One of the best way to show a business the importance of content marketing is to show them all the great examples of companies who are already doing it right. I like to lead my own content marketing proposals with a few statements. Like these: Imagine you own the website for the generic category searches […].

Author: Raymond Coppinger Did you catch the video about the crazy guys snowboarding through New York that went viral just hours after it was posted on YouTube? New York filmmaker Casey Neistat created it with his friends, and its 2 minutes and 41 seconds are pure perfection. The video marries the simple story of friends having fun in the snow, with an underlying theme of it being a love letter to New York, where anything is possible (including skiing down Broadway)!

Is Remarketing the New Free? written by John Jantsch read more at Duct Tape Marketing. Let’s face it, we’ve become increasingly numb to the lead capture bait for email address exchange. In fact, I think it’s become so bad that while people still sign up for the free thing, they often don’t even bother to download, rarely if ever actually read it or watch it, and unfortunately, don’t represent the opportunity for marketers that they once did.

Author: Ellen Gomes It’s a new year, which means it’s time to get started on making your resolutions a reality (both personally and professionally). If you’ve set personal goals already (like seeing the inside of 24 Hour Fitness more than once a week), but you’re looking for a professional goal that will make a tangible impact on your brand and organization, you’ve come to the right place.
Author: Chris Gillespie And how does that make you feel?… This ain’t your grandmother’s psychotherapy. Despite all of his cultural preeminence, psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud is now completely outdated and out of favor. Our favorite father of modern psychology has been sidelined, with almost all of his theories disproven by science. So what’s the appeal of Freud and why do we still think of him when it comes to psychology?
Author: Elaine Ip Last week, a little bird told us that Twitter is considering increasing their 140 character limit count to 10,000 characters, and then the news spread like wildfire across (you guessed it) social media. Twitter’s CEO Jack Dorsey acknowledged these rumors with a long tweet of his own, about how people have already been getting around the character limit by screenshotting text (which he duly demonstrated).
Author: Mike Madden Let’s get one thing straight: deliverability is sexy. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. It’s the only way your emails get seen, opened, and clicked on. And if you can increase your deliverability by even just 1%, it can have a significant impact on your ROI. But achieving high deliverability rates that could make even a mailman jealous doesn’t come easy.
The rapid rise of AI-powered displays, touchless technology, and sensory marketing is reshaping the future of in-store engagement. Yet for many retail executives, the real challenge is not identifying new tools - it is knowing which signals to trust, which inputs to prioritize, and how to architect decisions that elevate in-store leadership rather than dilute it.
Author: Marissa Lyman I have a confession. Up until a few months ago, I didn’t realize I was a millennial. I know. That seems horrifically unaware. It’s just that millennials get a bad rap, and my parents instilled so much self-worth in me that I thought the negative millennial descriptors couldn’t possibly apply, right? Oh, my parents building me up to think I’m great is a tell-tale millennial attribute?
Author: Chris Gillespie Have you ever photocopied a piece of paper so many times that the copies faded and became hard to read? This is called a transcription error, and it happens when little mistakes add up over time to make a big difference. This also happens in sales when you repeat your pitch over and over again until small details get lost, the delivery gets muddied, and your pitch loses its edge and effectiveness.
Author: Amber Tiffany The most personal conversations happen offline. While a personalized digital experience is certainly enticing and powerful, to really get to know a prospect—their interests, burning questions, and biggest challenges—you talk to them. And what better way to talk to someone than over the phone, where chances for misinterpretation are greatly reduced.
Author: Lizzy Funk No matter how deeply you gaze into the crystal ball pondering what next year has in store for you, the only thing you’ll know for sure is that despite your careful planning, some things will change. But what if you could have a better idea of the changes 2016 has in store for marketers? We were curious so we asked Marketo employees to take a moment to look forward and share their marketing predictions.

Author: Mike Stocker Digital marketing has undergone significant changes over the past two decades, and I have been lucky enough to have a front row seat. I was able to work with some of the first ad servers and at one of the earliest programmatic paid media companies, Right Media, spending several million dollars per month acquiring paid media. It’s been really exciting to see the vast growth and development in technology supporting paid media acquisition.
Author: Chris Gillespie They say that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. How many wheels can your team afford to reinvent? As a student of history, I see the present as just another iteration in the core human struggle to make things better. Whether it’s with a spear-thrower or an iPhone, we’ve been working on improving things for a very long time.
Author: Ellen Gomes Words have an enormous impact on how we communicate with each other. Words communicate more than their textbook definition, they communicate subtleties and connotations that help you (as the reader) understand context—emotion, time and place. For marketers, words are our most powerful tool (followed closely by visuals). There are terms that stick around, whether they offer real value to a sentence (or to the reader) or not.
Author: Cori Pearce Let’s take it back to the old school–elementary school. Demand generation marketers spend their careers building out complex lead acquisition and engagement engines, but sometimes it’s good to take it back to the basics—way back–as in, back to the things we learned in kindergarten that still hold true in today’s marketing landscape.

Author: Andrea Lehr Ads are everywhere, and this can feel especially true when you’re trying to avoid them. And believe me, people try their hardest to do just that: Nearly 200 million people worldwide admit to employing some sort of ad blocking software, according to the 2015 PageFair Ad Blocking Report. Consumers don’t want interruptions, and the ability to block ads has fundamentally changed the consumer/brand relationship.
Author: Katie Pope There’s really nothing like the smell of the ocean breeze—except maybe the ocean breeze and the perfect meal. Recently, on a trip to Monterey, CA, I started craving some fresh seafood. Naturally, I opened up my Yelp! app and searched for “seafood” near Monterey within the “$$” range. Why? First, I wanted to discover restaurants in the area.

Author: Sean Zinsmeister It used to be that prospect management meant dolling out “ Glengarry Leads ” to add to your Rolodex, keeping a spreadsheet of top prospects, or most recently populating an empty CRM database with leads that seem to “look good.” But as the predictive sales and marketing landscape has flourished (with new vendors emerging and $242 million in venture capital funding last year alone), old school definitions of prospect management are quickly losing their relevancy.

Each poses its own opportunities and challenges, but this four-part series of infographics is designed to create a point of entry to understand a little more about Millennials , Gen X, Baby Boomers, and Traditionalists.
