Must-Read Marketing Books for Book Junkies

We are book junkies around here.

And somehow we can’t seem to read a book without recommending it to everyone else in the company. And to our clients. And to our vendors. It’s just who we are: we love to learn and pass on useful information.

So today I noticed my Kindle reading list getting a little stale (that’s a lie – there are at least 15 unread books waiting for me), and I went in search of what everyone else “out there” is reading. I have that whole FOMO thing going with books: what if everyone else has read this and I haven’t?

But what fun are lists of books to read if you don’t share them?

Take some time to browse through these curated lists. Who knows – you may find the next big thing? If you read one that rocks your world, make sure you let me know!

http://www.toprankblog.com/2015/03/content-marketing-bundle-2015/Content Marketing Bundle of Awesome 12 eBooks for Better Content Performance in 2015 The missing piece of the content marketing puzzle for most marketers is a documented strategy according to CMI/MarketingProfs research. The challenge of creating more, engaging content often blurs the importance of answering why, for who and to what end? Solving the strategic thinking issue is essential for creating a strategy and one way to do that is totap into industry thought leadership to identify trends, best practices and examples of what content marketing successlooks like.

I close with a cautionary tale: at some point we need to stop putting more content into our brains and start acting on what we know. And I am definitely preaching that to myself. Sigh.
