The CMA regularly hosts breakfast sessions to explore different areas of content marketing so that our community can learn from experts in the industry to improve their content plans and knowledge. This breakfast is being hosted as a virtual webinar series and will be focused on using video as a content marketing tool.

Each session will run for approximately 15 minutes with time for Q&A, and we’ll be pausing for a break midway through the morning so that you can grab a coffee to refuel before getting stuck in to part 2! Don’t worry if you can’t watch the webinar series live, as you can register to watch the replay on demand at a more convenient time. Just remember to register for both sessions!
