How to Build and Adapt Your Brand to be Successful in the Digital Landscape
The digital landscape continues to evolve, and as a result, kids and teens’ media consumption is becoming increasingly fragmented. Kids and teens today are digital natives and are in control of what, where, and when they access digital content and communicate. Navigating the digital ecosystem successfully can be extremely difficult. Therefore, tailoring and adapting your brand to cater for the ever-changing attitudes, behaviours, and consumption patterns of kids, teens, parents, and families has never been more important in today’s digital landscape.
