In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Eric Siu talks about what to do if you are under pressure to report the results of your content marketing.

Siu, who worked on his own podcast for two years before seeing real results, says that the ROI on marketing is not always clear-cut. The connections and clout he eventually established from his work came after an extended amount of time and persistence.

At the end of the day, hard work, patience and commitment will help you see results.
