Athar Naser commented on The radio natives are restless
It seems unfounded that a medium of amazing potential for engagement such as radio isn't utilised in that way entirely. All media has to evolve, all the time - evolve with new ideas, new technologies, and new consumers.

The problem is that too many people see 'evolution' as simply their 'migration' onto the new channels (radio goes online, magazines go digital etc), rather than a shift in how they think about their mediums in relation to the strengths of the new ones.

Content: Creating rather than buying

[Athar Naser] People are attracted to content marketing for a number of reasons. One of the biggest reasons is that digital distribution channels such as social networks, blogs and even their own sites have made it possible for brands to become content creators themselves rather than needing to sponsor traditional media channels.

How to create good content

[Athar Naser] After having read my series of posts over the past few weeks, you'll know that content marketing is a vital part of any digital marketing campaign. To be successful, your campaign must be built around compelling content that keeps the consumer coming back for more, exposing them to your brand and drawing them to your products through a "pull" rather than a hard sell.

What is content curation?

[Athar Naser] When thinking about the content involved in your content strategy, there are two possible routes to take - creation and curation. Creation is, of course, the act of generating your own content. Curation, on the other hand, is the act of 'collecting', or 'collating' content your audience will find useful.

What brands can learn from publishers

[Athar Naser] Online publishers have been perfecting the art of creating online content since the advent of the web. While advertisers have long been using digital to get their message to the consumer, they've only just recently started emulating what publishers do best - developing content that keeps consumers coming back for more.

Difference between content marketing, SEO

[Athar Naser] Content marketing is not SEO. While they might overlap, content marketing and SEO are two distinct types of digital marketing. They are, however, mutually beneficial.

Content analysis explained

[Athar Naser] Traditional advertising messages are no longer effective. To capture the attention of a consumer that is expert at tuning out "buy now" media messages, you need to offer them something they want. This is where content marketing, the latest buzzword in the digital marketing sphere, comes in.

What is content marketing?

[Athar Naser] Content marketing is the latest buzzword in the digital marketing sphere. It's a solution to connecting with today's savvy consumer who has become very good at tuning out media noise they're not interested in. Traditional advertising is no longer effective and rather than telling the consumer to "buy now", brands should be telling the consumer what they want to know.
