Innovation inhibited by current advertising eco system Source: Annet Aris The advertising ecosystem What has to happen for widespread ad dollar shifts Consumer Advertiser Media company Agency Advertising sales managers caught in “prisoner dilemma” with regard to standard prices, try to shift to value added offerings but have problems with in house coordination and getting through to advertisers Marketing manager needs to justify spend to board: relies on well known and accepted measuements (risk aversion).

27. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ALL START DOING THIS? Source: Annet Aris Current strategies traditional media companies... Results so far Future perspective Adaptation of traditional media offerings (easier to consume, less costly) Launch of tabloid format, reality shows, new magazine titles, trade paperbacks.. New revenue sources Up to 50% of revenues from sale of other products (music, books, add-on‘s) Scale growth (vertical, horizontal, international) Cost reduction programs….. 20-30 percent cost savings realized in the past years Industry consolidation, vertical integration, growth in EE Build up of digital offerings (Re) launch of webactivities, acquisition of digital new entrants Loss of quality and distinctiveness? Marketsaturation, brand franchise overstretched? Further cost savings require fundamental process changes Integration issues distracting from innovation? Market inefficiencies? Too many copy cats? Acquisition price explosion?

Low quality offerings Loss of consumer/ advertiser franchise No funds to invest in new offer- ings Multi media “ brand reinforcing” offerings Deep consumer access Funds to further build franchise
