“If you really look closely, most overnight successes took a long time."

--Steve Jobs

It truly takes time to develop a catalog of content that educates and informs your prospects. One great piece is a good start, but if you want readers to keep returning, then you need to consistently offer usable, interesting, and valuable content on an ongoing basis. A single viral piece, pin, tweet or blog will attract attention for a short period of time, but consistently posting helpful content on an ongoing basis is what truly makes you a success.

Positioning yourself as a true expert and thought leader takes time – and a volume of helpful and informative content doesn’t happen overnight. The continual effort you put into your inbound marketing campaigns will definitely pay off well over time.
