Content Marketers, It’s Time to Take the Power Back with a Headless CMS (Infographic)

Okay, I’m dating myself, here. In 1991, Rage Against the Machine released their self-titled debut album. It was (and still is) incendiary.

I was reminded of that album during my recent webinar – Agility CMS 101: Content Editing and Strategy Tips - with Agility CMS Director of Customer Experience Brendan Cooney. There’s a song on the album called Take the Power Back and I’m fairly certain I used the same phrase to describe Agility’s headless CMS and its ease of use for content marketers.

Did I actually say it? Find out in the full webinar replay below.

Not a video watcher? No worries. Instead, check out this stats-driven infographic on how marketers can take the power back with a headless CMS.

Don’t Be Powerless Over Your Content. Be Headless

As a marketer, you only want to create and publish amazing content. But you’re bottlenecked by technical dependencies, sprint schedules, and busy developers.

Produce More Content with Less Reliance on IT

Need a developer to fix an Oxford comma?

With a headless CMS, you don’t. You can:

  • Change an image? ✅
  • Rewrite a headline? ✅
  • Update a button colour to match your brand? ✅

A headless CMS liberates content marketers to work on, well, content. It also liberates developers from having to accommodate numerous content requests.

The proof is in the numbers as 43% of marketers rely less on IT after switching to headless. And an impressive 50% say they can increase the speed at which they publish content with a headless CMS.

Headless CMS is the One Solution for All Your Channels

Delivering omnichannel content is critical for business success. That means today’s marketers need to deliver content across:

  • Websites.
  • Mobile apps.
  • IoT devices.
  • Social media.

Using different platforms for each channel is chaotic. In fact, 47% of businesses use 2 or 3 platforms for omnichannel delivery. It’s exhausting and ineffective.

With a headless CMS, you create once and publish everywhere. That’s why 57% of users say headless improves omnichannel and multisite deployments efficiently.

Speed Wins. Period

The faster you can get your content to market, the better. That’s why 68% of organizations have lowered publishing times after switching to a headless CMS.

For eCommerce companies, the impact is even more dramatic, with 80% reporting improved content delivery speed.

Tell stories, launch products, and publish campaigns – all at lightning speed – with a headless CMS.

Content Creation Should Be Happy

Old CMS platforms can frustrate and exhaust content teams.

Headless CMS changes that, as evidenced by the following statistics:

  • 88% of content professionals are satisfied with a headless CMS.
  • 40% appreciate the ability to deliver content to any channel or device.

In any business in any industry, when you have the tools to do your job effectively and efficiently, job satisfaction naturally follows.

Even Devs Think Headless CMS is Great for Content

It’s not just marketers who love headless. Developers recognize its benefits, too.

That’s why 55% of developers say headless improved content organization and management. And a staggering 99% of companies report better content management with headless.

For developers, headless means cleaner architecture, fewer bottlenecks, and more flexibility in how content is delivered.

With headless, everyone—from engineers to editors—can work more efficiently.
