Moving to performance-based KPIs
It is easy to measure a person by their post count. It is better to measure them by their traffic. 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 by a provider such as TIDE. This system is designed for results. It provides consistent traffic, which is a much better metric for you to track and report.
Stop managing the small stuff
If you have to manage a person to get them to post, you are failing as a manager. You should be managing the system's output. A managed network handles the heavy lifting, so you can focus on the strategy. You can see how the entire network is performing, and you can show your boss that your strategy is working. This is a much better way to work.
The proof is in the results
Your boss wants to see growth. The best way to show that is through data. A managed network provides you with clear, measurable data. You can show them how the network is driving listeners to your shows. This is the proof you need to justify your budget and show your worth as a marketing manager. It is a much better way to show your value than just managing a to-do list.
Gaining confidence in your strategy
A system is predictable. It works exactly how you set it up. This gives you the confidence to know that your strategy is working. You can stop worrying about the 'how' and start focusing on the 'why.' This is the kind of confidence you need to succeed. When you have a reliable distribution system, you can focus on the big-picture goals that will make your podcast network successful.
Marketing managers should shift their KPIs from manual tasks to performance metrics that demonstrate growth through managed, automated distribution.
