A4: Talk to your customers, sales people and your customer service people. Stories don’t have to be old or historical. A great way of serving a customer from last week can make a great story. “Here’s how we helped this person…just imagine how we can help you!” #CMWorld

A4: Don’t just tell the story of your company or products – tell the stories of your customers. Lots of stories there. #cmworld

A6: It depends on your #industry and #audience since your audience’s interests and behaviors should define your content #goals and #strategy. #CMWorld

A6 Not sure it’s a tactic, per se, but the human/personal touch is a HUGE small biz advantage when it comes to content. #cmworld
