Content curation: a burger with mold, elevator pitches and a lot of live streaming on 2020 trends

AP | Portugal Tech Language Solutions’ content curation not only aims to disseminate knowledge; by embracing this important role, we also take the selection of the best and most valid content in multiple areas very seriously.

First up,

this week, Burger King, the multinational chain of hamburger fast food restaurants, was the protagonist of the ad that everyone has been talking about. The ad shows a burger with mold. That's right, a mouldy burger. Don't miss this video:

 

 

Even in a fast-moving world, there are some things that never change. One of them is the conviction that localizing content is not just advisable, it's an obligation. A procedure that also applies in the B2B universe. "If you thought that going global with your B2B products or services may not be as localization-intensive as what a B2C business is, it's time to think again," says Wordbee in a blog post, emphasizing that it's time to admit that only translating your content into English is not enough.

 

 

Have you ever heard of a "sales pitch"? Does the concept sound strange to you? Some people also call it an "elevator pitch", and the concept is very simple: you should be able to tell the story to a prospective customer within the time span of an elevator ride -- approximately thirty seconds to two minutes. The concept is explained in this post written by Gabe Larsen and published by HubSpot, digital marketing experts.

 

 

Video and 2020 are two big buzzwords that pop up in several articles that point towards a single idea: if content is king, video is the king of the content.

We totally agree, and we add another important element: live streaming. For this, we recommend this post on Thinkific’s blog.

Last but not the least, a post recommended by Mário Júnior,  CEO of AP | Portugal Tech Language Solutions: "Buyers have changed, too. Ten years ago, businesses won because they sold a product 10 times better than the competition. Today, businesses win and lose because of their customer experience".
