Practical Content Strategy & Marketing Julia McCoy

Finally: a real-life, practical industry guide on content strategy and marketing. For the first time in the industry, Practical Content Strategy & Marketing lays out the "hows" of content marketing and strategy, step-by-step. Each section has written exercises built to solidify what you're reading and learning-you'll be able to fill these out with a pen. Don't be afraid to mark up this book! Why is this book different? You're not going to find corporate, birds-eye, mumbo-jumbo fluff in this content marketing guide. Quite the opposite. The author, Julia McCoy, won her way to the top (awarded as the top 33rd content marketer in 2016) the hard-knocks way. She dropped out of college and built a content agency, Express Writers, on nothing but $75 and the tenacity to go and follow her dream and see it through. Five years later, Julia's business has served over 5,000 clients and employs over 40 team members, and her content consistently ranks at the top of Google and among the highest-shared for guest publications. Julia has fully relied on her practical, hands-on content marketing approach that has ended up bringing her 99% of the clients her agency currently works with.
