Dear Readers,
As I mentioned here yesterday and have been tweeting about for the past few days, today we launch the first part in a series of video vignettes about the green benefits of shopping at Goodwill. The videos follow Miss District of Columbia, Jen Corey, and yours truly, the DC Goodwill Fashionista, as we set out on a Goodwill treasure hunt searching for recycled furniture and accessories to furnish Jen’s new apartment transforming it from empty and bland to chic and colorful…without breaking the bank!
Jen’s platform for the Miss America Pageant on January 30th is recycling, and she chose to work with us to showcase her personal recycling efforts and the value of donating and shopping at Goodwill.

OK, so I am going to admit something that I may not normally admit. Why? I need your help. You see, I’m a bit confused. It started the other day when a colleague asked me, “What is the difference between content marketing and inbound marketing?” After a moment or two of pause, I simply said, great question, let me get back to you.
It was the first time that I really had considered the question and these two terms together. I hear them and see them used all the time. We even just hosted our Twitter #B2Bbookclub on Inbound Marketing: Get Found Using Google, Social Media, and Blogs (The New Rules of Social Media) with Dharmesh Shah. But I still felt unsure how to respond appropriately to the question. So I set out to find some data to clarify my understanding.

Content Marketing at HubSpot:
In this internet and media driven world we live in, we all have the same limitations when it comes to retaining information. Acronyms help your clients manage the abundance of information about you, your products, and services. They cut through the noise and communicate who you are and what you do in the most memorable fashion.

Content Marketing:
Last week I asked the question, “Should Social Media be a College Course” and received quite a number of mixed comments. In the end, I’ve realized that there is an absolute need for at least an interactive marketing course at the college level for marketing majors. New graduates need the tools to succeed online and they deserve to have learned at least the fundamentals.
So if a course is going to be taught what should it cover? How do you get past the fact that so much will change during the semester? I’ve outlined what I would tell the professor, but I want to know what you think too. Here are my thoughts on the subject.

Content Marketing:
A Social Media Campaign (SMC) begins with understanding your goals and choosing the strategic network of target distribution and delivery points that become your network infrastructure of social media solutions working together for your successful Internet presence.
No two solutions are the same because each one must target your ideal customer. Your business, your customers, your B2B network, your vendors, your public. We research and set your social media to be received by the most promising audiences.

I’m extremely thankful this year…for many things. Re: business, it’s hard to imagine just a few years ago I was working for “the man” and how this year I have been able to spread the word about content marketing all over the world. It’s quite humbling actually.
Here’s what I’ll be doing more of over the next year to insure more good things will happen in 2010.

If you are new to social media, or are someone who has been in the industry for a while, you are likely familiar with Mashable, the most popular blog dedicated to discussions about the social web. Jeff and I talk frequently about what makes Mashable so successful. Interestingly though, how they succeed has a lot of application on B2B content marketing.

I’ve been writing about having a small business website, in 8 Options to Quickly Build a Web Presence for your Startup, about using a blog to promote your business in Building Success By Blogging: An Architect’s Story and even about Smart Blogging Strategies. Today we’re going to explore the magic of a technology called RSS, which stands for Really Simple Syndication. RSS lets you publish content on your site, and have other people easily view it on many other sites.

The term “Web 2.0″ is commonly associated with web applications which facilitate interactive information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design[1] and collaboration on the World Wide Web. Examples of Web 2.0 include web-based communities, hosted services, web applications, social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, mashups and folksonomies. A Web 2.0 site allows its users to interact with other users or to change website content, in contrast to non-interactive websites where users are limited to the passive viewing of information that is provided to them.

3 Components of Content Marketing
By Sarah Mitchell on 19 November 2009 | Global Copywriting
Content marketing is gaining a lot of traction in the mindset of marketers and, especially, small business owners. I recently presented a seminar on the topic at the Brew Small Business Expo in Perth. While doing my research I realised much of what is being written about content marketing assumes the reader understands the basic components. I didn’t fully understand them when I started so I thought it made sense to lay the groundwork here.
