Exploring HubSpot's Content Hub: A Game-Changer for Streamlined Marketing
With the rise of new channels and diverse content formats, it’s no longer just about lead generation - it’s about building an entire customer experience. But while the opportunities have expanded, so have the challenges.
The shift in content marketing
Gone are the days when keyword-stuffed blogs were enough to get click-through and engage audiences. Today, content marketing is more dynamic and complex, involving a wide range of formats like video, podcasts, webinars and live events.
As marketers, we need to adapt to this evolving landscape by creating more diverse content and managing multiple campaigns across various platforms. However, the increasing number of tools required to execute these strategies can be overwhelming. When content becomes outdated or off-brand due to changing technologies, staying relevant while juggling different tools is not always easy.
Doing more with less
On top of this challenge is the reality that marketers are often expected to do more with less. Budgets, and sometimes teams, are shrinking but the demand for high-quality content keeps growing.
Despite these hurdles, content marketing remains one of the most effective ways to build brand awareness, drive customer engagement, and nurture leads. So, how can you consistently create high-quality, engaging content that builds trust and drives revenue?
Reinventing Content Strategy with AI-Powered Solutions
The key to succeeding in today’s content landscape lies in reinventing your content strategy - and AI is leading the way. Despite wanting to fight robots taking our jobs, at Disruptive we realise that unless we learn to work alongside them, we’ll be on the back foot when it comes to cutting edge marketing technology. We also know that human creativity and intuition can’t be replaced, but we know that there are some tools which can make life easier and more efficient.
As HubSpot Solutions Partners, we were pretty excited to get to try out their Content Hub. It’s an AI-powered content marketing platform that helps marketers create, manage, and optimise content to supercharge the entire customer journey.
What Is HubSpot's Content Hub?
HubSpot’s Content Hub expands on its existing content tools and utilises AI in ways that are genuinely helpful, time-efficient, and capacity-increasing.
Whether you’re managing blog posts, landing pages, social media campaigns, or SEO strategies, the Content Hub brings everything under one roof, allowing you to create multi-platform campaigns.
The idea is to provide a seamless experience for teams to plan, create, optimise, and track content performance, all while integrating directly with broader marketing and sales initiatives.
Here’s how it works:
AI-Powered Content Creation
With AI-driven tools, you can generate fresh ideas, topics, and keywords with ease. Features like Content Remix let you repurpose one piece of content into multiple formats, and take a single landing page or blog post and create the relevant material around it - such as social posts, ads and even podcasts (though we’re not entirely convinced by the current range of stock voiceovers!)
It can help you create case studies based on you inputting simple information, which is a brilliant time saver and ensures consistency throughout. You can also create sections of content in HubSpot and then embed them into your HubSpot or WordPress website. It’s a shame they currently don’t integrate with Squarespace - but seeing as it’s a newish feature this might come in time.
Their ‘Brand Voice’ tool ensures your messaging remains consistent - and by uploading a paragraph written in your tone it’s able to tweak any piece of text to match (which is pretty cool).
Centralised Content Management
With Content Hub, all your content is stored in one place, allowing you to manage a variety of formats across multiple channels, without the need for multiple tools.
It also lets you set up access groups that allow you to control which of your users have access to which content on your websites - which is great if you want to publish client-only or membership-based content.
Content Optimisation
The Content Hub combines powerful reporting tools and CRM integration to gain valuable insights into how your content is performing. It also has the ability to personalise and optimise your content to increase reach, conversions and engagement.
Empowering marketers to do more
In an era where marketers are expected to do more with less, Content Hub is one solution that helps you streamline your content strategy, freeing you to focus on what truly matters - delivering a great client experience. With the potential to increase your output, it’s a useful tool for marketing teams with limited resources.
Many of our clients have small marketing teams with finite capacity and ambitious goals, and so from our perspective, it’s an exciting opportunity to help them solve the challenge of creating relevant content across multiple platforms.
