SupportNinja, a customer experience outsourcing partner, had no shortage of in‑depth content, but their efforts weren’t translating into the right kind of visibility or pipeline.
Their blog content leaned heavily on top-of-funnel topics and lacked a cohesive strategy, making it challenging to connect with C-level executives and senior directors — the key decision-makers in their target audience.
We helped SupportNinja build a scalable, pillar-based content system that powers consistent, SEO-optimized publishing and more effectively guides their audience toward conversion.
The challenge
SupportNinja’s content program was producing long-form pieces, but they weren’t anchored to an overarching strategy or specific audience segments. Topics were largely ad hoc, which meant the content library looked busy on the surface but failed to systematically support the buyer’s journey from first touch through to purchase decisions.
Additionally, many content pieces were long and scattered in their ideas, creating a disconnect between what users clicked on in search results and the actual content they encountered. This damaged their brand image and perceived expertise.
Without a clear plan tying topics to audience needs and funnel stages, content performance lagged, and valuable consideration- and decision-stage buyers weren’t getting the resources they needed to move through the funnel.
Because most assets focused on top-of-funnel education, mid- and bottom-of-funnel prospects were left to bridge the gap themselves, often without any tailored guidance that spoke to their priorities, objections, or KPIs.
The solution
To resolve these challenges, we introduced a hub-and-spoke content strategy built around clearly defined pillars that aligned with SupportNinja’s core offerings and spoke to their CX leadership audience.
Each pillar served as a central hub, with supporting pieces designed to answer specific questions, address objections, and speak to different stages of the buyer’s journey. This structure provided a repeatable framework for planning topics, prioritizing briefs, and ensuring every new asset had a clear role in the broader strategy.
Since mid‑2023, we have used this framework to build a consistent publishing engine that enables SupportNinja to ship a new blog post every week. A queue of approved topics and drafts gives their team confidence that they can maintain momentum without scrambling for ideas at the last minute. Meanwhile, regular content strategy workshops and interviews with internal subject matter experts keep the calendar closely aligned to real customer conversations and emerging priorities.
We also support on‑page optimization and ongoing internal linking, including updates to older content so it stays relevant and better supports the new pillar structure. This helps distribute authority across the site, connect related topics, and guide readers toward deeper, more conversion‑focused content as they progress through the buyer’s journey.
