How to Build a Content Strategy from Scratch (3 Steps)

Download MP3
I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).

I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.



Bad news: The content marketing landscape is filled with low-quality content to game Google, without any effort to delivering value to customers.

The good news is, not all hope is lost.

My guest today is Len Markidan, the CMO of Podia. In this episode, we discuss why content marketing is here to stay, how to build a customer-driven content marketing strategy, and the most significant content promotion mistake you can make.
