How it all started
Created form a consulting business, based on a big project with “Deutsche Bahn” in 2013
Triggered by the finding that Excel “can’t do that”, and other software isn’t good enough
Driven by the will to help companies creating better content instead of just more
Committed enabling companies to not only develop effective strategies but also to operationalize them in their daily work!

1. ContentStrategy
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 21
In Scompler, you can model each one of your personas
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 22
This includes several attributes which you can apply to your persona
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 23
You can also select a wide range of attributes for content marketing
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 24
You can add all your attributes individually…
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten)25
You can also add descriptions and assign each attribute to one or more personas
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 26
The content strategy is available to view as a whole document for everybody
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 27
And for security reasons, users, teams and roles can be defined easily
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 28
And we can define different rights for the users (strategy for admins only)
Step 2: How do we create our topic plan

1. ContentStrategy
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 30
First we create a mission and categories…
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 31
Then we can create topics in each category
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 32
And in every topic we can create „stories“: How does the topic affect our personas?
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 33
You will get further information on „roll-over“
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 34
As well as further information about the persona
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 35
On click you can edit all the details of the story
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 36
And you will see all the stories in your yearly calendar…
Step 3: How do we create the storyboards?

(incl. Personas, Customer Journey and „Core Story“)

In each story, we can see the parameters we created for the strategy…
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 39
And we can define which of the global options suit to the story
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 40
Now you can create different types of content for the story
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 41
The content types are freely definable in your strategy section
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 42
And finally we have created several content pieces for several personas
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 43
You have a perfect overview of all the key information (columns customizable)
copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 44
You will always see further information on roll-over
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 45
You can also add tasks directly to our story (which can be considered as a campaign)
Copyright Scompler GmbH (all rights reserved) 46
Again, you can see the whole story incl. content and tasks in the calendar, too.

copyright Scompler GmbH (alle Rechte vorbehalten) 66
