Content Marketing isn’t living up to it’s promises. For the past several years, content marketing has been all the rage. There are current success stories seemingly everywhere. Like I imagine so many of you have experienced, we adopted content marketing with high hopes here at CoSchedule. When we started up, we needed the traffic… we needed the success story to be our story… but we weren’t getting it. Instead, we found quality + consistent content wasn’t—and couldn’t—be the promised driver of ROI. It just wasn’t enough.

Since then, we’ve honed the 10x Marketing Formula to grow from zero customers to 9,000+, zero email subscribers to 250,000+, and pageviews from zero to 1.5 million every single month. And we did it all in less than four years.
