Implications
• Convergence is upon us; Brands should embrace media coming together in new, exciting ways.
• Mass Media has become Lifestyle Media; Brands should engage the consumer in a conversation, on their terms.
• Ideas are more important than ever; Brands should then employ the media tactics that can best activate their message.
• Not enough to simply check the appropriate media box (e.g. “online” or “TV”); Brands should explore innovation within these mediums for new ways to communicate.
