Case study: Video production
17
Situation
Global CPG firm was spending over $8MM for an annual program where each
division needed to produce a rich media video.
Solution
We created a talent cloud of pre-vetted video production specialists from around
the globe with careful consideration to time to results, quality, and cost savings.
Results
Delivered equal or better quality on results.
Cost of $800k (10% of baseline cost)
Turnaround time decreased dramatically, many overnight iterations.
“It’s amazing, not only did we save money, but Upwork’s freelancers raised the bar on the
actual quality of the videos as well.”

7 Content Marketing Takeaways
1. Be unique before you are prolific.
2. Hire extroverts.
3. SEO content for SEO’s sake never works (for long).
4. A good illustrator can be worth her weight in gold.
5. Hiring an agency to do your link-building is doomed to fail.
6. Don’t measure your content team on conversion.
7. Every dime spent towards on-page optimization will pay back $1

  1. There was a great article in The New Yorker several years ago written by Malcolm Gladwell about the CEO of Tibco Software. -Coach of his daughter’s basketball team -Grew up with cricket and soccer -Couldn’t understand why we didn’t cover the entire court -Had his girls run an aggressive full court press, and his smaller, less talented team dominated

  3. Quality issue as a problem. The thinking would be that with all these channels, content marketers are left with a few options 1) cut and paste your content across multiple channels - there could be some funny examples here 2) Lower the quality bar and have some off-topic, poor quality posts here 3) Give your ATM card details to your ad agency so they can spend all your money 4) Hire an internal team via the traditional model (and still be unable to scale)

  5. Companies are only as good as their people. "We hire the best people regardless of where they live. Which means we can hire the best people. Companies that aren’t distributed can’t possibly say they hire the best people. It doesn’t work that way, the world is a big place."
