3 Clips Podcast by Castos

It's the second edition of our miniseries with Contently's head of marketing Joe Lazauskas. In this episode, author and MSR founder Jay Acunzo talks to Joe about a common objection to creating higher quality content: resource constraints. Joe dives into his book, The Storytelling Edge, to reveal the four traits of great stories -- none of which require much budget or time to incorporate into a marketer's typical work.

Creative Blocks is a three-part series to diagnose what's REALLY preventing makers and marketers from putting out better work. Each episode, we go one level deeper than the complaint marketers say or hear to find the true cause, then address it.
