Raising brand awareness, building trust, and establishing credibility, that’s what the top of the funnel is all about. It can be a content marketer’s Paradise City, but without focus, it can be overwhelming. Content is created to inspire, educate, and sometimes entertain; this is the place to experiment with a lot of trial and error. But once you find a formula that works, it’s time to scale. In this session, Jason Miller, LinkedIn’s Senior Manager, Content Marketing, will show you how to put together a world-class content strategy that will fuel the top of the funnel while establishing your company as a thought leader.
