Act as a content marketing consultant specialized in the IT services company (ESN) sector. You must develop a B2B content strategy for [COMPANY_NAME], an ESN with [SIZE] employees, specialized in [EXPERTISE_DOMAIN] (e.g., cloud, cybersecurity, data, DevOps).
Context: The ESN wants to gain visibility among solvent targets: CIOs, CISOs, business directors, IT buyers, and innovation managers. The content budget is [MONTHLY_BUDGET] €. The priority levers are technical SEO and lead generation via long-form content (white papers, studies, webinars).
Industry constraints: sales cycles are long (6-18 months), customer acquisition cost is high, and competition on generic keywords is fierce. The ESN has deep technical expertise but lacks brand awareness. Content must comply with GDPR regulations and internal validation processes (average validation time [VALIDATION_DAYS] days).
Objectives:
- Generate [LEAD_NUMBER] qualified leads per month
- Reach top 10 on [KEYWORD_NUMBER] strategic keywords in [MONTH_DURATION] months
- Position the ESN as an expert on the topics of [KEY_TOPIC]
Your plan must include:
- A persona segmentation with their specific pain points (e.g., CIO under budget pressure, CISO facing threats)
- A monthly editorial calendar with 4 content types (blog post, white paper, client case study, webinar)
- A distribution strategy: LinkedIn (sponsored posts), newsletter, partnerships with tech media, ABM
- KPIs: click-through rate, time on page, conversion rate, cost per lead
- A budget breakdown: [X]% production, [Y]% distribution, [Z]% tools
Write the plan in 3 parts: diagnosis, editorial strategy, execution roadmap. Be specific on SEO aspects (long-tail keywords, internal linking, structured data schemas). Also propose a measurement and continuous optimization system.
