This episode is part of The Art of Content series hosted by Rachel Bicha. In this series, Rachel brings on guests to chat about big picture content marketing theory. Each conversation is centered on a recent that person wrote for The Art of Content blog.

Today’s guest is Deedi Brown talking about her recent post, Your Social Media Person Belongs on the Content Team.

Deedi Brown, Head of Content at Bubble, runs a team that includes social media, video, editorial, and product enablement. She also hasn't checked her blog traffic in months. Her argument is simple: social media is a content channel now, not a distribution one. Platforms punish outbound links, audiences don't want to leave, and the old model of chopping a blog post into social captions stopped working a while ago. This conversation gets into what it looks like to actually restructure around that, how to measure when you're not driving everything back to a blog, and why chasing impressions and engagements separately creates perverse incentives for both.
