Mastering microcontent: Omnichannel requires content optimised for user intent

OmnichannelX Conference, Amsterdam – January 31, 2019
It isn’t enough to deliver the right content to the right people at the right time. Your customers don’t just need pages anymore, they need answers. The move to chatbots and voice user-interfaces will change how we deliver content that allows users to seamlessly shift modalities between seeking answers and exploring content. You still have to maintain traditional publishing channels while serving the needs of emerging channels. It only makes sense to do it from the same source of content.

Learn more about how you can transform your content using microcontent to not only enable emerging technologies but also make your traditional channels richer and far easier to use.

Making content easier to use for machines will vastly improve the accessibility of your content for human consumers in every way.
