Content Weekly By The CMA: 6th March

Hi ,

I hope you’re having a great week. As we move into March, we’ve got a few important things to highlight – one wrapping up soon and two exciting opportunities ahead.

First, our CMA Pulse survey closes tomorrow (Friday 7th), so if you haven’t shared your insights yet, now’s the time. It only takes a minute, and your input helps shape a clearer picture of the content marketing industry.

Take the survey here.

A quick reminder that the Early Bird deadline for the 2025 International Content Marketing Awards has been extended until Friday 14^th March.

If you haven’t secured your discounted entry yet, now’s your chance. Take advantage of the extra time, lock in your entry at a lower rate (£100 less per entry), and submit your work when you're ready.

Looking ahead, our Content Breakfast at the beautiful Bourne & Hollingsworth Buildings in Clerkenwell is fast approaching.

On Thursday 20^th March, Gary Millone (Dialogue) and Sophie Musson (Rocket) will share their expertise on building strong brand partnerships that lead to award-winning content.

With insightful discussions, expert speakers and great networking opportunities, it’s the perfect way to start your day.

The event kicks off at 8.30am with breakfast and networking, followed by panel discussions from 9.15am.

Visit our website to secure your ticket today. I hope to see you at the breakfast and in the survey results.
