We have worked with Beyond Bank to identify three key goals, and provide a service closely tied to achieving them. It was
important to set these so all teams involved could have focused strategies.

At Castleford, we deliver a broad range of content marketing products using our specialist, in-house teams. Achieving the
goals set out for Beyond Bank involved our editorial team creating and mapping out blog content as well as downloadable
content, and our graphics team creating engaging CTAs.
Our unique Unit pricing structure allows us to remain flexible, adjusting the strategy as required.

Multiple Editorial Features were written per month to drive organic traffic to the site. Content Mapping
was applied to these articles which identified tactics like higher word counts (600+) to combat
competitive financial keyword rankings.
Content Calendars were created to map out the blog content in advance. This was important given the
competitive nature of the topic areas. It allowed us to plan and align content with the rest of the
strategy.

CUSTOM GRAPHICS - CTAs
Castleford created two Ebooks on refinancing home loans and car insurance respectively. These Ebooks
were gated in order to capture leads which was one of the set goals. These leads were then added to
Beyond Bank’s sales cycle to convert into customers.
Our graphics team created multiple calls-to-action (CTAs) which appeared across the site. These CTAs
aimed to direct traffic to parts of the site where readers were encouraged to convert.
