Media Buying
Purchasing advertising can be challenging. There are so many outlets to choose from and they all tell you they are the right one for you.

Native Content
Native Content/Sponsored Content/Native Advertising is all the rage. What is it and why is it important to you? In the most basic sense Native Content is using story-telling to promote and advertise your product or service. The fact is that people remember stories better than they remember other styles of communication. Typically, it is paid for and/or written by an advertiser (hence the sponsored label) but done in a journalistic style. Many times native advertising doesn’t pitch a particular product in the usual sense. The products promotion and branding is a byproduct of the story or is interwoven into the story.
A story or short video has a lot of impact and can help build your brand more quickly than traditional advertising. We don’t always know what we are actually in the market for and native content engages us and brings in prospects that might have ignored other styles of marketing.
