12. The modern world has rapidly advanced with the introduction of the internet, the sharing of ideas, global connectivity, communication, conversation and multiplicity. It’s All Media In this world, the customer has developed a voice through social networking. This environment makes for a highly-influential, consumer conversation inside a peer-driven environment where opinions and buying decisions are made. It’s ineffective for Advertisers to push only brand-centric messages out to the consumer but must (1) become aware of where these conversations are taking place (2) be prepared for direct consumer contact (3) engage with your consumer because on this very public platform, marketing becomes conversational!
13. Fundamental Shift: It’s A Two-Way Street! We strategically prepare clients to shift thinking and become more customer-centric with the understanding that advertising has become a two-way street! Marketers must not only champion the brand but engage the brand enthusiast! Prepare for consumer feedback, offer customer service, LISTEN and RESPOND to the conversation. Your brand’s reputation is being discussed in multiple environments through multiple channels – Join the Conversation! You may have heard the era of traditional media has ended…
14. Traditional media (broadcast and even print) still hold significant influence over consumer awareness. In this new media world, It is not to be believed that traditional media is any less important to the advertising process. Broadcast is perfect for laying the brand foundation and announcing: Who, What, When, Where and Why of a product. Broadcast is fantastic for product launches, announcing advantages and awareness, it lends product credibility and can drive new consumers to the conversation for more information or serve as an invitation to sample. Au contraire, If anyone tells you that traditional media is irrelevant…they clearly don’t understand the dynamics of advertising!
15. Stop Talking to the Consumer and JUST LISTEN! Do you hear what customers are saying about your brand? Your customers are championing, some are complaining, other are chatting, many are tweeting, experts are blogging, potentials are talking and everyone is spreading opinions about your brand…Everywhere!
