Elizabeth Schumacher-Berger: How Audience-First Content Wins Beyond Google Rankings
Business
Elizabeth Schumacher-Berger, Digital Content Manager at Momentum, joins E-Coffee with Experts to discuss how businesses can build content that stays useful as search, AI Overviews, and large language models keep changing.
Liz shares how her background in library science shaped her focus on accurate, well-organized information, and why she remains careful about using generative AI in content. The conversation covers audience-first content strategy, using sales calls and lead questions to find real topics, building original insights through subject-matter-expert interviews, and using case studies to show proof instead of simply claiming expertise.
You’ll also hear how to repurpose existing content across websites, social media, Google Business Profiles, and video; which engagement signals matter beyond rankings and traffic; why personality and a consistent brand voice can help businesses stand apart; and the first step to take when your marketing strategy feels unclear: audit the content you already have.
