The second edition of our State of Content Marketing Survey has landed!

The brand new results have revealed how marketing professionals are struggling to convince decision makers about the worth of content marketing, thanks to a mixture of high expectations and a lack of focus in terms of clear ROI. Marketers shared their frustrations of not being able to prove the effectiveness of content marketing, with only 1 in 5 of those polled confident that they were carrying out their campaigns using “best practice”.

These knowledge gaps combined with a wide range of objectives to achieve increases the potential for poor perceived performance, fortunately there is a way to ease these frustrations. A strong strategy.

It’s not stopping marketers spending more (yet) but it is abundantly clear now that those at the execution end of those plans have never been under more scrutiny than they are now, or pressure to improve output to achieve the desired result.
