# [Branded Content Marketing - 25 Resources to Boost Your Success](https://www.brainzooming.com/blog/branded-content-marketing-25-resources-to-boost-your-success)

This afternoon, I’m leading a [three-hour Brainzooming workshop on creating branded content marketing at the Social Media Strategy Summit in Chicago](https://www.brainzooming.com/social-media/). While it’s nice to be able to stretch with more time (typically these content marketing workshops are two hours at the Social Media Strategy Summit), I still feel as if there will be a lot of material that we won’t have time to fully cover.

In the branded content marketing workshop, we’ll look at generating appropriately branded content from multiple directions.

As a resource if this area is something you are struggling with in your organization, here are links to some of the topics on branded content marketing we’ll cover . . . and some that we won’t:

Coming at your branded content marketing from these four different directions will open up all kinds of new possibilities.

Here’s the intriguing thing: having rearranged the content into these four groups (which don’t sync with the seven lessons in the workshop as it stands right now), I’m thinking (as I write this over the preceding weekend) that I’m going to rearrange the entire branded content marketing workshop. That’s how much I like this approach!  - *[Mike Brown](https://www.brainzooming.com/about-brainzooming/mike-brown/)*
