Content Marketing Strategies February 16, 2011
Welcome to the Post Advertising Age
2011 is the year of CONTENT MARKETING.
“2011 TRENDS: CONTENT MARKETING IS CRITICAL”
“Next year, marketers will need to rethink their approach to advertising and marketing and intensify their focus on creating magnetic content that will naturally attract consumers, rather than relying solely on the interruption model of advertising, which consumers are responding to less and less. Think pull vs. push.
“Magnetic content can include anything created on behalf of a brand—be it an ad, YouTube video, online game, Facebook page, Twitter promo or mobile app—that consumers genuinely want to engage with and pass along to others. This content entertains, amuses, informs, serves a function or satisfies a consumer need. It’s welcome instead of annoying or interruptive.”
—Geoff RamseyCEO, eMarketer

THE FUTURE OF ADVERTISING IS CONTENT
• The future of advertising is here.• Find the story at the heart of the brand.• Integration is the critical strategy and the key
is to integrate all marketing around a core narrative in any media channel.
• Deliver audiences by delivering storiesthey want to read, watch and hear—storiesthey want to part of and share.
• The long-term goal of all advertising is tocreate brand fans who will spread your storiesfor free, driving your media spend down, down,down.
• The purpose of a business is to create customers who create other customers.
Every brand has a story to tell, THOSE WHO TELL IT BEST WIN.
Don’t just take our word for it – thanks Tom. Now it must be true!
2011 is the year of STORY-TELLING.
“STORY IS MORE POWERFUL THAN THE BRAND, THE BEST STORY WINS. I AM—SIMPLY, UNABASHEDLY, OUT LOUD, SCREAMING, AND SHOUTING—SAYING, FOCUS ON THE QUALITY OF YOUR STORYTELLING. TURN THAT COMPLEX IDEA INTO STORYTELLING.
AND IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME, TALK TO AN EFFECTIVE TRIAL LAWYER, EVEN IF SHE OR HE WORKS ON COMPLEX COMMERCIAL CASES.”
—Tom PetersManagement Guru

“Stories are a particularly compelling source of information and…public narratives (e.g., books, movies, news stories, TV programs) have the potential to have a profound and far-reaching influence on what we remember, know and believe. It is not hard to imagine a future where the influence of public narratives is even greater as the world increasingly is connected….”
GREAT STORIES PERSUADE, AND THEY CHANGE DEEPLY-HELD BELIEFS
IN Narrative Impact: Social and Cognitive Foundations, MARCIA K. JOHNSON, THE CELEBRATED YALE PSYCHOLOGY PROFESSOR, WRITES:
WHY STORIES ARE IMPORTANT
WHY STORIES ARE IMPORTANT
THEY CAN OPEN CONSUMERS’ WALLETS
“…the commercialization of emotions. It will no longer be enough to produce a useful product: A story or legend must be built into it, a story that embodies values beyond utility. This imperative is already occurring with more and more products.”
–Rolf JensenCopenhagen Institute for Futures Studies

GREAT STORIES ARE THE ONLY PATH TO INTEGRATION ACROSS CHANNELS
ATL EDITORIAL SEARCH SOCIAL WEBSITE WORD OF MOUTH
MOBILE UGC
Someone sees/hears/experiences a message...
They check out what other people have to say…
They try out a brand experience on a website…
And tell their friends (and maybe a few strangers) about it…
Use different media to tell different parts of one rich story.Create a deeper experience.
Provide a foundation for ongoing engagement.
BECAUSE GREAT STORIES will SPREAD.
THE FREE-TIME PARADOX
SHIELDING YOURSELFAudiences feel battered by ‘messaging’ and conversion efforts…they put up their blinders and defend themselves as best they can.
Nobody has 30 seconds for interruption, but everybody has 30 minutes to spread the stuff they like.
REACHING OUT TO OTHERSBut when there’s something they want/like/need, they magically find lots of time to take action, and tell friends/colleagues.
HOW DO BRANDS BECOME PUBLISHERS AND TELL THEIR STORY?

THE PROBLEMIf you spend all your money on paid media, you will have to spend it again next year
OR…You can build brand assets and recruit brand investors, and keep this year’s money working next year and beyond.
…IT’S ABOUT CREATING A CATALYST
Paid media is most efficiently used to jump-start organic pass-along and long-term asset building.
