We've explored how email marketing delivers messages directly to inboxes. This time, let's discover what fills those messages with real value: content marketing.
Content marketing is about creating genuinely helpful information that attracts and engages your ideal customers naturally.

What's one piece of helpful content you've encountered online that made you trust a business more?
Here's what makes content marketing different from traditional advertising: instead of interrupting people with sales messages, you create content they actually want to consume.
Think helpful blog posts, instructional videos, or useful guides rather than "Buy now!" advertisements.

How does this approach change the relationship between business and customer?
Content marketing operates on a simple principle: provide value first, and customers will naturally become interested in your business over time.
When someone learns something valuable from your content, they start seeing you as a helpful expert rather than just another vendor.

Name an expert whose free content taught you something valuable—and how that influenced your trust in them.
Different content formats serve different purposes and preferences. Blog articles explain complex topics, videos demonstrate processes, infographics simplify data, and podcasts enable multitasking consumption.
The key is matching format to both your message and your audience's preferred consumption style.

What content format do you prefer when learning something new?
Content marketing supports every stage of the customer journey. Early-stage content builds awareness and educates prospects. Mid-stage content addresses specific problems and showcases solutions.
Late-stage content provides detailed product information and social proof to support purchase decisions.
