Easy_as_Pie-Cover


Ever been to a busy restaurant and waited what seemed like forever for your food to arrive? Or, bought a loaf of bread only to bring it home and realize it was stale? It's not easy to run a restaurant, or churn out dozens of perfect pastries. Cooking up quality content isn't easy either. Much like crafting a perfect pastry, creating content that inspires an audience to action takes great skill.


Truthfully, most content kitchens are facing big problems. According to Content Marketing Institute, a mere 30% of B2B marketers and 38% of B2C marketers feel their content marketing is effective. Which is why we partnered up with DivvyHQ and created an eBook to help content marketers take their content planning from messy to simple.


In the Easy-as-Pie Guide to Content Planning, we offer simple tips and recipes that will improve your content planning and effectiveness. These recipes include:



  • Recipe #1 – Easy-as-Pie Content Planning

  • Recipe #2 – Easy-as-Pie People Planning

  • Recipe #3 – Easy-as-Pie Wins & Losses


Along with these recipes, you'll find insights from the most brilliant content marketing chefs on the planet. Here's a sample of what you'll find inside:
