Unternehmen und Organisationen machen heute genau dass, was Verleger (bisher) auch tun. Sie publizieren und verbreiten Inhalte und bieten Marketing-Services an. Egal ob Kundenmagazine, Website, Direct Marketing, Newsletter, ePapers, Lead Generation, SEM/SEO, Blogs, Webinare, Videocasts, Events, Social Media Pages und Networks, Market Intelligence, usw.
Der Unterschied liegt im Ansatz der Monetarisierung. Die Verlage finanzieren sich über bezahlte und/oder gesponserte Inhalte sowie die Mediabudgets der Werbetreibenden und die Unternehmen und Organisationen über den Verkauf von Produkten und Dienstleistungen sowie dem Marketing- und Verkaufsförderungsbudget des Unternehmens.
Unternehmen und Organisationen brauchen dafür eigenes und fremdes Know-how und eigene oder fremde Ressourcen. Da könnten die Verlage und insbesondere B2B Verlage, gebeutelt vom Nullwachstum oder/und Rückgang der Werbeeinnahmen als Dienstleister ihre Expertise und Dienste anbieten, tun dies aber nur sehr zögerlich oder mit der Maßgabe, dass bisherige Angebote sakrosankt sind und in keinem Fall einer Gefahr ausgesetzt werden dürfen.
Diesen Raum (von Lücke kann man da nur noch verniedlichend sprechen) haben verlagsfremde Anbieter längst genutzt und was viele Verlage ohne Rücksicht auf Kosten und Sinn versuchen zusammenzuhalten, ist längst dilutet und die Budgets anderweitig verteilt.
Und nun? Wie gehts, wenn sich die (B2B) Verlage weiter standhaft verweigern oder zu vernünftigen Angeboten gezwungen werden müssen?

B2B Media companies grapple with growing pains of custom media
but don't care about their 'friends', 'clients' and 'financier' needs and wants.
According to the online survey (taken at the Custom Media Day), respondents are spending roughly a quarter of their budgets on custom content. And B2B media companies in parting, swing their hats ... ... B2B publishers don't care
While 79% of respondents are using social media tools to market custom content, just 25% said those tools are effective. Additionally, 51% use blogs, but only 25% said that they are effective; 75% use article postings, but only 40% said that they are effective ... B2B publishers don't care
The biggest challenges to custom media players are producing “engaging” content (36%) and producing enough content (21%), the survey found ... B2B publishers don't care

- Industry Magazine/Website - 12,7%
- Go to my Agency - 10,7%

After thought:
So communication and advertising can address their message directly to their publics and invite a conversation without third party and publishers. We see that authors / content creator have now many ways to publish paid & unpaid to the public without a middle man publishers and (I hope we understand that) readers / user also have many ways to cut out the traditional middle man and conversate directly with the creators ... so we either can either joint this conversation with something valuable or to be in a snit mood and standing outside such conversations and opportunities.

Reminder: VSS's 2005 Communications Industry Forecast
As the link on our August 2005 Blog entry 'VSS 19th Annual Communications Industry Forecast 2005 Out' does not work anymore, we use Folio: article (12-Dec-2005) to remind (and update the link) on some highlights from the VSS 2005 Communications Industry Forecast
- The average person will consume 10 hours of media a day by 2009, with home video, consumer Internet and wireless media predicted to see the largest hourly gains.
- Digital-based media forecast to drive average annual consumer spending on media over the 1,000 USD threshold in 2009 for the first time
- E-media will continue to be the fastest growing sub segment of the b-to-b media market, with projected growth of 26,5 percent in 2005.
- Custom publishing spending is expected to grow at double-digit rates annually due to interest in 'establishing solid business relationships' and a transition from short newsletters to four-color magazines.
- Internet advertising, driven by keyword search ads and rich media, is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 24 percent over the next five years.
- Communications industry expected to top a trillion dollars by 2009, becoming the fourth largest and fastest growing sector of the U.S. economy.
