of your content, that answer their questions and keep them satisfied.
When a user is happy with the result of their search, not only do you benefit, but so does Google- it is in their best interest to keep promoting top interacting websites.

What’s Your Next Step?
Schedule a discovery call, and let’s begin the process of discussing your business. The discovery call is a short call to make sure we can serve your business, and get to know a little bit about each other’s services.
After the discovery call, we recommend for all of our clients to go through a Marketing Evaluation. This allows us to find gaps, opportunities and options for your marketing/advertising going forward. It also allows both of our teams to truly understand each other, and build the proper relationship for growth.
