Handbook of Content Marketing: From Narrative Storytelling to Strategic ROI
In an era of algorithmic shifts and information overload, the Handbook of Content Marketing provides a definitive framework for creating digital assets that do more than just attract clicks—they build authority and drive conversion. Written by Dr. Anubhav Gupta, this practitioner-focused guide moves beyond “blogging” to explore the science of content as a scalable business engine.
