What Works in Customer Success Stories: The Online Intro Page

Author: ; Published: Aug 10, 2009; Category: Organizing success stories online; Tags: , , , ; No Comments

Content marketing is about giving audiences access to the TYPE of content they want to consume. For customer success stories and case studies, increasingly that means multiple formats – written (summaries and longer versions), audio and video.

How do you organize your success story content on your site?

I came across some paper recycling case studies created by the Paper Industry Association Council. They effectively created a "home page" for each case study.

They introduce the organization on a single page with a short overview. Then they give you the option of viewing a testimonial video (less than one minute), reading the written case study and looking at additional resources.

In particular, I like the attractive graphics that tie into the story on this intro page. It’s all very inviting.
