Ben Ard, founder of Masset, built a unified content library solution because, let's be honest, Google Drive is where content goes to die.

In this conversation, Ben breaks down how AI is about to create a 260x increase in content volume — and what B2B marketers need to do to prepare.

The Content Tsunami Is Coming

AI tools are making it easier than ever to create content. But more content doesn't mean better content. Ben argues that the real challenge isn't creation — it's organization, discovery, and activation.

Key Takeaways

1. Your Content Library Is a Mess

Most B2B companies have content scattered across Google Drive, Notion, Confluence, shared folders, and individual laptops. No one can find anything, so they create new content instead of repurposing what exists.

2. AI Makes the Problem Worse Before It Gets Better

When you can generate blog posts, social content, and email copy in minutes, the volume of content explodes. Without a system to organize and activate it, you end up with more noise, not more signal.

3. The Solution: A Content Operating System

Ben's approach:

  • Centralize all content in one searchable library
  • Tag and categorize by persona, stage, topic, and format
  • Make it discoverable so sales and marketing can find and use it
  • Track performance to know what's working and what's not

4. Repurpose Before You Create

Before creating new content, ask: "Do we already have something we can repurpose?" A webinar recording can become a blog post, social clips, an email sequence, and a sales enablement deck.

The Bottom Line

The companies that win the content game won't be the ones that produce the most — they'll be the ones with systems to organize, discover, and activate their content at scale.
