2 Content Marketing is Revolutionizing How Businesses Connect to Their Customers. Buyers crave information that can help them to solve a problem or address a need, but studies show that they only find relevant content 42% of the time.* Content marketing is the discipline of creating and distributing relevant content to the right audience at the right time with the objective of driving profitable customer action. While nine out of ten B2B marketers are using content in their marketing and the majority plans to increase their content marketing budgets in 2011 there is still a lot of confusion on how to best execute these strategies.* Chief Content Officer (CCO) is the first globally-distributed magazine devoted to the fast-growing, evolving field of content marketing. It is written by, for, and about the most innovative, influential global content marketers. The magazine will showcase how content marketers are finding success in the field, focusing on the tools, technologies and processes they use to help marketers learn new skills and apply lessons to their own organizations. The magazine will have print and digital editions, as well as the backing of The Content Marketing Institute (CMI), the leading online site for content marketers. *Data sources available on request What is the Content Marketing Institute? Since 2007, Junta42 has been like the eharmony for content marketing for some of the world s largest brands. They provide a free service for organizations that need expert content providers to produce and distribute their content. They are one of the go-to communities around content marketing, with the annual content spending report, the list of top 42 content marketing blogs and many other resources. Junta42 s sister site is the CMI, which helps marketers specifically with the how-to of content marketing.

Both sites were founded and led by Joe Pulizzi, who is one of the founders of the content marketing movement. He has spent more than a decade teaching marketers how to be publishers as he has traveled the world talking to businesses, in keynotes and workshops, about the need to create valuable media channels, leveraging print, online, in-person and social media platforms in the process. He is also co-author of the handbook on content marketing, Get Content Get Customers. 2
