It doesn’t matter if it’s content marketing, an investment, or if you’re literally Jeff Bezos, everyone wants a better ROI (return on investment). At every instance, and especially during the current economic turmoil. The best way to maximize your content marketing ROI? By utilizing user-generated content.
User-generated content marketing can have a significant impact on your ROI and overall bottom line, given that 79% of people say it highly impacts their purchasing decisions. But how do you measure it? After all, you often won’t know your ROI until long after you’ve spent your initial investment.
