You've heard about content strategy but still have questions. Or you want your company to implement a content strategy but you can't convince your executives. Then you need to get a copy of Content Strategy.This isn't a Dummies book. It assumes that you already know about things like CRM and branding. It doesn't tell you how to create good content.
