Get in front of the right audience.

9 things you can make for this, each composed from what your organization already knows and rendered in your brand.

01Why this one is hard

Getting in front of people is the one job where you compete with everything else on the page. What earns a second of attention is having something worth saying and sounding like yourselves while you say it. Most organizations have the first and lose it in the second.

03How you get there
  1. Pick who you are trying to reach. Your personas are already there, so the strategy is set against a real reader.
  2. Say what you want them to take away. Gyrium sets that point before it writes anything.
  3. It composes for the channel, so a post reads like a post and a keynote reads like a keynote.
  4. Everything is drawn from what you already hold, which is why it sounds like your organization and not like a model.
  5. Publish it, and what it used stays connected, so the next one starts further ahead.
