An Introduction to Content Marketing

An Introduction to Content Marketing
For Marketing, Media and Communications Professionals

With all the recent talk about content marketing I thought I’d write a free report on my experience producing content as a journalist, marketing editor and market analyst. Content marketing has a definite buzz about it right now, but in my experience it is something that has been around for quite some time, but not known specifically as “content marketing”.

I have written an introductory report on the topic and am making it available for free download and use (see licence terms below).
