Media is Killing Social Media: 10 New Ways to Win

Description:

In the age of ‘all data everything’ we are overwhelmed with metrics and measurements on every platform, piece of content and behavior. The rise and rise of paid media on social, along with the metrics, kpis and jargon that come with it is suffocating creativity in digital marketing and wasting brands money. Media agencies and social platforms are promoting "best practise" that actually harms your chances of success.

Combined with the marketing shift to short-termism the industry now priorities measuring efficiency over effectiveness. We’re looking for immediacy rather than impact, reach over resonance and prioritizing a ‘2 second 50% in view’ view over a genuine reaction.

We want brands and agencies to take a stand and provide them with 10 new rules for winning on social media.
