Editor's Notes
- Schaefer says “great content will always rise to the top” is a myth. I disagree. Mediocre content absolutely will not. Great content may be “the price of admission,” but I’ve never seen “blah” be #1.
- I found this on a real blog post the night before I gave this talk.
- You have 300 – 400 words to make your point. Don’t waste them on adjectives, adverbs, and stupid shit.

- Partner with allies, cross-post content, share audiences.
- You’re only adding to the pile
- If you have to choose between curation and creation, choose creation.
- It can be PART of your content marketing, but if that’s all you do, you’re only adding to the pile.
- If everyone is blogging, do a podcast. If everyone is podcasting, do a video. (Mark Schaefer tip.)
- White papers, e-books, special reports, email newsletters.
- Of course, you have to feed the beast. The temptation is to just do what’s easiest, which adds to the problem.
