Creating great content is just the beginning of this system. It’s easy enough to create content once you have a plan but how is anyone going to know how to find it?!
By using online tools like Social Networks and Email marketing, you create awareness, repeat visibility and engagement. Letting your existing audience know when you’ve added something new drives traffic to your site and, if you’re using what you learned in The Content Pilot to create stellar content, they will be sharing and forwarding what you send them which will bring in new people to your list.

Content is often a scary word that entrepreneurs and business owners avoid at all costs. You don’t like doing it because you don’t know what to say or how to start. It can be very overwhelming.

Premium Content
This is the type of content that you give away in exchange for an email address to help you build your list.
