Episode 2: Content Audits Save Development Time

In this episode, I’m chatting with Sallie Goetsch about Content Audits and how they can save you development time. If you’ve every had a project with a lot of existing content, performing an audit of that content BEFORE you begin any design or development work, will save you time. We’ll talk about what it is and how to go about performing one. It is a valuable service to offer that benefits both you and your client.
