The Future of Content Marketing: Exponential Progress and the Shift to Engagement
•
8 likes•1,035 views
The document summarizes key trends in content and marketing over the next 5 years. It notes that everything will be connected, intelligent, in real-time and personalized. Interfaces will provide unprecedented access to content through new forms of interaction beyond typing like talking and thinking. There will be an explosion in content but determining what's relevant will be challenging. Storytelling, visual content and automated translation will rise. Traditional advertising of interrupting and manipulating people will decline as privacy and permission become priorities. Data and artificial intelligence will be used to provide helpful, engaging and additive experiences for people rather than just targeting and selling to them. Brands will need to focus on building trust, expertise and participating with people in order to be relevant and get attention
