It doesn't get any better for content marketers. They present a balanced, insightful discussion of current trends and ask all the right questions. Their guest list is a "Who's Who" of content professionals. Outstanding.

The Marketing Book Podcast
Anna Hrach, Strategist at Convince & Convert, joins the Content Pros Podcast to discuss culture and consistency.
Focus on the Culture
According to biologists, a properly functioning body is a massive ecosystem of individual beneficial organisms working together to sustain balance and progress. When these pieces are healthy and efficient, we see them as a single productive entity.
In the same way, a healthy business is made up of individuals who all work together to keep the greater “organism” growing and moving forward. The converse is also true, when part of the ecosystem is unbalanced the overall health is in jeopardy.
When it comes to hiring, it can be easy to focus on an individual’s skills but miss the way that your culture will be affected. Just like the body, you can always train to strengthen different parts, but the inside must be healthy first. By focusing on culture, you can bring your business to a place of long-term growth and productivity.
