This post is a guest post from Jake Jorgovan, founder of Content Allies and author of The Consultant’s Path to Thought Leadership. “What’s the purpose of creating content?”. Depending on who you ask, you’ll get a variety of answers. Many would say content is all about increasing SEO and boosting your Google rankings.

The Fearless Marketer
OCTOBER 14, 2019
The majority of clients who have come to me over the years want to know how to get more clients faster. And they’re often looking for a “silver bullet” that will draw new clients to them magically.

The last decade has not been kind to “gatekeeper” organisations. In almost every facet of our lives, we seem to have decided that we simply don’t have the need for them that we once did. We don’t need a taxi company to tell us who is and who isn’t qualified to drive us around; we’ll just have an app to do it. Once upon a time, aspiring TV producers had to go through an army of network executives before getting on our screens; now, anyone with a camera and a bedroom can reach millions of people o

You've got an impossible project. You have no flexibility. The project is a fixed-price, fixed-scope, fixed-date project. And, you have a specific team to do the work. (There are other impossible projects. Such as when you have a collection of people who multitask among several projects.). Can an agile approach save these projects? No. An agile approach might help you see what's happening.

Cryptocurrency has often been a divisive and controversial topic in the world of finance and economics. Some notable figures have written it off, claiming it to be nothing more than a complex Ponzi scheme , while others are insistent that cryptocurrencies are the future of the monetary system. Regardless of which party is correct, the near trillion-dollar peak market cap and multi-billion-dollar daily trading volume of cryptocurrency makes it a growing topic of research for economists and financ

Once a strategic plan is created at the highest level of an organization, there is a great need to cascade the strategic plan throughout all areas of the business. With larger and mid-sized organizations, you have to work on bringing the plan down to the secondary, tertiary, and all other levels of the organization.

I recently read Dave Barry’s latest book, Lessons From Lucy; The Simple Joys of an Old, Happy Dog. It’s funny, as one would expect from Dave Barry, insightful, poignant, and not exactly what I expected from him. I’m not going to “steal his thunder” and give away all his lessons. Read the book (it’s a fast read and extremely entertaining). I will share one lesson, because it’s one of the few mantras I have in my business.

If I were to ask chief marketing officers (CMO) at professional services firms around the world to measure their teams’ current marketing effectiveness on a scale of 1-5, I suspect that I might get a lot of 4s. Humility would keep many from saying 5 and ego would keep scores from falling to an average of 3 (Just like the children of Lake Wobegon).
