Today's Consumer Is Taking Control

Contact Knowledge Direct & Interactive LLC to discuss how we can help you.

Consumers no longer "consume" the media diet that marketers have grown accustomed to feeding us.

Our media habits have changed and it's more difficult than ever to reach today's consumer.

Traditional media advertising is less effective than its ever been.

Traditional media advertising rates continue to climb. Who in their right mind would pay more for something that is less effective?

• Do you know anyone who records television programs and then watches them later while skipping past all of the commercials?
• Do you know anyone who listens to music on an iPod or other similar device?
• Do you find yourself changing the radio station whenever there's a commercial? Or maybe you're one of the more than 9.2 million consumers that already subscribes to commercial-free satellite radio?
• Do you ever find yourself quickly scanning through a newspaper in an effort to find only the information that's most relevant to you?
  
• Do you know people who spend more time online today than they did just three or five years ago?
• Do you know anyone who subscribes to websites and opt-in email newsletters (and other online information sources)?

Consumers are "tuning out" traditional advertising more than ever before.

DVR, TiVo, iPod and iTunes, Napster and the surge in popularity of the Internet are a few examples of these shifts in consumer behavior.

Technology is changing the way marketers reach consumers.

Gone are the days of simply throwing marketing dollars at mass media advertising campaigns. Technology increases the importance of looking at whether an idea can tie in to multiple activities, not simply on TV or on the radio.

Industry insiders already know that traditional advertising has lost some of its appeal and a lot of its effectiveness. The companies and brands that continue to ignore the reality of the changing consumer and business environment will be left behind. It's that simple.

That means that every marketer that hasn't already changed their methods is wasting budget and not reaching the same audience that they did just a few years ago.

But it's not too late.

You can still capitalize on innovative marketing techniques and cutting-edge technologies.
