Product Description
We are in the middle of a content revolution, a revolution like none we've ever seen before. It is simply the greatest opportunity businesses have ever had to communicate directly with their customers. The barriers, that for years have separated businesses from talking one-on-one with their customers, have fallen. No longer is it necessary to buy ads to get your message out. Today, marketers can be the media. Businesses, both large and small, have the opportunity to create their own valuable, relevant and compelling content that turns prospects into buyers of your products and services. This strategy, called content marketing, creates marketing messages that your customers request, instead of interruptive messages they ignore. Get Content. Get Customers. shows you step-by-step how to create and execute a content marketing strategy that works regardless of the size of your company or the type of business you are in. This book provides dozens of examples of how large and small companies, associations, entrepreneurs, and international organizations are leveraging the power of content to drive their businesses. All the rules have changed. You need to relearn the marketing game with a brand new marketing mindset. Those who can adapt will flourish. This book offers a practical guide that you can implement now to drive your business for the future.

'Get Content. Get Customers.' is a business book page-turner, which, in and of itself is a rarity these days. An easy to follow guide to content marketing that is invaluable for both the content marketing novice and expert alike.
'Get Content. Get Customers' is a must-read for custom content agencies and consumer marketers who already employ a content strategy - and those that aspire to do so. Any marketer today will gain terrific insight about the current, seismic shift in how media and content is created, delivered and absorbed in the early 21st century by reading this book.
Timely information throughout, well organized and very efficiently done.
Kudos to Pulizzi and Barrett.
A "Must-Have" for smart marketers! August 14, 2008

This book is a must-have for traditional marketers looking to get more value from their marketing efforts, contemporary marketers in pursuit of successful execution of new mktg applications like Social Media Marketing, and the SMART marketers who are integrating both for their own organizations and/or clients. The concept is highly relevant, presented well and uses great case studies. I have yet to put my copy down.

Anyone who wants to take their company to the next level by gaining hightened exposure to their target market, Get Content.Get Marketing. is their newest, simplest tool! Bravo to Mr. Barrett and Mr. Pulizzi for tying opportunities together on the ever changing electronic highway. This book is fun, easy to read, easy to digest and best of all, easy to implement.
The way we reach our customers is evolving daily and whether you own a small business or a large corporation, there's no longer a reason to say, "I have a great product or service, but how do I let people know about it?" Read the book!
Best Business Book For Small Business July 3, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Most contemporary business books should be in the humor genre as far as small business owners are concerned. Not Get Content Get Customers, this slim book deserves your roughest treatment. Mark it up, dog ear it, spill coffee on it, and tear through it. If there was one book you could keep out of your competitors' hands, this would be the one.
With traditional media becoming less effective, and almost all our new clients telling us they looked at our Website (HopeHealth.com) before calling us -- it was time to re-think our marketing from top to bottom. Get Content Get Customers is a step-by-step "get er done" guide to making your business visible to anyone who may be interested enough to search for your ilk.
Once the rules of the road are established, the case studies are invaluable. No theories here. It's all real world, tested advice. It's clear Pulizzi and Barrett, the authors, believe in Content Marketing because the subject matter is delivered with passion, and makes for an interesting and "relevant" read.
This advice is easy-to-follow, and easy to implement. Garden variety websites, enhanced with free downloadable software are all you need. Then only your creativity is the limit to how effective your content marketing will be. Highly recommended!
A timely how too that should be standard reading for most marketers July 2, 2008

"Get Content. Get Customers." is well thought out, easy to read and highly relevant. While the title might lead one to believe that it's all about the web, the book effectively ties together all elements of modern-day marketing and links them to the spinal column of the internet.
I am amazed that in a field changing as quickly as modern marketing that the authors have been able to get much information into the book that is this timely. I found easy to follow-constructs, timely examples and dozens of items which will lead me to do additional research and continue learning.
