The ChangeOver | by Weidert Ep 19: Andy Crestodina’s Guide to Winning the Content Marketing Marathon
INTRO:
In 2001, Andy Crestodina built websites. Today, he’s reshaping how industrial marketers approach content.
Join Jo Phillip’s conversation with the Orbit Media Studios co-founder and author of Content Chemistry as he dismantles conventional wisdom about digital marketing’s evolution. Andy delivers practical frameworks backed by two decades of data and experience, revealing which strategies have survived the algorithmic evolution — and which new approaches are poised to dominate in a landscape that’s increasingly AI-driven but still fundamentally human.
