There are more than 150 million blogs. Last year, over 100 trillion emails were sent out. The number of websites in the world is well over 250 million. 48 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute. In a world drowning in content, the secret to success is not more content marketing - it's better content marketing. That's what Wendy Clark, VP of Integrated Marketing and Communications at Coca-Cola, told a crowd of digital marketing enthusiasts at ad:tech 2011. "The...

Today's article comes from Brian Clark, the founder of highly read and respected Copyblogger and the CEO of Copyblogger Media. He invites you find him on Twitter. It’s always been about the writing. Watch an episode of Mad Men, and you’ll see that the people who make the magic are the unsung writers in the back. The account execs have the boozy lunches and the lecherous evening liaisons, but it’s the writers who deliver the words that sell. These days, the writers are leading...

Content marketing is the tendon that connects social media muscle to the lead generation bone. Without healthy diet of fresh content, a company’s entire marketing program will never perform at its best. Fortunately, three of the industry’s fittest content marketing experts – Joe Pulizzi, CC Chapman and Ann Handley – helped me cook up today’s Grande Guide to B2B Content Marketing, a resource we hope will be delicious and nutritious. Pulizzi, who founded The Content Marketing...

I sat in on a live session of #blogchat at the MarketingProfs B2B Forum not too long ago and a provocative question was asked of the group – “are you blogging to tell a story or are you blogging to sell a service?” Points and counter points emphasized either the story or the service. I listened closely and, having yet to find my full confidence as a marketer, held my tongue. As time for the session slipped away, I could no longer contain myself. I volunteered my point of view...

You know the saying: You go to college for an education, and then spend years trying to un-learn everything you were taught. It’s hard to name a field that has faced as much disruption and change as marketing. And for young marketers just entering the job market – or even those of us who have been here a long time – applying what you learned can be difficult when the day-to-day is topsy-turvy. That’s why we created the “Real World Marketing Syllabus,” a new hybrid of original...

“If your value proposition isn’t rolling off your lips, you already have a problem.” That’s how Dr. Flint McGlaughlin, Managing Director and CEO of MECLabs, kicked off the MarketingSherpa B2B Summit 2011 today – and appropriately so. B2B marketing lives or dies based on your value proposition. Nevertheless, it’s often neglected. Fortunately, Dr. McGlaughlin, in his fiery style, provided many value proposition examples as he outlined 6 steps to identifying your value...
