Your brand is a publisher now. That's a frightening notion, perhaps, but it's also a tremendous opportunity.

It's not just an option to create awesome online content—it's imperative for your business to thrive. Produce great stuff, and your customers will come to you. Produce great stuff, and your customers will share your story for you. Results: you'll see them reflected in your bottom line.

Find out why content matters and why it's right for your company. Get started with this special, FREE seminar featuring our very own Ann Handley and Digital Dads' C.C. Chapman, co-authors of the brand-new book Content Rules. Ann and C.C. will break down: What does it mean to create content that's "compelling"? And how can you do it consistently? How can you be heard above the noise? It's hard work, right?

Plus, this session kicks off the new MarketingProfs University Content Marketing Crash Course—an in-depth training program featuring close to a dozen hours of instruction across 17 on-demand classes taught by an impressive array of content marketing experts. You'll get a grand welcome to what this whole content marketing business is all about.
