Content Marketing
Publishing material that attracts and informs a defined audience, building durable demand rather than renting attention.
It compounds, which is also its weakness
Published material accumulates: the cost per lead falls as the library grows and ranks. The weakness is the lag — the investment precedes the return by long enough that the programme is frequently cancelled just before it works.
Depth beats volume
