Course content

The course is dedicated to the creation of content with the goal of strategic usage of target group-appropriate content in marketing. The functionalization and application of aesthetics in the area of marketing is analyzed as a foundation and critically reflected against the background of necessary diversification processes for marketing strategies (keyword “brand identity”) within the course of the “economics of attention” and the particularities of “prosumentation” (according to Töffler’s term “prosumer”) in the digital age.
