Content marketing as stated in the book is “an online marketing tactic that uses blogs, videos, infographics, and other content to attract and engage customers.” The thing that surprised me the most in our book was the amount of people who joined a union in the 19th century. I remember learning about the union and the strikes they held throughout school, I just do not remember it being as big as it was. I am very thankful for the changes that have come from the people in the union who chose to fight for better pay and working conditions. They definitely have influenced and changed the working world and made it what it is
