Trust in Traditional media increases

 

Traditional media, among which print media, remain the most trusted information source concludes the Edelman Trustbarometer 2012. Of the informed public aged 25-64, 32% trust traditional media (+10%), 26% put their trust in multiple online sources (+18%), 16% in corporate information (+23%) and 14% in social media (+75%). Trust in institutions, such as Governement, Businesses and NGO's declined, whereas trust in Media increased.

The study also confirms an old rule of thumb of the advertising industry about repetition; consumers need to read or hear a message at least three to five tmes before believing it. This finding underlines the necessity for brand owners and their agencies to include different channels in the media mix.

Riess: "For advertisers, newspapers are more time-efficient than other media".

At the World Newspaper Congress in Vienna,Christoph Riess presented the results of the annual study WAN-IFRA has been carrying out since 1988. Media-consumption patterns vary widely per country, confirming the culturally defined media landscape. Today, newspapers account for 80% of media-consumption time, but only 20% of advertising revenues. Internet consumption is increasing worldwide, and therefore newspaper readers also have more choices. Newspapers will have to do more to attract readers and to create loyalty. Daily print circulation declined by 2 percent in 2010, but the drop was largely compensated by the growth of digital newspaper readers. In fact, in terms of readership, newspapers reach 2.3 billion people every day, 20 percent more than the 1.9 billion that the Internet reaches worldwide.

SAP - Engaging readers with magazines

SAP is one of those companies that few people have heard of but few people could live without.
