by | Jun 6, 2018 | Public Relations

New research from NetLine Corporation reveals an important disparity between B2B content consumption trends of the “active audience” and the “in-demand audience.”

The active audience is comprised of users who are actively seeking content, but did not meet the discernible needs of marketers trying to reach distinct audience/buyer segments. When compared to in-demand audience activity, marketers can learn more about content resonance with audiences by job level, company size or by industry.

Much like last year’s data, it’s evident that marketers continue to target C-level and managers—these two job levels comprise the top in-demand audience by job level. However, this year’s report delves into the profiles of the other job levels who are dominating the active audience data.

Comprising nearly 30 percent of the active audience, these professionals have the ability to influence decision makers. The report goes on to dissect this and other job level profiles and delivers actionable takeaways to optimize campaigns.
