There are many books out there disguised as how-to’s, prompting you to tell your story through social media, and to use it as a platform to build a more authentic brand. But let’s be real, most of these books are far removed of specifics with watered down recommendations to use social media to tell your story. Some of the better books on the subject show you how to sell-out your brand for mass appeal. These don’t pass the sniff test of building an authentic brand with great content. That’s where this book comes in.

The Heroik Power of Headlines applies a no-bull methodology to creating a legendary brand with epic content.  Readers can take a deep dive into the mechanics of core content strategy to get, keep and grow customers while bringing more of the inherent characteristics of their brand and culture to the surface. Those looking for a light read will appreciate over 200 headline examples and 80 exercises to help cultivate better headline techniques. The book is full of examples and exercises that will bring your headlines and content into alignment with the aspirations of your brand. 

If you’ve got great content and no-one is nibbling- it’s time to straighten out your headlines. Maybe you’re getting it right in some areas and not in others. This book goes over the entire content experience including:

• The modern metrics to which you should be paying attention
• A social strategy that doesn’t involve binging on Facebook and Twitter (because let’s face it, you’ve got other things to do)
