“Basically, content marketing is the art of communicating with your customers and prospects without selling…. you are delivering information that makes your buyer more intelligent. The essence of this content strategy is the belief that if we, as businesses, deliver consistent, ongoing valuable information to buyers, they ultimately reward us with their business and loyalty.”
-- Joe Pulizzi, Junta42
