The Future of Print Media

 

The world is shifting to online media and transforming into a digital place as the technology is tightening its grip. With this, it is hard to imagine there was a time when all this was new and the print media was the most prominent form of advertisement and news. But with the increasing digital media do print media/advertising platforms such as billboards, magazines or newspaper ads still, have a chance?

The answer is – yes, due to a very basic reason – authenticity. Don’t get us wrong, we are not saying that digital forums are not authentic but there is so much on the digital forums that sometimes you are confused about what all to believe and which news is fake.

Let us put it in this way, would you believe in a huge billboard ad or would trust a WhatsApp forward?

Having said all the above both print and digital media have their pros and cons. In this blog let us focus on print media and advertising and what the upcoming years have got for it.

The Beginning Of Print Era

Printing has come into existence thousands of years ago. Though modern printing started in the 1300s when the printing press was invented. Printing was used to inscribe on various objects. It was also used in the publication of books, in making movie ads, street play posters, advertisements, and so on. Printing has been everything for the advertisers from baby boomer’s generation to the current generation X and even for the generations that were present before the baby boomers.

The Current

Millenials and Generation Zs are not averse to the power of print. The current print media includes newspapers and weeklies, magazines, brochures, pamphlets, billboards, posters and much more.

The Ongoing and The Upcoming Scenes for the Print Media

Print is very essential wherever there is a physical presence of the customer.

Be it handing visiting cards when you meet a new prospect or adorning your office or clinic with all the valuable information about the services your company provides in neatly printed boards or paintings, print helps in conveying the main voice like nothing else.

Print Ads are valuable

With more and more people installing ad blockers and turning a blind eye to digital pop up ads, print ads in the magazines, newspapers and many more mediums are finding more weight (quite literally as well).

The power of Billboards

Nobody can deny the charm and lure of a well-made and a well-placed Outdoor Branding. Even the huge brands such as Apple, MacDonalds, KFC, Lenovo, and many more utilize billboards to establish a connection with the audience in the right way and in the right place.

Print Supports Digital

Print Media acts as a great support system to your digital campaigns and thus increasing the output of the marketing ideas you implement.

Summary

So well as you can see the print media is definitely not in its dying phase, it also could be due to its traditional nature. Even though we accept changes and the world moves ahead we still, love to read the newspaper with the morning tea or open those freshly glossed magazine pages to read at leisure.

Space branding strategies: Branding details at events that makes the difference.

 

A consistent and creative digital branding strategy always works for the Brand and never fails to communicate the vision and mission of the venture, but is that all? Here is a take by ‘Bright Pixel’ on the importance and difference it makes in the marketing and branding by designing a branding space.

Space Branding – a wonderful blend!

Space branding is a simple yet perfect blend of Branding, Graphic design, Interior design, at the same time, marketing and advertising. It offers a combination of disciplines for which business strategy, human behavior analysis, or consumer behavior psychology knowledge is needed.

Space branding aims to improve the commercialization experience of businesses’ products or services. As the famous psychologist described, the design of a space or the environment can heavily influence employees and clients; space branding never fails to create a corporate image of your Brand with the powerful assistance of interior designing.

Well-branded corporate space: an excellent asset for your marketing strategy

Space branding is an essential tool in communicating your brand ‘Ethos’ and ‘Identity’ through well-planned and well-curated designed elements at the exhibition location. Space branding helps to convey what your business/ brand is about.

– It develops a Relationship between the Brand and the customer.
Through well-curated spaces, brands can give customers and all visitors an understanding of their core values, vision, and mission. More importantly, they develop a good relationship with customers by increasing the remembrance value of the Brand.

– Proudly showcase your logo, brand colours & values.
Graphics placed strategically on the walls, pillars, and at critical locations showcases the Company logo and the key messages. If your Brand has multiple locations or different departments within the exhibition, a continuing space branding theme with matching elements can connect the various locations to the single Brand.

-Space branding helps inform, includes, and educates the audience.
Space branding helps make the Brand livelier. Modern-day exhibitions focus on attractive designs and satisfying spectators’ experiences. Space branding helps to make it more animated as it communicates the values and culture of the Brand.

Reasons to brand your event space

These are the few most important reasons to include space branding in your marketing and advertising strategy.

– Customer loyalty.
Arguably, the primary importance of office branding is giving customers a reason to adapt and accept brand values and ideas. Once they are hooked on the beliefs and values of the Brand, they can be turned into loyal customers.

– Brand Connect
Your customers are your best brand ambassadors. If they feel a deep connection with your Brand, they will promote it and your business, almost without thinking about it. Allow your customers to discuss the Brand by displaying quotes, proposed policies, and strategically placed digital screens.

– Brand Identity
Another significant advantage of office branding is that it gives you multiple opportunities to reinforce your brand identity. Every time a consumer walks in, he sees your brand logo, values, and other promotional content, which imprints your Brand on his mind.

Bringing it all together

To conclude, alongside the digital presence, offline presence in exhibitions and similar events is equally essential for the look and feel of your Brand. Space branding is a blending of a place with interaction and connection to the community, allowing one to move beyond designing only for function. Such marketing moves will help you attract more audience at the exhibitions, cut through your competition, and positively impact your brand’s remembrance value.
