In the latest PR Newswire's Small Business PR Toolkit article, Marc Prosser, publisher at Fit Small Business, believes that small businesses can achieve greater brand awareness through their content by implementing the following:

• Focus on the value of your content. Move away from writing content around keywords and focus on creating content that educates, inspires, and provides value.
• Remember your audience. Don't isolate your readers by content topics that focus primarily on the first-time buyer. Existing customers may have further questions or needs that your content can deliver.
• Content churn and burn. Gone are the days of posting content just because. Research content topics that you believe will resonate well with your audience. Remember to focus on the quality of your posts and not just the quantity.
