/cont/ - Content Strategy

Are we drowning? Or swimming better than ever?
In this era of constant connectivity - where every second feels like an eternity for content to go viral - we're faced with a dilemma. Is our world overloaded, or are marketers just getting more creative?
Let's take ''Instagram. The platform has become so saturated that it's hard not feeling bombarded by ads and sponsored posts between your friends' updates.
But here comes the hot take : maybe we're using content wrong if every piece feels like a shouting match. Instead of pushing, could marketers be doing more to engage authentically?
Take ''Patagonia for example - instead of just selling clothes ️ they're telling stories about sustainability and adventure that resonate deeply with their audience.
Now compare them against countless brands spamming users' feeds without pause ⬇. The former feels like a breath, the latter an asthma attack on social media lungs
So what's your take? Are we drowning in content or are marketers finally finding ways to swim through it?
