Connected people ‘consume’ differently
It used to be: Dominate and win!
Basically... our world has been pretty much top-down until now
....until now
The TV Generation The Net Generation
Reaching Millions of Reaching the perfect
 People at the same 100 people that each
time - with the same reach 100 people
content or message that each reach 100
 or... advertisement      people...
•“Empowering People” i.e. the consumers i.e. the
users is the winning theme everywhere
• API Culture is booming: “Build yours with mine”
• A lot of what used to cost money is becoming
‘free’ (eMail, phone calls, news, games, music...)
• Sharing explodes
• Interruption-Marketing becomes ‘Mission Impossible’
• Captive audiences are are thing of the past
Connected people ‘consume’ .... Not;)

   The Link  Economy
 C ulture of Participation
         Meritocracy
     Real-Time Everything
 Sh aring is the key driver
Advertising is Content -
We can't think of ads as
separate ‘stuff’ any more.
The captive audiences are
vanishing - so who do we
desire to interrupt?
Maybe we only needed
traditional Advertising &
   Marketing because
         we were

        Not
Connected
And we will have to get used to monetary
value being derived in many new forms!

Real-Time is becoming crucial

• Don’t memorize - find!
• Find: when and where you need
  it - not before
• Location and Timing
• Augmented Realtime Data
• Cloud services: links not storage!
Social search and peer navigation
And yes, everyone everywhere will be...




Marketing will be sourced this way, too
We are in
the midst of
re-defining:
People subscribe to People

The biggest opportunities are

      in connecting the


 Cloud             with the

      Crowd
•Control is no longer really
 feasible, and is quickly being
 replaced with Trust
•Data is the new Oil
•Privacy is the next major issue
     Command & Control
          is becoming

“I need to get my message
  out to as many people as
   possible, as quickly as
          possible”

         “I need to have

 community, make my product
 as attractive as possible, and
     set it free as much as

Great User Interface & User

The Mobile Use *fka
 ‘Consumption’ of Digital

My Keywords for mobile communications -
and the new ‘Advertising’ that will go with it
• Devices feel like ...books
• Touch / Draw / Zoom UIs and UXs
• Always-on, 4 sure (mashed access)
• OS / Software on the network
• Very low power consumption
• Explosion in location-based services
• Technology becomes even more
 invisible

              $43 Billion in U.S. (BISG)

If Access replaces Ownership as Default...
Experience

Embodiment

Access
How will access to content be paid for?

  Paid by 3rd Parties
          Flat-Rates
           Bundles

     Access
New Content in the content industries:
 A crucial shift Industry Generatives

 • Content ‘Pre-Web’: Presenting -
   and selling - professionally
   produced Content
 • Content ‘Web-Native’:
   Presenting - and selling -
   Context, People, Relevance,
   Packaging, Timeliness - and
   all types of Content!
But beware...
The ‘new’ $$$


 Attention Kernels
Digital Breadcrumbs
  Mouse Exhaust
     Click-Trails
Attention
Transfer
Imagine this scenario:
 • Your location is tracked (if and when activated)
 • Your click-trails are shared (with some, sometimes)
 • Your opt-ins are 100% voluntary, intentional, deep, real
 • Your ratings, ‘likes’ and recommendations are available
 • Your network of peers is available at certain times


The new, old deal:

 Free content in return for your data,
  your attention, your engagement.
Great for us as Users fka Consumers




 Not so great for the creators?
But what are we actually paying for...?
Some answers to the ‘Free’ Challenge

It’s hard to ‘own’ a copy now but
   You can own the
 Context, the Meaning,
  the Relevance, the
    Experience, the
   Embodiment, the
       Timing...
A key opportunity for trusted parties
