Key ad trend: Continued contraction


Mass
Print or broadcast ad Reach Multiple impressions Large buys Brand and image Pay upfront for impressions Higher cost per sale Inefficient ad buy Advantage: Publisher

Targeted
Web/mobile keyword Precision Limited impressions Small buys Transactional Pay for performance Lower cost per sale Efficient ad buy Advantage: Advertiser

Implications
Geographic monopolies are losing value The one-size-fits-all content model is failing Big iron is a burden, not a barrier to entry High-priced reach advertising is not defensible Traditional high margins face continued pressure

You have an edge


Brand visibility and awareness Large content-creation organizations Large, well-connected sales forces Significant, free marketing impressions You are authentically local You still have time, but

| 2011 Alan D. Mutter | www.newsosaur.blogspot.com | [email protected] | 415.519.2495 | Page 11 |

You are not alone


Technology democratizes publishing and marketing Unlimited choice empowers consumers Direct-to-consumer solutions erode advertising With loyalty transient, your brand power is waning

What you have to do


Expand beyond traditional media and audiences Widen client base and revenue opportunities Diversify beyond legacy products

Reasons to expand beyond traditional media

11/13/11

1 2

Half of all Americans will have smart phones by the end of 2011 and they won't be afraid to use them

We are months, not years, away from the point that more page views will be consumed on small, mobile screens than on desktops

11/13/11

This is a big deal
Faster and more disruptive change for media than the arrival of the Internet

Facebook is grabbing increasing amounts of consumer engagement and mindshare, beating all others in page views and time on site

The ME Media

The WE Media

11/13/11

Mobile media are different


More individualized Knowing who and where you are More immediate A tool to get things done More intimate Putting the ME in media

Social media are even more different


Peer support Community confers belonging and trust among the like-minded Peer pressure Community influences what you read, think, watch and buy Peer power Puts the WE in media

This is not like buying a press


You face a number of constantly moving targets:

Trends, technologies and opportunities will change Consumer preferences will continue to evolve Marketers will demand more accountability and efficiency New, well-financed competitors will emerge relentlessly

You have to be prepared to evolve in real time

Required core competencies


Market research to identify audiences and revenues Product marketing to guide efficient development Technology acquisition, integration and support Go-to-market strategy and tactics Sales training and support

You cant do it individually


This will not succeed as a side project to core business This requires a dedicated, talented and fully focused team You have to do a lot in a short time with limited resources Budget, headcount, skills and bandwidth are insufficient None of you can afford do it alone Working together will enhance your chances of success

| 2011 Alan D. Mutter | www.newsosaur.blogspot.com | [email protected] | 415.519.2495 | Page 35 |

Mission critical
It will require major commitment and cultural change You may have to re-organize your core business You may have to redeploy your capital You have to teach people new skills or find new people Time is not your friend
