Embracing The New
Looking at Federated Media’s history, you’ll see their bold embrace of change and risk predates the Internet era. In the Fifties, founder John F. Dille took over The Elkhart Truth newspaper, which included owning two radio stations. Federated Media owned the first cable provider, St. Joseph Valley Cable, by the Sixties. By the Nineties, they had expanded beyond Indiana to include radio stations in Ohio, Michigan, and Oklahoma.
In the late Nineties, they divested from out-of-state radio holdings to hone their core Indiana audiences and customers. And they focused much of the next decade on expanding their footprint and broadcast offerings throughout northern Indiana. But seeing the massive potential of digital marketing early, they also launched Federated Digital Solutions (first as Federated Interactive), a digital marketing agency, which, combined with their radio holdings, allows them to offer businesses incredibly effective marketing opportunities.
Over time, they’ve worked to establish and expand their voice in the Northern Indiana market, leveraging emerging technologies and capitalizing on new trends to reach their listening audiences and serve clients. This blueprint has been key to their success for seventy years and will continue to fuel their success in the decades to come.
Understanding the Power of Digital
Not only do their radio stations leverage podcasts, and a variety of digital technologies and tactics, to reach their listeners. But their organizational understanding of digital is continuously enriched by the marketing work they do on behalf of clients daily.
When they launched Federated Digital Solutions more than ten years ago, they had a solid understanding of both the digital landscape at the time and some sense of its potential. But from the growth of local search to the mass adoption of social media, the evolution of digital marketing in the preceding period has outpaced everyone’s forecasts. And to keep pace, they’ve been able to leverage their digital knowledge in the broadcast industry space and explore and learn from what works well with their clients.
As the broadcast and marketing arenas have continued to evolve, they’ve continued to ground their organizational culture in experimentation and testing to identify what works and discard what doesn’t. They leverage their broadcast platform to take risks and share their insights with their clients. And they embrace the risk of digital technologies because they know that when they find an approach that works, the rewards can be astronomical.
