The Marketing Book Podcast
Ryan Brown, Head of Brand Strategy at Ceros, joins the Content Experience Show Podcast to explore why today’s consumers crave experiential content.
The Shift Toward Experiential Content
As every marketer knows, today’s consumers have sky-high expectations for brand content. They demand relevance, authenticity, and personalization. They also value experiential content more than ever—and no, that doesn’t mean tacking a quiz on to the end of a blog post.
According to Ryan Brown, Head of Brand Strategy at Ceros, consumers crave content that takes them on a journey and sparks a meaningful connection. It takes more than a branded PDF to entice them, given how content-saturated most digital spaces have become.
What might experiential content look like for your brand? Ryan walks through the possibilities, offering insights into what kinds of experiences tend to succeed and ideas your brand can adapt to suit your unique audience.
