Some will say that March is one of the greatest months of the year. They will attribute that fact to the phenomenon known as March Madness or in laymen’s terms, the NCAA Basketball Tournament. We all love the brackets and filling them out only to see that one person who never watches basketball win the office pool.
For most of us, we’re in the business of driving sales, generating revenue and attracting customers, but in today’s digital age it has become increasingly harder than ever to do that. That’s where many believe “Content Marketing” can help.
“Content Marketing” has been a huge buzzword around many industries. Some love it, some hate it, but we can’t deny the facts. According to Social Media B2B, B2B companies who blog generate 67% more leads than those who don’t. And, 61% of consumers feel better about buying from a company who produces their own custom content.
We all know the old 80/20 rule: 80% of revenues come from 20% of customers. But, recent studies have shown that the paradigm is now shifting to a 50/20 split (50% of revenues coming from 20% of customers).

And from a few minutes in, it was clear that this year’s Super Bowl sponsors were having the same luck as Peyton Manning. Nevertheless, there were some bright spots in an otherwise disappointing night of Super Bowl commercials.
It’s an action classic. Anti-air shells explode all around them as a mismatched group of Army Rangers free fall to the ground in a multi-ton tank! A strangely blond version of Liam Neeson orders a cowboy version of Bradley Cooper to fire on the ground in order to steer the vessel and slow their fall. With the help of a few parachutes, the tank crash-lands safely in a conveniently placed lake, startling the cliché fishing boat.
“I love it when a plan comes together,” says Neeson’s infamous Colonel Hannibal Smith.

As a child, I always remember waking up extra early on Christmas morning, jumping up and down on my parents bed and making them wake up to take me downstairs to open presents from Santa.
