Content Marketing
The stuff any keeping-with-the-times marketer’s dreams are made of. The stuff any business’ marketing budget should be full of. The stuff the internet (i.e. the people you want buying from you) is simply, totally, absolutely in love with.Have you looked at Big Business and wondered how the heck they do it, anyway? (And did you notice, while you were at it, that it’s far from just Big Business doing it these days?).
Every piece of content you create goes through a miraculous little process of getting life breathed into it. Whether your content marketing is in-house or outsourced (here’s why outsourcing digital marketing is awesome), the content creator(s) sits hunched over the data, engrossed in bringing your company’s message to the fore and make it rock. Hours pass by, in which life slows down to a flicker of a heartbeat. And then, finally!, ‘Save’ is pressed for the last time, ‘Export’ and ‘Email’ is gleefully finger-jumped on, and voila! another content marketing masterpiece is born.

Brand Management
If you’ve been in business for a number or years, you’ve probably seen a lot of trends come and go. Some of them, like typewriters, had their quiet burials. Others, like the office robots we all wish we had, which would do everything from unlocking the front door to auditing the yearly financial statements, all for a quick daily battery boost, don’t (yet) exist.The thread that holds it all together, nowadays, is technology. From personal productivity to office automation, most of us are quick to jump on the bandwagon whenever the latest and greatest new tech development is unrolled to our nearest corner store.
