Why brands reach further with great editorial content
Brand publishing is not a new idea. Before you can say, ‘And now for a word from our sponsors…’, we could cite countless examples of companies using non-traditional marketing to get you to buy into what they’re selling.
Read moreStraight-up editorial content on branded sites, however, is still a relatively new concept. Editorial that doesn’t scream ‘Buy our stuff’ but envelops you into the company’s ethos is an increasingly effective way of targeting audiences and enhancing brand identity.
Take RedBull.com for example. With a commitment to brand publishing that outstrips pretty much every other brand out there, the multi-channel site produces high-quality, high-volume creative content with only occasional nods to energy drink sales.
This commitment to storytelling has seen RedBull.com grow in size and popularity in recent years, while contributing to the brand’s current status as the world’s best-selling energy drink.
The platform’s success is very much down to the talent they work with in creating innovative and entertaining editorial content, both internally and externally with consultant production partners.
