Course overview

Rules to create, analyze, interpret, and build high-performing content programs.

"This is the underpinning of how this industry-wide conversation needs to be." - Sarah Sher. | Director of Content - Codeless (Round 1 Student)


🔸 Are you unsure of how to approach audience research—or what it really even is? 


🔸 Do you struggle to get approval on strategies that are outside leadership’s limited view of content?


🔸 Does the content you’re producing feel irrelevant, disconnected, or ineffective?


Content Theory is an actionable approach and proven framework that gives content professionals and non-marketing c-suite leaders a durable, repeatable process they can follow to build content programs that are creatively fulfilling, effectively distributed, and distinctly algorithm-proof.

Most content marketers are stuck “playing content”

01

60% of content marketers are unsure or unconfident their content stands out on voice.

02

43% of content marketers report not doing their research nearly enough.

03

Only 30% of in-house content marketers feel their leadership is fully bought-in.

The nitty-gritty details:

An Intimate Five-Day Virtual Event:


"Very, very few, if any courses are as nutritional in terms of value-per-minute as what Tommy put together." - Ryan Baum - Content Consultant


Four jam-packed interactive group-based lessons and a day to reflect and discuss learnings and how to apply them.

A Methodology For Creating Differentiated, High-Performing Content


"The way he gets you thinking about your audience's wants and needs, it's almost impossible to create a similar piece of content." - Erica Schneider - Cut The Fluff


You'll get the systems and frameworks I've used to create wildly differentiated content for Fortune 1,000 brands.

An Entirely New Way of Thinking


"Everyone is rethinking their approach to content marketing and I think your approach digs into things that are eternal." - Emily Epstein - Sigma


We're at an inflection point. If we keep doing things the same way, we're toast. It's time to adapt and rethink what's possible.

A Reinvigorated Passion For The Work


"When you come out of it, you'll realize it is B2B's moment, I'm feeling refreshed again, I'm feeling like this industry is possible, and we're not just selling degrees of differentation." - Sara Sher - Codeless


I love this stuff and I want to help you fall back in love too.
