What is a 'value exchange' in content creation and why does it matter for sponsorships?
Answered in: Sponsor Interviews & Expert Sessions — Series BundleThe Answer
Every time you communicate with your audience, there should be a value exchange - you need to either entertain them or give some sort of value back. If you're not doing either, what's the point of the relationship with your users? For sponsor content, this means not just holding up a product obviously as an ad, but integrating it authentically. For example, actually showing yourself changing oil in your race vehicle is more authentic than just holding up an oil bottle. Consumers know you want them to buy, so give them the messaging in a way that's entertaining and informative rather than smashing them over the head with it.
