Pam Hendrickson – Content Crash Course

A 5-Part Online Training and Coaching Program to Help You Create and Distribute High-Quality Content That Gets You More Customers

The Opportunity to Make Money with Content Marketing Is Huge…Or Is It?

Bloggers, content marketing gurus and the statistics they share might lead you to believe that all it takes is an idea, a blog and a few social media channels and you’ll be enjoying a list of 20,000 buyers with cash rolling in weekly.

For Example, Have You Heard That…

75% of Americans admit to bringing their phone into the bathroom? (A captive audience!)

70% of mobile searches lead to online action within an hour? (An audience primed to buy!)

More people own smartphones than toothbrushes? (That’s almost 2 billion people, all just waiting to meet you!)

Makes you want to run home, throw up a blog and start your empire, doesn’t it? ?

But Here’s the Challenge…

The average time people view a video is just 60-120 seconds.

55% of people who click on a link to an article spend less than 15 seconds reading it.

The average page view time is less than 60 seconds.

And, have you ever heard that a goldfish’s attention span is only 9 seconds?

Guess what? We humans have dipped BELOW the goldfish with an average attention span of 8 SECONDS.

Given those statistics, I have just a few more seconds to say something meaningful :)— so let me lead with this:

Now, more than ever, content is the secret to attracting the right customers and converting sales…but it’s got to be the right content, delivered the right way, at the right time to the right people.

And that’s what I’m here to help you with.

Whether you:

• Feel like a content newbie who doesn’t know where to start
• Struggle to find the confidence or expertise to execute effective content marketing
• Commit random acts of content, but have yet to reap the customers—or the profits—from your work
• Feel overwhelmed about where to start, what to say and where to go to distribute your content or…
• Have a good content system up and running in your business but you know you can be getting better results for all the work you’re putting in…

…I can help you. And Here’s how:

I’ve spent the last 25 years creating, packaging and delivering content that converts for my clients. I served as the executive VP of Content Development at the Anthony Robbins Companies for 18 years, and since I formed my own company, I’ve consulted with major brands, CEOs, celebrities and entrepreneurs and business owners just like you.

In all that time—and with all those clients—I’ve discovered what works, and what doesn’t. In other words, I’ve made all the mistakes and done all the trial-and-error testing so you don’t have to.

And now, I’ve taken everything I know about creating and distributing high-quality content that’s easy to consume and gets you more customers and put it into a simple, 5-step training course.

In my Content Crash Course, I’ll show you how to make content marketing work for your business by helping you 1) attract an audience and 2) convert that audience to paying customers. No hype, no overblown promises. Just real strategies that I’ve tried and tested in the field to get you the results you deserve.

All YOU have to do is bring yourself: your passion, your message and your drive to help other people get results. I’ll take care of the rest.

When you invest in my Content Crash Course, here’s what you’ll receive:

What good is all your content if no one ever sees it? In this step, I’ll show you how to 1) uncover new content distribution channels (paid and free), 2) maximize the 3 types of media and 3) optimize your content so it’s seen by the highest number of people possible within your target market.

In this step, you’ll discover:
