Ehsan's Growth Commentary

The data from 218 companies shows Content Marketing generates 28% of pipeline for Media companies at Public. But only when implemented with discipline. Scale what works, kill what does not. No emotional attachment to channels.

For 500+ people teams: assign one person to own Content Marketing end-to-end. Shared ownership means zero accountability. Hire a specialist with industry experience.
