The Landscape of Advertising is changing at a fast pace. It is so very essential to understand these changing parameters and adapt accordingly to the changing marketing landscape.
7. The Emerging Difference Between Search and
Social Media Marketing
• Search is a tactic for when you want to gain engagement from someone who
already knows they do a specific thing
• Social media on the other hand is a tactic that can align a brand with an intent that
doesn’t currently exist or by peer recommendation of a consumer’s experience of a
product, service or brand.
Digital is only going to get bigger
• Almost all agencies and client-sides are talking about growing spend on
digital marketing projects
• A bigger slice of a shrinking marketing budget
• A budget in its own right that’s getting bigger
Behaviour Drives Use
• Use of digital is increasing because customers are changing the way they
behave
• Digital isn't about fashion it’s about communicating to consumers in a way that
coincides with their new behaviour
9. Unpaid Advertising is Growing
• Consumers experience a brand best from someone else
• The growth in personal referrals
• Consumers are increasingly trusting messages from contacts rather
than direct from brands
• Valuable but risky
• Brand Hijack
We need to do our homework into how
customers behave
• Market research remains important
• But “listening” via networks is vital
• Reading blogs (tiny influencers)
• Creating blogs where customers can comment
• Our most critical customer could be our biggest fan
10. The Future of Such Marketing
• Every year will remain the year of mobile
• Tablets will replace laptops for casual interaction
• Ease of Access will make the Difference
• More Emphasis on the KISS strategy
