After having published several eBooks, designed multiple infographics and sent out numerous press releases, you might consider yourself to be a content marketing expert. However, your prospects and clients might be looking for additional resources that you might not have covered in your previous offering. You have a blog that is a must in your industry,   so what else can you do?

To help you achieve a new level of success, consider adding the following content marketing products to fuel your offering.

1. Kits

If you have already created several white papers, slideshows, webinars and eBooks on a given subject, why not combining them into a stand-alone kit. Together they turn into a high-value content entity that will generate more leads for your company.

2. Excel Templates

Regardless of your industry, you have probably created amazing resources with Excel. Consider sharing your templates such as your editorial calendar, your sales calculator or your project management tools with your audience. These can instantly be converted into content offers to generate interesting leads.

3. FAQ Lists

Industry specific FAQ questions can easily be turned into content pieces such as an eBook, Slideshare, white paper or even an infographic. But amongst all, the questions should be found answered within your industry blog.

4. Re-Target Existing eBooks

If you have created content offers that are general in topic, why not re-target them to reach a specific segment of your audience. Vice versa, if you have specific subject eBooks, re-target them to reach the industry as a whole. Another idea is to re-target a piece of content to reach an audience that is influenced by a specific holiday or season such as Christmas, Valentine Day or Back-to-School.

5. Blog Bundles

Sometimes addressing the negative way of doing something can actually create a positive piece of content offering. A Hoe-Not-To-List can help you reach your prospects who are simply trying to understand what not to do.
