As a Creative Inspirational Leader, keeping on top of trends in digital publishing and content marketing is vital for your business.
The more you know about what’s coming and what’s likely to be popular, the quicker you can apply that information to your business.
And your customers, as well as your competitors, will assume you know what’s going on… in other words, they will see you as a Creative Inspirational Leader in your community.
By combining your own creativity and personal brand with digital publishing, you’ll set yourself apart from the crowd.
Each day, I’ll post the top 10 trends from Future of Ink expert contributors and faculty for the upcoming Digital Publishing Online Intensive 2013.
