Repurposing content for growth, not channels | Brooklin Nash and Sam Hembree, Beam Content

Repurposing content for growth, not channels | Brooklin Nash and Sam Hembree, Beam Content

When you hear "repurpose your content" do you think about pushing to multiple channels? That's actually redistributing. Repurposing can—and should—go deeper than that. Brooklin Nash and Sam Hembree, co-founders of Beam Content, explain how a solid piece of rock content can work up and down the funnel, with multiple goals and KPIs, for multiple audiences.

We also touch on the To Gate or Not To Gate debate—aka, whether content lives behind a form to generate leads, while possibly preventing otherwise-interested, early-funnel audiences from engaging.
