10:02 Michael shares a little about the focus of his book ‘The Content Formula’ and how you can get a copy by connecting with him on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelbrenner/) and sending him a message you heard him on our podcast.
11:14 Michael shares his favorite tip to answer the question ‘What’s the one piece of content, what’s the one type of marketing story that every company should focus on?’.
“In the book, The Content Formula, I talk about how every company should be sharing the things that they know, the things that are helpful to their target audience. Those messages are much better received – it almost sounds ridiculously obvious – than what we think we’re supposed to be saying, ‘Hey, we’re awesome, we’re great, buy our stuff because it’s better than the next guy’s’. And no one wants to hear that. It’s like the analogy of the guy that walks in the bar and says, ‘Will you marry me?’ No one’s going to say yes to that. But you know, the person who walks in the bar and says, ‘Hey, everybody, how you doing? What’s going on’? The person that asks questions, the person that seems interested, that shares interesting stories, and tells people what might be helpful to them, that’s how you can generate and attract the target audience that you want and grow your business.” – Michael Brenner
