The problem
Most content marketing isn’t working anymore. Here’s why.
Publishing consistently used to be enough. It isn’t. If your traffic has plateaued, it’s almost certainly a strategy problem, not a volume problem.
01
Buyers research before they find you
A growing share of B2B buyers open a chat window and ask an AI before they ever land on your site. If your content isn’t getting cited in those answers, you’re invisible at the moment they form opinions.
02
Publishing without pillars converts nobody
Content without a clear point of view doesn’t rank, doesn’t get cited, and doesn’t give readers a reason to come back. Most companies publish in five directions and own none of them.
03
The bar for useful went up significantly
A basic how-to article used to earn a click. Now a reader gets a free AI answer in three seconds. Competing requires specific expertise and a real point of view.
The hidden cost
Content without strategy is just noise you’re paying to create
The companies winning at content in the AI era aren’t publishing more. They’ve got 3 to 5 topics they’re genuinely authoritative on, a clear picture of who they’re writing for, and content structured to get found by both humans and AI systems.
That’s not a content production problem. It’s a strategy problem. And it’s fixable.
What’s included
The Content Marketing Strategy Report
Eight specific deliverables built around your business. Not a template. A strategy you can hand to a writer and start executing the day you receive it.
01
MINI Content audit
A quick snapshot of where your content stands today: what’s working, what’s not, and what to stop publishing.
02
ICP and buyer persona
A precise definition of who you’re writing for, including how that specific buyer researches before they buy.
03
3-5 content pillars
The specific topics your brand should own, with angles your competitors haven’t claimed. Each pillar comes with clear rationale.
04
Channel strategy
Where to publish, ranked by ROI for your specific business, with the reasoning behind each recommendation.
05
90-day content roadmap
A specific publishing calendar with topic recommendations for the first three months. Not categories, actual topics.
06
AI visibility assessment
An honest look at whether your content is structured to get cited by AI systems, with specific fixes for what isn’t.
07
Topic cluster map
A visual map of how your content topics connect to build authority in your category over time.
08
30-day quick wins
Three specific things to change right now, before the 90-day roadmap even starts. Low effort, immediate impact.

Who’s building your strategy
About Rick Ramos
I started in marketing during the early commercial internet, running campaigns for what was then the 17th largest website in the world. Two of those campaigns crossed three billion impressions with click-through rates the industry hadn’t seen before or since.
After adtech, I spent eight years as CMO of HealthJoy, taking the company from zero to a $500 million valuation with more than 1,500 employer clients. I wrote the first edition of Content Marketing in 2013. I’m publishing Content Marketing 2.0: Built for the AI Era in 2026 because the system changed underneath us again.
Today I work as a fractional CMO across health tech, fintech, insurance, energy, and professional services. The Content Marketing Strategy Report is the same analysis I run with fractional clients, delivered as a standalone product.

Before you order
Common questions
What information do you need from me?
After checkout you’ll receive a short intake form asking about your business, target customers, current content, competition, and goals. About 15 minutes to complete.
Is this a template or built for my business specifically?
It’s custom. The pillars, topics, and channel recommendations are built around your specific business. You’ll be able to tell from the first page that it’s about you, not a fill-in-the-blank document.
My industry is pretty niche. Will this still work?
Yes. The framework has been applied to health tech, fintech, insurance, energy, professional services, and consumer brands. Niche industries often produce clearer strategies because the audience is better defined.
Do I need to schedule a call?
No. The whole process is async. You complete the intake form, we build the strategy, and the report lands in your inbox.
How is this different from the book?
The book teaches the framework. The Strategy Report applies it to your business specifically — your audience, your competitors, your goals.
What format is the report delivered in?
PDF, sent to your email within 5 business days of completing the intake form.
What if I want ongoing help after I receive the report?
Reach out via the contact page to discuss a fractional CMO engagement.
What is the “Mini” content audit?
A full content audit for a company can be a multi-month project if it involves thousands of pieces across years or decades. A mini content audit is a 30-day lookback and quick gutcheck with recommendations.
Stop guessing. Get a content strategy that actually works.
