The Great Content Roundup: Week 1, Topic Content Curation

The Great Content Roundup: Week 1, Topic Content Curation

We’re starting a series of curated posts, called The Great Content Roundup.

 

Welcome to Week 1! 

What to Expect?

In these “roundup” posts, we will summarize and link to anywhere from 5-15 posts in one blog post. These articles and pieces we link to will be the ones that we found held value and use for direct businesses in the areas of content marketing, SEO, and social media. These are posts you won’t want to miss!

 

For Week 1, I want to share some awesome resources with you on curation, since that’s exactly what we’re starting to do with this first post.

Welcome to Week 1 of the Great Content Roundup!

Our Topic: Content Curation

Content curation is becoming more and more a big topic online. As you may or may not know, we launched full content strategy services that include content curation in late 2014. Here are a few great guides that explain content curation in general, and a few more specific posts that offer intelligent insight, including a few of our own guest blogs.

BONUS:

Five Social Media Predictions for 2015 via HuffingtonPost, authored by Tania Yuki. In this brief but thorough piece, Tania explores how social media will change in 2015, including a focus on more personalization and building real relationships. People won’t be in “static buckets” anymore. Since content is all about real people, we totally agree with Tania! She also predicts that Snapchat will become more popular than ever.

President & CEO

Adam Oakley is the President and CEO of Express Writers. He acquired the content marketing agency in 2021 and repositioned it through the AI disruption, shifting it from a founder-led brand to a team-led one on a simple principle: authority is built by people. Adam brings more than fifteen years of operations and client-services leadership to the agency. Before Express Writers, he spent twelve years helping scale AltSource, a software development and IT consulting firm, from $500K to $30M in revenue and from five to more than 200 people. There he ran Fortune 500 client services, co-negotiated a $72M anchor engagement, and led the technical due diligence on the client's roughly $1B sale, exiting as Managing Partner. Earlier, he built the marketing and early-SEO function for a specialty manufacturer, where his content roots began. He holds a B.S. in Business and Communications from Oregon State University. Adam writes on content strategy, operations, and building durable authority in the AI era.
