    Well You did link to several good examples and they are very helpful. As far as clarity, my suggestion was to do the same product or service in the "typical content way' and the brand publishing way. It's going to take a knock on the head for many to get off the content is king bandwagon.

    There is a structured way to generate content. You should consider being shown by an expert. However, you should be passionate enough to write, so it is good you be knowledgeable in the niche that you'll choose.

    Besides writing, videos, podcasts and the rest are all contents.
    All you have to do is provide VALUE VALUE and more VALUE.

    Actually market the content, to many people think writing good content is enough. They call it content MARKETING for a reason.

    This is a key statement! If all that you do is put up great content and hope that the search engines will recognize this and drive traffic to you, it could be a big disappointment for you in the weeks and months ahead. "Build it and they will come" is not true these days on the Web. You have to get out there and promote the heck out of anything that you have to offer, be it a product, a service or even just good content.

    Try using social media syndication. It allows people to market your content on their social profiles, that's how things go viral.

    Make the content appealing to the audience and you may not need anything else to promote it. Content is the king!

    I would suggest a few tools which can be useful to do content marketing in an effective way. My personal favourites: Hubspot (http://www.hubspot.com/), an inbound marketing system to create personalised landing pages, emails and much more, Hootsuite (https://hootsuite.com/), a useful social media management tool, Google Analytics, essential in order to track leads, Curata (http://www.curata.com/), a content curation tool to easily search, organise and share relevant content, and Styla (http://styla.com/), a tool that allows you to create content and style it as a gorgeous magazine, integrating directly shoppable products in it.
