Getting Started With Sponsored Content

Written by StoryStudio | Oct 1, 2019 3:12:18 AM
We all know that content is a wildly powerful marketing tool for brands.

In fact, according to research by Hubspot, people remember branded content twice as long as they remember traditional advertisements. Plus, it is 22x more engaging than banner ads.

From long-form articles to podcasts and videos, creating valuable content requires a bigger investment than using other advertising channels and takes time to produce. However, sponsored content results in way more bang for your marketing buck. Branded content distributed by a trusted publisher results in 50% higher brand lift.
