MAICON 2019 – Governing The Content Engine with AI
When people talk about Content Governance, they’re really talking about Content Strategy – understanding what content is for, then taking active steps to ensure it meets its goals. Companies spend millions creating, translating, distributing and promoting content: everything from marketing content (web pages, product sheets and ‘top-of-funnel’ content marketing…) to technical content (in the product itself and in documentation, support materials, user manuals, and training programs). The problem is this: these millions are not seeing a return. In fact, in all too many cases, content causes more problems than it solves—wasting money, clogging up processes and, worst of all, confusing customers. As the content-fuelled customer experience grows in importance, this approach is becoming increasingly unsustainable. This session is for anyone who cares about the goals of the business and understands the role of content in achieving them. You could be in marketing. If you understand the problem and want to solve it, this one is for you.
