Data—facts and statistics that are collected and used for reference or analysis—is far from a boring group of information bits. The most promising journalism start-ups of recent years focus on data journalism, the practice of finding stories in numbers and using numbers to tell stories. This is great news, because marketing in 2015 is all about content, and content creation requires presenting stories and information in a way that’s engaging to the reader. This report will help business leaders apply the data journalism model to content strategy and marketing campaigns.
