2011 英语一 Text 3|营销不再只靠花钱买广告
主旨
营销成功的老规矩是”一分钱一分货”,如今不再如此:除了传统付费媒体,企业还能用”赢得媒体”(热心消费者自发推荐)和”自有媒体”(给注册用户发邮件)→ 有时一家的自有媒体会成为另一家的付费媒体,即”出售媒体”:流量大到别家愿意在上面投放内容,这一趋势尚在起步 → 同样的技术变革也带来风险:热心消费者会更快、更醒目、更具破坏性地发声,形成与赢得媒体相反的”被劫持媒体”,品牌可能被消费者、利益相关方或维权者”绑架” → 他们会号召抵制产品,威胁企业声誉;企业的回应往往不够快也不够周到,丰田在召回危机中借快速、精心策划的社交媒体回应减轻了损害。
