The challenge of scaling production
Trying to scale by producing more content is a trap. You run into the same limits of time and quality. Your team can only make so many videos before the quality starts to drop. The real opportunity is in making your existing work harder. You already have a library of great content. If you distribute it to one place, you only get one result. If you distribute it across fifty places, you get fifty results. That's the math you should be using as a CMO to justify your growth strategy.
Scaling through distribution
A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post your existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This is the most efficient way to scale. You get the benefits of a large-scale presence without the headache of managing a massive social media department. It's clean, efficient, and it delivers the results that leadership expects.
Empowering your creative team
Now that the distribution is automated, your team can get back to being creative. They can spend their time on the next big product launch, the next campaign idea, and the next set of tests that will move the needle. They aren't bogged down by the day-to-day work of managing accounts. You've given them the freedom to do what they were hired to do. This leads to higher job satisfaction, better work, and ultimately, a more successful marketing department for your company.
A CMO's path to growth
Success in marketing is about finding the best way to leverage your resources. When you stop trying to solve every problem with more people, you become a much more effective leader. Use the tools that give you the biggest return on your time and effort. The network-based approach to distribution is exactly the kind of leverage you need to build a powerful brand presence. Keep your team lean and focused, and use automated networks to drive the growth that will make your brand the leader in your market.
Scale your brand reach without hiring by using a managed network like TIDE to automate the distribution of your existing content.
