Revenue always follows attention.
PWC: – Global Entertainment & Media Outlook – five-year forecast – global internet advertising revenue to rise at 9.1% CAGR – by 2026, it will total $723.6 billion.
Now entertainment, media and advertising are integrating at speed – the race for attention and engagement is on.
NEW OPPORTUNITIES – Gary V (continued from Friday) – consumers, buyers, and clients are spending more time in digital environments, and the opportunity is to turn this into revenue.
A) ATTENTION is the most valuable asset today in the world.
- Vee says – the demand for attention will become difficult and expensive – it will never be as cheap as today.
- Leaders need to look at this through an investment mindset – attention cost is massively underpriced compared to what it will cost to acquire the same attention in the future.
- As the demand and supply of advertisers and consumers changes on social media platforms, the price of attention they provide will create new opportunities for lower cost and higher returns – you will regret not spending more.
B) ENGAGING CONTENT – producing more content that is not engaging is damaging your revenue and brand.
- Instead of producing just one piece of content for each channel, take an omnichannel approach. Vayner Media (and Accelerate) regularly turns one long-form piece of content (normally video) into 30+ individual pieces of micro-content and stories that 100Xs the amount of attention he captures for his clients.
- Using this content leverage strategy, he has created a system that consistently produces 80–100 engaging pieces of digital content daily – capturing enormous attention so that clients improve influence and sell more.
C) OPTIMISE EVERY STEP – Every sentence for every social media post must be tested and improved for maximum audience attention, engagement and SEO – before posting – without fail.
Gary Vee’s – other tips for businesses are
- Ensure your business has a value ladder approach. Vayner Media’s approach is
- Wantrepreneurs or current entrepreneurs (books, events, and consumer products like shoes)
- Small to medium-sized businesses (SMB consulting services at $10k a pop with an exclusive community called VaynorMentors.
