Since the virtual world has become a megaphone for anyone with an opinion to push their content, it has become apparent we all could use a little more high school English.
Anyone wanting to add inbound marketing strategies will be required to provide something more than kool-aid content which is something more than grammar dribble.
Once you decide it is time to raise the bar with the hope of impressing those who are in a different league... you will learn new skills, hire a new team or possibly turn to software for a solution.
