Brand Journalism
“Content is king.” Coined by Bill Gates in a 1996 essay, this popular phrase suggests that high-quality, relevant content is at the heart of successful marketing strategies. Many types of content exist, however, within the realm of the written word. Among them, brand journalism has become an increasingly popular form of content creation.

Companies today are leveraging brand journalism techniques more than ever before, incorporating brand messaging and a storytelling approach to providing news and updates. However, while the brand is a big part of the focus, accompanying stories may highlight industry highlights, thought leadership, or educational content.

Connect With Your Readers
Readers don’t want pushy or marketing-heavy content. Technical content can inform and educate, but storytelling provides a genuine connection with a brand and the people behind it. And, while AI-generated content has come a long way, many readers still recognize it and view it like other inauthentic content, as not respectful of their time and attention.
