Marketers Are Becoming Media

Marketing’s New Frontier

Consumers are now in control of media consumption, and it has changed how marketers must manage message creation and distribution.

Technology offers marketers direct access to the audience, providing a more dynamic mix of data and context. Therefore, marketers must create a more dynamic mix of content.

Creating, publishing and distributing such a dynamic mix of content is forcing marketers to operate like the media – nimbly and in real-time.

Empower created Magnetic Content Studios to help marketers create the media that attracts and engages the audiences that are critical to their businesses.

The OldContentStrategy

Content Marketing Is

Content marketing is the process of:

1. Sustaining the creation and distribution2. Of information or creative materials3. That are timely, relevant and valuable to an audience4. As determined exclusively by that audience5. In support of an organization’s overall strategic business

and/or marketing objectives.

The first four parts of this process are essentially no different fromhow publishers and the media operate.

Marketers are marketing content to attract and retain audiences to drive their businesses.

Marketers are simply replicating the media production process to drive

their own businesses, directly.
