Healthcare Content Marketing: Dos and Don’ts – Aquinnah Rank at KNB Communications (@KNBComm) says, What is healthcare content marketing? Content marketing focuses on creating, sharing, and distributing information in many forms that is not necessarily branded content. The content can take many forms: a video, social post, blog post (like the one you are reading right now), email, infographic, and more as long as it informs and provides value to your target audience. Your audience will be attracted to your company as a result of the relevant, quality content you provide. If your healthcare company isn’t using content marketing, you are missing out; it is absolutely central to the inbound marketing strategy.

A Quick Guide to Google Analytics 4 – Brendan Pescatore at Matter Communications (@MatterComm) writes, As we approach July, Google’s 2023 deadline for phasing out Universal Analytics (UA) looms large. For most sites, this means a collection of visitation data will cease, essentially forcing a migration to Google Analytics 4 (GA4). GA4 utilizes an entirely different data model, moving from hit-based events to user-focused conversion metrics. This development by Google is a response to the eventual phasing out of 3rd party cookies, to which marketers must adapt in an increasingly privacy-centric world.

What Do Marketing Agencies Do, Anyway? – Ashlee Sierra, Writer at Brafton (@Brafton) says, Have you ever seen a company so mysterious you can’t even tell what they do? They probably have some vague label that sounds like it came straight from an online business name generator. You’ve never heard anyone say they work there. Maybe you try to sneak a peek through the windows, but they’re tinted so dark that all you see is your own reflection, and then a masked guard bursts through the steel doors to chase you off. That’s precisely what it’s like to try figuring out what a marketing agency does.
