Attention is one of the fundamental goals of digital marketing. Having a clear strategy for capturing and holding attention in order that you can communicate your value and build relationships with the people who need what you provide is so important, but also surprisingly hard.Many people resort to silly tactics to get attention, but when someone naturally captures your attention online and rapidly connects with you, it's very impressive.

When I see really successful people online they all seem to have something in common. They have ‘presence’. The same can be said for large organisations as well.  It's like all the doors and windows are thrown open and you're welcomed in.  This kind of real online presence ( I'm avoiding saying authentic - but authentic ) is so different from the polished veneer of the Instagram influencer or the traditional large corporation.This week my guest is Chris Brogan and we're going deep into why this is hard and how it can all be so easier.About ChrisChris Brogan is president of Chris Brogan Media, offering business storytelling and marketing advisory help for mid to larger sized companies. Chris is a sought after keynote speaker and the New York Times bestselling author of nine books and counting.
