Yesterday I opined (yes, a Bill O’Riellyism) that we shouldn’t get all caught up in worrying about the definition of advertising. In my head, lets keep our lives simple and just believe that when marketers pay for our attention they are “advertising.”
I sited content marketing as not being a brand new “advertising” idea (think advertorials) and today found this infographic on the history of content marketing on the Content Marketing Institute website. So, how old is content marketing… Try 1885.
