“It's tipping because it works. Content is the engine of search, social, outbound and web marketing. It's also the fuel for lead nurturing. It took a while for people to see how and why content is so powerful but it's on every marketer's radar now.”!
Doug Kessler, Creative Director and Co-Founder, Velocity Partners

plan? - Why will people want to view or engage with it?
Don't over think it

Part 3!Using digital content to achieve audience goals.!
Vicki Allpress Hill 2013
Case Study 1: Chamber Music New Zealand
Vicki Allpress Hill 2013
Chamber Music New Zealand (CMNZ) The largest presenter of top quality chamber music concerts throughout New Zealand.
Vicki Allpress Hill 2013
An ongoing challenge…!
¤ 57% New Zealanders have no idea who "we are and what we do*.
¤ We need to: ¤ raise awareness and understanding ¤ break down barriers of assumed ‘formality’ and ‘stuffiness’
¤ Rising to the challenge is about more than just what CMNZ presents – it's about fostering development of the chamber music sector as a whole.
Candice de Villiers 2013
*2011 Creative New Zealand – Audience Atlas Dashboard
“What is "chamber music?”
The opportunity…!The Adam Chamber Music Festival
¤ Only happens once every 2 years.
¤ International and local musicians
¤ Finite period (10 days)
¤ Focused and specific – an entire festival of only chamber music (in all its various forms)
¤ Lots of activity going on (28+ chamber music events!)
¤ Not presented by CMNZ – opening up our scope, being supportive of the sector.
Candice de Villiers 2013
To raise awareness & support the sector
The digital tool/ channel!
¤ For this project, we decided to create… a blog. The reasons? ¤ CMNZ was yet to dive into this area. ¤ More 'chatty' and 'informal' than website (breaking down that
barrier!) ¤ A 'step removed' from our activites / organisation directly ¤ Quick – easy – cheap to set up! Design wasn't nearly as
important as content. ¤ Opportunity to share a variety of content (flexible)
The festival gave us a clear, finite purpose for a blog – and a way to 'trial' blogging in a managable way!
Candice de Villiers 2013
And so we created "the 10 DAYS OF CHAMBER MUSIC blog"(www.chambermusicnz.wordpress.co.nz)
Candice de Villiers, 2013
The process!
1. Began discussing the idea in Nov. 2012
2. Planned to send Artistic Development Manager but cost, resource and timing didn’t allow....
3. So the shoestring blog project got even shoestringier and
4. Collaboration became key! ¤ ensured festival organisers were on board ¤ organised the contributors (concert managers' connections,
performing artists, locals)…
Candice de Villiers 2013
The process!
4. Created ‘loose’ timetable – ¤ who would contribute ¤ about what ¤ basic instructions about tone and content (not too
restrictive!)
5. Used FREE blogging platform Wordpress to set up blog in 1 afternoon (KISS)
6. Every morning content emailed through and uploaded "(maintain overall tone, layout)
Candice de Villiers 2013
CONTENT... Our 2 cents...
Candice de Villiers, 2013
CONTENT... More than just the music! Behind the scenes drama and delight...
Multiple perspectives on the same event – from 'real and relatable' people...
Direct and candid posts from the musicians themselves...
Candice de Villiers, 2013
Outcomes!
¤ Collaboration within the sector – an invaluable foundation
¤ Almost 3,000 views, over 30 shares and likes on Facebook
¤ Staff/team buy-in for the next blog project (to be hosted on same platform)
¤ Only $21 spent (Facebook post promoting)
¤ Increased # of links and traffic to our site
