Creating and Using Primary Fuel
Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.

The right content has the power to shape opinions, change minds, and spur action. It also fuels your business, propelling your rocket ship through the atmosphere toward new frontiers.

In this chapter I will examine the importance of creating primary fuel, and look at what it can achieve. I'll also provide details on how to create the six different types of primary fuel.
