How Content Marketing Has Evolved

Thanks to Kara Gamber, a member of the Story Power VIP program, who passed alongĀ this article.

The big takeaway: Tools and tactics evolve. But century-old fundamentals remain the same. I recommend this article to reinforce those fundamentals. It contains great examples from decades past. Loads of lessons in this article.


What Do You Think?
Is Persuasion Legal?

Here’s a great post from Ted Prodromou that explores if/when it’s OK to use persuasion tactics in your marketing.

As Ted writes, “So is it ethical to intentionally influence or persuade someone?”

That’s an important question for marketers.

Last week, Ted and I launched the Mastermind Book Club. And the first book we’re reading is “Yes!: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive.”

By choosing that book, Ted and I acknowledge that persuasion is good — when practiced ethically. But with the great power of persuasion comes great responsibility.

Here’s a post that describes how the book club works:
