The weather’s warm, there are tons of other things to do and people are thinking more about red-hot vacation deals than red-hot marketing campaigns. All is not lost however.

If you’ve been reading our other articles, you know we talk a lot about the importance of content marketing. With the media world moving away from traditional (and often expensive) forms of advertising like television, and more towards 21st-century media like Twitter and Facebook and your website, content marketing has become more important than ever. It allows you to tell your story and the story of your company in a unique way. Who are you? Why should someone buy from you rather than the thousand other companies? Content marketing allows you to put a human face on your marketing and gives customers a reason to choose you.

It’s finally warm outside! The birds are chirping, the sun is shining and the grass is actually green instead of the funky shade of brown it’s been for the past eight months. You can be forgiven if you’re a lot more excited about getting back out on the golf course or planning your garden than you are about your marketing plan. After all, half your staff is planning to be out on vacation, and summer is presumably the slow season for many businesses anyway. And really, the only holiday worth mentioning during the whole stretch is the 4th of July.
Right?

The workload really isn’t that big. It just seems that way at the moment. Your clients really aren’t that demanding. It just feels that way right now. The stack of projects at your desk isn’t that huge. It just seems like Mount Everest this morning.
Maybe what you need isn’t necessarily a way to squeeze a few more productive minutes out of your day. Maybe what you need is a vacation.
