Purpose

Branded Entertainment is a new and innovative style of advertising which perfectly blends marketing and entertainment. Since new studies show a growing ambivalence towards commercials, clever marketers have discovered how to showcase brands in television, film, music, talent and technology so that consumers pay attention. This integrated approach, which ties in product placement with invigorating sponsorships, creates a loyalty and an emotional connection to a brand never before seen.

InsideBrandedEntertainment.com was created so that you can stay on top of this innovative, exciting and evolving approach to branding, and profit from Branded Entertainment’s market success. Updated throughout the day, InsideBrandedEntertainment.com combines current business-insider information from VNU Business Media’s leading publications, including leading titles like Hollywood Reporter, Adweek, Brandweek, and Billboard, with useful directories data about companies and brands. In addition, we feature news and articles about Branded Entertainment from other web sites.
