CONTENT MARKETING
Paid rather than earned contributed articles that closely resemble editorial content and often slotted in the news section, once-sacred ground.
AKA: “Paid Content” or “Native Advertising”

HOW DID WE GET HERE?
• Erosion of Classic Revenue Streams– Advertising prices decline sharply
• The glut of supply (inventory) is outpacing audience demand (traffic)
• Banners no longer tenable as news consumption goes mobile• Digital ad exchanges now widely in use increasing market
efficiency
– Consumers unwilling to pay for news
• Feeds Create New Norms– Chronological format has changed audience attitudes
towards the permeability between advertising and editorial.
• Brands Double Down on Content– Companies are able to tell their story their own way on
websites, mobile apps, and social channels.
