You can prevent that with a robust content marketing management plan. Here\u2019s how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"13-1-conduct-a-three-way-content-audit\">1. Conduct a three-way content audit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you go shopping (i.e., creating a content marketing management plan), you need a shopping list (i.e., content audit). So, conduct thorough reviews of the following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Existing content<\/strong> for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Topics you cover and those you miss<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Site architecture and organization of your content<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Language, tone, style and other brand elements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social media channels and audience reach<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Team capabilities<\/strong> for size, skills for creation\/distribution of content, budgets, and subject matter expertise you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Competition landscape<\/strong> for topics covered, ideas that work, influencer collaborations, offers, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"14-2-brainstorm-content-ideas\">2. Brainstorm content ideas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The content audit should give you an idea of what you need to do to be effective in your content plan. Now, gather your team for brainstorming sessions to come up with content ideas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/features\/whiteboards\">ClickUp Whiteboards<\/a> to discuss ideas together as a team. Move topics around, organize, plan, and schedule, all in one place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you\u2019re doing this, sometimes, the topics you list might feel random. So, create a map of the topics. SEO teams use the content pillars approach or the hub-and-spoke model to organize themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/features\/mind-maps\">ClickUp Mind Maps<\/a> to create an architecture\/hierarchy of ideas. Node-based mind maps also enable you to connect ideas, building a neural network of content you\u2019re creating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Share with the team and collect feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1274\" height=\"944\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/share-mind-map.png\" alt=\"ClickUp mind map\" class=\"wp-image-129258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/share-mind-map.png 1274w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/share-mind-map-300x222.png 300w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/share-mind-map-768x569.png 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/share-mind-map-700x519.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1274px) 100vw, 1274px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Map your ideas with ClickUp Mind Maps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"15-3-make-the-content-plan\">3. Make the content plan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the high-energy brainstorming is done, organize the ideas to put them into action.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Identify topics<\/strong>: List everything you can create content about to help your chosen target audience. Think tangentially. You can also use <a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/ai-marketing-tools\/\">AI marketing tools<\/a> for ideation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, if you\u2019re selling fountain pens, you can obviously make content about your products. You can also create engaging content about the history of writing instruments, the latest tech, and complementary products like inks, storage, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of the entire landscape and list ideas accordingly. Go from idea to action by converting nodes into trackable ClickUp tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" src=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-1400x1050.png\" alt=\"ClickUp tasks\" class=\"wp-image-156055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-1400x1050.png 1400w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks-700x525.png 700w, https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/ClickUp-tasks.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">ClickUp tasks to manage content creation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Write briefs<\/strong>: Once you leave the brainstorming table, your team will forget everything you discussed. So, note them down. ClickUp Docs is a great note-taking tool while you\u2019re brainstorming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, create a detailed brief for each content piece, outlining the topic, target audience, keywords, and objectives. Also include what format you need the content in, such as video, audio, infographic, images, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/features\/docs\">ClickUp Docs<\/a> can help manage these briefs. You can also use the description part of the task view. Don\u2019t have the time? Use <a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/ai\">ClickUp Brain<\/a> to whip up briefs in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Set acceptability criteria<\/strong>: Set content creators up for success by clearly stating what they need to achieve. For instance, this could be the number of words, inclusion of keywords, credible sources, Grammarly check, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Checklists on ClickUp tasks is a great way to ensure this.
