Looking for some good books to help with content marketing? Roger Parker recently suggested seven productivity books for content marketers that our readers appreciated. Here, we ask our Content Marketing Institute consultants — many who are authors themselves — to share their favorite books for content marketers.
I have two absolutely MUST READS for every digital marketer today. The first is Theodore Levitt’s Marketing Myopia paper from the 1960s, and the second is Youngme Moon’s book Different. From a storytelling perspective, I think all content marketers should be familiar with Joseph Campbell’s Hero With A Thousand Faces. From a more tactical content marketing perspective, Content Rules by C.C. Chapman and Ann Handley is a great one – and I loved Jay Baer’s Now Revolution. Also, from an SEO and Content Marketing perspective, Lee Odden’s book Optimize is an excellent one.– Robert Rose | Co-Author of Managing Content Marketing | @Robert_Rose

The one book I always suggest above all others is Made to Stick. That one book explains everything about the mindset you must possess if you want to be successful in today’s online social world. People always give me a weird look when it is the only book I tell them to read, but if you don’t understand what is in these pages, the rest won’t matter.– C.C. Chapman | Co-Author of Content Rules | @cc chapman
I love Brand Hijack by Alex Wipperfurth, Blink and Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell and The Referral Engine by John Jantsch.- Jason Falls | Co-Author of No Bullshit Social Media | @JasonFalls
