When it comes to mastering and
staying on top of today’s must-have
marketing tool: Content Marketing, I
hear the same frustrations again
and again from small businesses.
Without a doubt it nearly always
boils down to what they
don’t have:
1
NO TIME
For stepping out of the day-to-day tasks of running a business to focus on marketing
planning or execution.
2
NO IDEA WHAT TO CREATE
before social media you only had to write your web copy once and then set and
forget. Now I have to figure out what to write about and how and where to post it.
But I’m not a writer OR a social media guru!
3
NO CONSISTENCY
Because of having no time and no idea what to create,so many businesses complain
their marketing efforts are inconsistent at best; receiving focus only when a good
idea presents itself or when there is a spare minute.
4
NO IDEA HOW TO MEASURE ROI
Without effective tracking tools, content marketing can be difficult to measure, and
this baffles most small businesses.
5
NO CONFIDENCE
No control over the process leads to a lack of confidence, which leads to a general
lack of enthusiasm and negativity towards the whole process. This often turns
content marketing into a burden that gets put in the ‘too hard basket’.
If the above resonates with you, do not worry! The Rules of Social Engagement toolkit guides
you through an easy to follow step-by-step process for content success.

ABOUT PHILIPPA SPORK
Marketing
Strategist,
Media
Solutions
Specialist, Author and Facilitator Philippa
Spork is passionate about enabling
businesses to connect with their customers in
today’s social world. Philippa spent more than
two decades working with some of the globe’s
biggest brands to create innovative marketing
solutions that drive sales in an increasingly
complex marketing landscape. In 2012
Philippa embarked on a new journey, opening
her own boutique marketing-consultancy
called BlueSky Engagement. She soon
learned the value of her marketing expertise,
and worked tirelessly with a wide range of
businesses to effectively navigate and
implement the broad range of marketing
possibilities available to them.
Launching her own small business taught her
first hand how important marketing processes
are for a growth period for a business in any
industry. She also quickly realised that
exclusive consulting fees were out of reach for
many. She began to collate the concepts and
tools that she applied everyday in her work,
into an easy-to-manage process that small to
medium businesses could both afford,
understand and activate!
PLAY BY THE SOCIAL RULES
E- COURSE
A practical and interactive e-learning course
that equips you with the tools and knowledge
you need to make sure your business makes
money out of your content.
MENTOR PROGRAM
The Rules of Social Engagement support
program allows you to receive ongoing
mentoring and support throughout your
content marketing journey. Whether via Skype
or in person, it’s amazing what some
dedicated one-on-one time with an objective
expert can do to enhance your planning and
motivation.
Sometimes just work-shopping ideas with
someone who has been through the process
many times before, and coming away with a
practical checklist can assist you in reaching
your goals more effectively.

TESTIMONIALS
“
Philippa has worked with me for nearly twenty years in the media industry, and so I didn’t
hesitate to employ her on a Consulting basis when she started her own business in 2012. With
BlueSky I know that I will always receive focused attention, and that I will always feel prioritised.
Philippa is one of the most creative and efficient strategist I know, who is always results
focussed. One of her key strengths lies in developing effective business solutions tailored to suit
the task at hand.

“
Philippa is a consummate professional who gets the digital and social web. Working with her
is a joy. Her clients interests are always her priority and making sure they achieve their goals is
paramount.

“
Over the last 9 months, BlueSky Engagement has enhanced my business ten fold. After
meeting with Philippa and scoping a brief out to address raising my profile on the Social Media
platform, a strategy was developed and currently we are in implementation mode. The strategy
addressed the practical nature of social media however it was tailored to me and my style of
business. It has been responsive and developing over the last 9 months. Without Philippa’s
expert knowledge and quest to constantly evolve, we would not have achieved the results we
have today nor the breath of reach of our campaign. It is a pleasure to work with Philippa and the
BlueSky team. Responsiveness is the key to Philippa’s ability to deliver. I look forward to
continually evolving and growing in time.

Whilst approaching a period of rapid change for the automotive collision repair industry, Auto
Parts Group partnered with Bluesky Engagement to develop a public relations strategy to
position our business with the strength to face new challenges. Their experience, guidance and
clear communication has delivered positive outcomes in terms of both customer and media
engagement, giving us the confidence to broaden our online presence and develop deeper
connections with customer and stakeholders alike. We certainly feel that with the help of
BlueSky, we are on the right track moving towards a position of thought leadership in our
space.
