They’re more active in the decisions they make, who they listen to, and who they choose to buy from.
User generated content beats traditional advertising. It is increasingly difficult for companies to connect with potential clients using traditional channels.
There will always be a place for traditional marketing, but the best marketing departments should and pay attention to UGC.
