Content Marketing - 5 Infographics on Promoting & Repurposing Content

Most business leaders know that content marketing is a vital tool for attracting and converting customers. With buyers completing close to 60 percent of their purchasing decision before contacting your salespeople, the availability of quality web pages, blogs and other resources is essential.

Repurposing also offers buyers alternative ways to consume your content, which can help you reach different segments of your audience.
