Understanding Information Consumption
Peer-to-peer online networks have changed the way people discover
information, evaluate and purchase products and services.
The decision to buy occurs around people, places and content of
interest. This PPC is known as the “Conversation Layer” and is
happening in both owned and un-owned properties.
Consumers joining the “Conversation Layer” represent risk reduction
behavior; understanding this is fundamental when designing a social and
content strategy.
