Here's how you can ready yourself for the future of content strategy.
I used to be skeptical of AI. Afraid of it, in fact. But I have found that AI can be a great tool if used properly -- in other words, don't generate content with AI and then pass it off as your own. Ways that you can gain value from AI in content marketing include: -- Generating ideas for content. -- Producing titles for content. -- Creating outlines for content strategy. -- Researching what your competitors are doing with content. There are so many ways that your content strategy can benefit from AI. Again, as long as it's used prudently. So, don't fear AI. Become its friend. The payoff could be huge in terms of time and even money.

Honorable Mention, Best Commercial Real Estate Trade Magazine Story
National Association of Real Estate Editors (NAREE)
Judges’ comment: "In this illuminating story, Egan profiles Glenn Rufrano, who has a reputation for being a top turn-around expert at several companies, including his current position as CEO of VEREIT. In interviews with Rufrano’s colleagues and friends, Egan paints a picture of a well-respected executive who enters businesses with complex problems and sorts through them with calm deliberation and transparency. It’s a well-written and well-researched profile."
