It\u2019s going to have everything you\u2019ve ever wanted in a home, but you\u2019re going to have to build it piece by piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ve picked out the perfect piece of land\u2026 next you\u2019ll have to pour the foundation, build each room, then install all of the amenities and features you want to make it comfortable. Each component you add to your home adds value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after the home is built, you can add on a pool, jacuzzi, guest house, and a tennis court. You can also add other features like solar panels for energy generation, a water reclamation system, or even a barn for animals to make your home as self-sustainable as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Throughout the whole process your home is appreciating and each addition makes it more valuable.&nbsp;Content is just like your dream home\u2026 it\u2019s an asset that you build.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The land is your brand\u2026 it starts out completely empty, but it\u2019s in a good location, and you think it will be more valuable once you develop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The home itself is your website. It\u2019s where your content will live, and where it will add the most value. All of your work, your assets, should be located here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This point is extremely important. What happens when all of your content is made on Facebook, TikTok, or Linkedin?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re making upgrades to Mark Zuckerberg\u2019s mansion. Don\u2019t worry, you\u2019ll still get that \u201cmade by John\u201d tag on the picture you hung on his wall, but it\u2019s enhancing his property value, not yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to build your home because it\u2019s really the only thing you truly own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dream home can be as big and upgraded as you want it to be. Is it going to be a massive ornate mansion or maybe a minimalistic contemporary structure with the latest tech upgrades?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The truth is that most businesses have a simple structure, just a garage, with almost nothing in it and very few features that add value.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Content marketing is often misunderstood because it\u2019s like real estate\u2026 it\u2019s valuable but it takes time, effort, and money to develop, and the big fat payday is some time in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that, like your dream home, you get value from it every day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s where you live. You keep and organize your possessions there. You show it off to your community to prove how successful you are. It\u2019s an embodiment of your style, knowledge, and how you live your life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the whole system we\u2019re describing is called the Content Development &amp; Appraisal framework, as known as the CDA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Content Development &amp; Appraisal Framework<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.digitalmarketer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"The Content Development &amp; Appraisal Framework is a new way to look at content marketing.\" class=\"wp-image-163117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_2.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Content Development and Appraisal Framework is a three stage process that will allow you to create <strong>endless streams of content in a systematic and scalable manner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going back to our real estate analogy, this would be a series of architectural blueprints that you\u2019ll be using to both build and upgrade your dream home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This plan is intended to help you take meaningful, cohesive action from the start.

The knowledge you gained from the Knowledge stage will guide your general content direction and give you the information you need to identify Content Opportunities and Content Purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using those pieces of information you\u2019ll define a Content Theme and finally a Content Structure for each objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Content Structure involves defining 5 types of data: Macro-Category, Micro-Category, Content Series, Pillar Pieces, and Support Pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A properly executed Content Structure will yield unlimited amounts of content in a systematic and consistent manner.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting with 5-8 Macro-Categories broken down into 3-5 Micro-Categories, you\u2019ll then create 5-10 Content Series (think of them like short-run Netflix shows).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Content Series is a singular group of information based around a central piece of content called the Pillar Piece. A Pillar Piece is a long-form article, video, or podcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The information within the Primary Piece will be used to create Support Pieces in the form of short form articles, videos, and podcasts, in addition to quote graphics, banner, infographics, gifs, and other media types that will eventually be used for distribution through other marketing methods like email marketing, social media marketing, and paid advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll combine the information and results of stages one and two to create your content plan (which we call your Content Blueprint).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stage 3: Production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.digitalmarketer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Production is the third stage of the Content Development and Appraisal Framework.\" class=\"wp-image-163121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dmwsprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/ContentMarketingStrategy_NewWay_Production_6.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Stage 3 is Production.

Each revolution of this process will depend on your business and objectives, but the overall effect will be the same for each business that executes it\u2026 that being a consistent flow of content that adds value to your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Execute the Content Development &amp; Appraisal Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If all of these terms and processes sound complicated, don\u2019t fret!
