Will the brands arrive? - Steem + McDonalds+ Coke - Steem Ads? Digital Evolution Rules?

SuperBowl Ads are being prepped right now. We saw the Bitcoin Bowl last year but will we see a Steem sponsored Colege Bowl this year? Probably not, but there's no doubt that this platform has popped up on the radar of marketing types.

Many of the agency models have evolved/adapted via the "Influencer" model where the whales of content production have followings where the reach of their messages can be more targeted. These large influencer networks like FullScreen, Maker, CAA Studios already have strategy sessions are already underway for Steemit. But how will this work? SteemPower?

SteemPower will evolve into what the corporation love:

** Monetization through brands.**

Snapchat is undergoing this transformation with STORIES.

Steemit platform will be a little different because Crypto Tokens are built into platform and this will raise the awareness around CHAINS. Brands will integrate chains into their products and it'll continue to tell stories around authenticity.

Will we continue to see the influencers on SteemIT backed by Brands? Will Brands establish direct messages on Steem? I hope so. Brands need to be transparent. They need to serve us.

I know many of you might be brand-phobic but would appreciate your comments.
