Learn the research-backed framework that transforms random blog posts into sustainable content ecosystems that compound over time.
95% of published content generates zero backlinks. Your competitors are stuck in the same cycle: publish, promote, move on, repeat. Meanwhile, your content library sits dormant, generating diminishing returns.
There's a better way.
Be Part of Something Special
The Marketing Forest Foundation Course launches this week, and I'm inviting 10 founding members to join me on this journey. As a founding member, you don't just get a course—you help shape it.
6 modules, 54 comprehensive lessons covering the entire Marketing Forest framework—from ecosystem thinking to measurement and optimization.
5 professional video lessons with Ryan Patrick Murray walking you through content ecosystems, ecological principles, and the Five-Content Taxonomy.
Comprehensive written lessons, workbooks, assessments, and quizzes for all remaining modules. Start learning immediately.
Over the next 12 weeks, I'll be creating video lessons for Modules 2-6 based on founding member feedback. You'll get every update automatically.
Every video, every update, every enhancement—forever. As the course evolves, you get everything at no additional cost.
Priority email support and direct communication with R.P.M. Ask questions, get feedback, discuss your specific challenges.
Your feedback influences which topics get video treatment first, what examples to include, and how the course evolves.
Optional listing as a founding member on the course page and in course materials.
If you're not satisfied for any reason, full refund within 30 days.
I could wait until every video is perfect, every feature is polished, and every detail is complete. But that would take months, and you'd miss the opportunity to influence what gets built.
Instead, I'm launching with Module 1 complete and inviting 10 founding members to join me as I finish the course over the next 12 weeks. You get immediate access to start learning, and I get your feedback to make this the best content marketing course available.
It's a partnership. You get 50% off and lifetime access. I get your insights and feedback.
Once the 10 founding member spots are filled, the price increases to $997 and the founding member benefits disappear.

Publishing 2-3 blog posts per week with no strategic framework. Your editorial calendar is a patchwork of trending topics and whatever your CEO read on LinkedIn.
Result: Content that doesn't build on itself. Every piece starts from zero.
Your content strategy resets every quarter. Last year's guide? Already forgotten. You're constantly chasing the latest platform and newest trend.
Result: Exhausted team. Burned out. Nothing to show for years of effort.
Your CMO asks about content marketing ROI. You mumble about "brand awareness" while secretly wondering if any of this actually works.
Result: Shrinking budgets. Pressure for immediate results. Constant justification.
Blog team doesn't talk to video team. Social media repurposes nothing. Sales has no idea what content marketing produces. Everything exists in isolation.
Result: Missed amplification opportunities. Duplicated effort. Fraction of potential impact.
You're not failing. Your approach is failing.
Content marketing isn't broken. Your framework is. And that's exactly what The Marketing Forest fixes.
A systematic approach to content marketing that creates sustainable, interconnected content ecosystems designed for long-term compound growth.

Instead of random content creation, you'll learn to build content ecosystems using five distinct content types that work together synergistically:
Your foundation. Timeless resources that generate value indefinitely and compound over years.
Your differentiation. Proprietary frameworks and original IP that competitors can't replicate.
Your relevance. Timely pieces that capitalize on trends and current events, then naturally fade.
Your rhythm. Recurring seasonal themes that return annually with predictable impact.
Your amplification. Collaborative partnerships that extend your reach through cross-pollination.
The Gestalt Effect
These five types share a root system. The whole is exponentially greater than the sum of parts.
This isn't another content marketing tactic. This is a complete paradigm shift in how you think about, create, and measure content.
The Foundation Course teaches you the principles, frameworks, and systems to build sustainable content ecosystems that compound over time.

The Foundation Course teaches you the framework. Implementation requires commitment, consistency, and patience. Organizations that treat this as a long-term investment systematically achieve these results.
"I've taken dozens of content marketing courses. They all taught tactics. The Marketing Forest finally gave me a strategic framework I could actually implement. Six months in, our organic traffic is up 180% and my CEO finally understands what we're building."

"As a solo founder, I was overwhelmed by content marketing advice. The Foundation Course cut through the noise and gave me a clear roadmap. I now have a content strategy I can execute in 5-10 hours per week that's actually working."

"Our agency was pitching 'content marketing services' but honestly had no real framework. After taking the Foundation Course, we completely restructured our offering around The Marketing Forest. We've signed 3 new clients at 2x our previous rates because we can finally articulate a clear strategy."
