EP 113. Empathy insights to improve your Summer storytelling content. What do U.S. adults, parents, college students, young kids, and maturing elders look for during the Summer, and what stresses them out year-round? Listen to these insights to see if they spark any content ideas, or tweaks to help your Summer content better resonate with your target audience(s).
Marketing With Empathy® is all about connecting with an audience through brand storytelling. Empathy is a crucial part of brand storytelling, and that requires understanding your audience.
To ready your content marketing plans for summer, this episode focuses on empathy insights I’ve gathered from multiple demographics in the United States, including adults, parents, college students, kids and the elderly.
The best way to learn the feelings and desires of your audience is to analyze data, so I’m breaking down popular search terms, stressors, motivations, and more. I use these empathy insights and my FED (Focus, Empathy, Data) method to develop strategic storytelling plans for clients, so I also apply it in this episode to guide you in marketing to your target audience.
As you listen to this episode, take note of any ideas these insights may spark for your summer content plans!
