HiveFire Launches LinkedIn(R) Group: Content Curators
Professional Forum for Content Curation Best Practices and Insights
(firmenpresse) - CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/20/11 -- ., the content marketing solution provider and maker of Curata today announced the official launch of its LinkedIn group, . Designed as a professional group for LinkedIn members who find, organize and share content to support their organization's objectives, Content Curators serves as a forum to discuss content curation best practices, helpful tips, industry solutions and overall insight into content curation and content marketing.
Social media has become a key element in the content marketing mix, particularly because it is instrumental in building and engaging communities online through real-time dialogue. And it is clear that marketers who have embraced content curation have creatively integrated social channels into their curation practices: according to HiveFire's February 2011 Curation Adoption Survey, 79 percent of content curators distribute content via social media channels -- Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, blogs and more. The LinkedIn Content Curators group is another opportunity for marketers to both share best practices and tap into new content through a social channel.
"Many marketers already see the value in finding, organizing and sharing content to boost web traffic, drive sales leads and posture their brand as a thought leader," said Richard Turcott, chief marketing officer for HiveFire. "Our hope is that Content Curators provides an educational outlet for marketers to engage in discussion and conversation around curation techniques, and answers their questions about curating original and third-party content."
Since its launch in the spring of 2011, Content Curators has grown to more than 60 members. By opening the group to the public and fostering engaging discussions between current members, HiveFire anticipates fast growth in membership and continued dialogue regarding trends, challenges and opportunities related to content curation.
"Recognizing a social media vacuum in discussions on content curation, we have created this LinkedIn group as a hub for marketers looking to access and build a community around content curation," added Pawan Deshpande, chief executive officer of HiveFire. "Social media has emerged as a key channel for the curation process, and we aim to use this group to generate tips, best practices and industry solutions for content marketing."
