In today's digital landscape, content marketing has become a crucial aspect of any successful marketing strategy. Content marketing involves creating and distributing valuable, relevant, and consistent content to attract and engage a target audience. But simply creating content without a well-defined strategy is like shooting in the dark. This is where content strategy comes into play. It provides a systematic approach to planning, creating, delivering, and managing content that aligns with business goals and meets the needs of the target audience.

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, businesses are constantly seeking innovative ways to attract, engage, and delight their customers. The traditional, interruptive marketing methods are no longer as effective as they once were. Customers now prefer to take control of their buyer journey, conducting research on their own terms and making purchasing decisions based on trust.

Colors compose a secret language that only the human subconscious – and savvy inbound marketers – can understand. There's a reason the walls of your local fast food restaurant are orange, red and yellow. These are colors that subconsciously excite you and stimulate your appetite. There is a science behind the calming shade of green of your favorite coffee shop’s cups and why there's so much red in casinos. The language of color is a huge advantage in the world of marketing.

To say that orange makes you hungry is an oversimplification. The orange countertops aren't going to bring in customers who are full and make them eat. But marketing surveys have shown that color is an element that directly affects consumer behavior. Color plays on associations in the mind that can elicit certain responses, which is why it’s one of the most powerful design elements on websites, ads, direct mail, and other marketing materials.

Colors do elicit responses, but these responses vary slightly from person to person. However, according to marketing research, there are some common associations made with certain colors.

After approximately 20 years of international Boomer leadership, the torch has been passed to Jonesers, who now comprise over two thirds of the current Presidents and Prime Ministers of EU and NATO member countries. America’s Obama, France’s Sarkozy, Germany’s Merkel, Australia’s Gillard, New Zealand’s Key, and Canada’s Harper are some of many GenJones leaders who are redefining global affairs. This array of dignitaries is mirrored in our local political and leadership officials. Local inbound marketers need to take note.
