The Fallacy Of The "King"

Posted November 9, 2011

For those of you who clicked on the link for today’s blog thinking it was some kind of “let’s equate sales to Elvis” thing . . . you’re going to be really disappointed!

This one is all about “Content Is King!”

I get really uptight when I hear that!

I think people get a little too caught up in that to the extent . . .

That they obsess over creating lots and lots and lots and lots of content

And they’re so busy spewing and broadcasting that they forget that . . .

Content might be King but its one half of the marriage.

ENGAGEMENT is Queen and TOGETHER they rule the kingdom!

In other words . . .

Don’t be so busy creating and or broadcasting content that you don’t stick around for the comments, the conversation and interaction that in my humble opinion . .

Is far more valuable than the original content.

Why?

Because it represents another “date” in the “courtship” with your audience.

Its also a symbolic “date” because in many cases it represents someone who has moved from anonymous bystander to a visible, active and engaged follower.

The King is dead . . . Long live King & Queen!

FYI I will be releasing “Paul Castain’s Social Networking Playbook” next week. Stay tuned for details!
