Print media is more than the newspaper. It is more than the magazine stand you peruse through at the grocery store. It is even more than the billboard you glanced at on the freeway on your way into work this morning. Print media is the chance to make an everlasting impression on your employees and your customers. Learn here how you can use print media to your advantage.
Print Media is Everywhere
If someone were to ask you what your opinion was of print media, what would you say? You would probably say it’s on the decline – regardless of the fact that the tissue box on your desk and calendar on your wall are staring back at you, as if trying to get you to see them. These items are in fact print media even though we don’t associate them – or company-branded pens, employee manuals, even business cards – with print media.
Contrary to popular belief, print is not dead and it definitely isn’t dying. So why does everyone believe it’s on the plank ready to be pushed off and devoured by sharks?
It has to do with psychology. Surprise, surprise! We as people rely on our environments to make sense of the world around us. The things we see on a continual basis help us to determine what our future is going to look like. If something is not under our nose as much as it once was, our brains translate that as if it is diminishing from our environment.
When you think of print media what comes to mind? I’d be confident to guess that books, magazines and newspapers flashed into your mind. The increasing digital world has pushed some of these items into virtual space, by way of e-books and online subscriptions. Since these select items associated with print media are slowly becoming digital media, people assume that print is dying.
In reality, however, print is alive more than ever. Look around you! What do you see?
