But I think it is important to explain what is meant. Content + People = Failure, unless it is the right content and the right people.

Let’s define our terms:

Content – this is deeply engaging content that is personalized to the reader – his pains, his roles, his problem, etc. Take the time to understand buyers and solve their problems with your content.

People – There are two parts to this.

It’s critical that you find the right people to help you. I suggest every business compile a “List of 20″ – the 20 key people who can help your business.

Make sure your list contains “sneezers.” (Sneezers are the ones who spread colds) In the

We hope this helps explain the Elevation Principle in this new book.
