Influence and impact: The true measures of successful content

Our new ebook answers the common questions on how to influence your audience with B2B content and thought leadership, drawing on approaches from storytelling frameworks to behavioural economics and the work of persuasion experts.

We combine those findings with what we know from our experience of a decade working on high-profile B2B content campaigns. The result is what we hope will be a practical guide to creating genuinely influential content. Request your copy to discover:

  • How to get attention: FT Longitude’s SURE framework and when to apply it
  • And, crucially, how to know if it’s worked
