TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

  • [00:27] Today’s Topic: The Craziest Content Marketing Tactic EVER
  • [00:37] Neil’s craziest tactic was when he stopped doing content marketing as often and started creating and giving away free software instead.
  • [00:52] Product-led growth has served him well.
  • [01:25] Not many people know how to build products, so take advantage of that marketing tactic.
  • [01:50] A crazy tactic is to use the marketing channel or method that isn’t popular yet.
  • [02:38] Another crazy tactic is the content sprouting approach (more or less omni-channel marketing).
  • [03:30] Figure out what’s right for your business.
  • [03:43] UberSuggest is still growing month-over-month.
  • [03:48] That’s it for today!
  • [03:52] We hit our goal of 1 Million downloads! So, we will be throwing a free event in Los Angeles this June. Check out this website if you would like to attend. Remember: we are capping the event at 500 people, so sign up now, if you’re interested!
