If your content isn’t getting traction—if you’re posting regularly but still feel invisible—this episode is for you.

Please Note: This opens with me showing an 8mm home movie clip sharing a childhood hockey story that perfectly captures the chaos of today’s content marketing landscape: everyone chasing the same puck, saying the same thing, and getting nowhere.

You've got to watch the video version on youtube to fully appreciate this!!
