Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Epic Content Marketing
Joe Pulizzi · 2013
78/100
👍 Worth It
Joe Pulizzi built the vocabulary that most content marketers now use without attribution, and this book is where it lives. Some platform-specific advice has aged out, and the depth can overwhelm solo operators, but the strategic framework for becoming a trusted publisher rather than an interrupter is still the clearest articulation of the idea in print.
