I was asked to make this presentation for a conference and, despite the topic being really tricky, I've tried to place some bets about the future for agencies and brands. Don't take this really seriously because the future can't be guessed and there is only one prediction that is 100% sure...
Double 11 is the world’s largest e-commerce shopping festival. Created in 2009 by Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba to celebrate “Singles’ Day” in China, it was soon adopted by all major Chinese e-commerce platforms to become the massive event it is today.

New Era. New Opportunities.
Devastating in so many ways, it cannot be denied that the pandemic has also been deeply transformative, accelerating new ways of living, working and thinking across almost every layer of our lives. Social is no exception.
At Punch, we’ve seen explosive growth in areas like intimate live social events, tutorials, workshops and shoppable content, as brands seek to add value to their customers’ lives and form deeper, longer-lasting connections with their followers.
Where the past decade has seen us confronting the more challenging aspects of social, things like data privacy, mental health and politics, 2021 has given us plenty of exciting signals that point towards a new era of social that starts right now – Web 3.0. With new opportunities coming at brands left, right and centre, we’re about to see a deep shift, with creators and innovators taking the reins and decentralising the power held by the big blue platforms since the mid-noughties.
In this report, we naturally discuss the emerging vision of the metaverse. The metaverse represents huge opportunity for brands; for some, early adoption might prove to be a key strategic investment. But the metaverse isn’t what excites us at the moment (sorry Zuck). With revolution in the air, we want to know what the underdogs are doing: the tech dreamers, the NFT kids, the creators. As creators become more and more valued for the central role they play in making social a fun place to be, we are already seeing examples of individuals breaking away and building their own niche communities. Whether they start to take large swathes of the larger platforms’ audiences with them remains to be seen. What can brands learn from their thinking – and how can we forge better and more creative partnerships? This is the big question of 2022.
Certain trends from last year, notably s-commerce and live video, are back for another year. The challenge with video is how to leverage new tools and techniques to create video content at scale in fresh, creative and authentic ways. We’re also starting to see audiences being actively rewarded for their loyalty and engagement, with highly-creative community managers and efficient and proactive customer service teams. Web 3.0 is unfolding; a bolder, fairer and more democratic digital playground where creativity and loyalty trump all. As user numbers grow and platforms and audiences mature further, budgets are likely to shift towards a combination of acquisition AND driving loyalty and retention.
“Community” is our key buzzword for 2022. Whether you’re getting in on the ground floor of branded NFT “moments”, exploring the hotter- and-hotter world of gaming, or investing more in cinematic video, success will depend on centring your community, acting thoughtfully and, as always, creating difference with mind blowing content and standout campaigns.
As a Marketing Strategist, these days, you cannot afford to lose out on the upcoming trends. To stay ahead of the competition, adopt and integrate influencer marketing in your overall marketing strategy.

A presentation I gave on March 17th to the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the Minnesota Interactive Marketing Association about the future of advertising in the digital age.
This is a presentation I gave September 19, 2008 to the Birmingham, AL Ad Fed membership. The event was promoted this way: "What is the future of advertising? Perhaps the better question today is, 'What is advertising?' In less than 10 years we’ve witnessed never-before-seen mutation in the marketing and advertising industries. Technology, consumer empowerment and media fragmentation are helping redefine the rules and methods of what defines an ad, how they’re made, who makes them and what kinds of impact we can expect to achieve. Tim Brunelle thinks this state of affairs is wonderful and hopes to convince you it is, too. His presentation mashes up management consulting, philosophy, copywriting, design, interaction, strategy, media negotiations and, most important—the primacy of ideas—to help you evolve your work in this new age."
This is a presentation done for Strategic Online PR and Media Relations Conference in Singapore from 23-25 Aug 2010, organised by TUN International.
It is presented by Andrew Chow (www.andrewchow.sg)
The Future of Advertising: How brands can embrace miraculous new technologies...Leo Burnett

This is a future where brands are ideally positioned to create the kinds of small and vital wonders that we soon won't imagine being able to live without.

Are You Listening To Your Customers? Engage Customers Like Never Before.SAP Asia Pacific
Social Media channels offer marketers a rich opportunity to really engage their customers like never before.
Sadly, customer engagement today has namely been oneway' with many marketers using Social Media as a Digital Megaphone to shout about their Brand and Products in the hope that someone will 'like' them and find their 'content' funny.
This presentation explores the challenges marketers face in effectively engaging todays digital natives, as well as the opportunities that Social Channels offer them in really being able to 'listen' to their customers and harness insights on what is influencing them so as to be able to craft content that is both contextual and relevant.
Technology innovation has enabled incredible changes in the human behavior. If we look back just 20 years, we recall huge changes that disrupted the status quo:
• In the mid 90’s, access to the internet changed the way people sought and consumed information (and marketers had to grapple with a whole new way of marketing online)
• In the early 2000’s, online social networks allowed millions of people to connect with each other (and marketers had to develop playbooks to best engage with the prospects and customers)
• In the late 2000’s, smartphones gave the public instant access to everything the internet offered, no matter where they are (and marketers had to ensure their content strategies were mobile-friendly)
Today, we’re in the beginning of another period of major change -- where a number of innovations and shifts (to AI, bot platforms, voice based search, and further proliferation of video content, coupled with mobile-first consumers coming of age) will have a big impact on how marketers, and businesses in general, get things done.

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it. To succeed in 2024 and beyond, you need to turn online reputation on its axis and think like an attacker.\

DEFEAT THE INDIFFERENCE BY MAKING THINGS PEOPLE WANT
INSTEAD OF MAKING PEOPLE WANT THINGS.
CONSUMERS WILL ONLY TOLERATE ADVERTISING AND ITS INVASION
OF PRIVACY WHEN IT IS ENTERTAINING OR USEFUL.

is now an important added value

LONGER ENOUGH. BRANDS WILL
NEED TO FIND THEIR PURPOSE AND
MAKE IT TRULY STRATEGIC
OVERCOME EXPECTATIONS, SURPRISE AND IDENTIFY PEOPLE WHO
BELIEVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE. THE GOODNESS STRATEGY IS A TREND
NOW, BUT WILL BE A NECESSITY TOMORROW. BUT BE CAREFUL, 2015

NOT ONLY ON THE MARKETING SIDE.

THIS IS ABOUT TRIAL AND ERROR.
THAT’S WHY AGENCIES WILL
EMBRACE THE ‘LEAN MODEL’.
‘A BRAND IDEA NEEDS TO BE LEAN AND AGILE. HERE THE LEAN MOVEMENT
COMES TO THE RESCUE. THIS MODEL HELPS QUICKLY AND INEXPENSIVELY
DEVELOP PRODUCTS/SERVICES PEOPLE WANT. INTRODUCE THE IDEA WITH THE
MINIMUM VIABLE THINKING AND WAIT FOR FEEDBACK FROM THE CLIENT’.
IMPROVE THE IDEA. INTRODUCE IT AGAIN. KEEP THE LOOP GOING ON.
THIS IS A PROCESS THAT IS ALREDY BEING USED IN SOME AGENCIES AND THAT
WILL BECOME MAINSTREAM DURING THE NEXT YEARS.

WEAPON FOR BRANDS THAT IS

CONSUMER DEMANDING OF INDIVIDUALIZED EXPERIENCES.

WAS CREATED ENTIRELY BY ONLINE ADVERTISING.’
IT IS NOT ABOUT THE CHOICE BETWEEN TRADITIONAL OR NEW MEDIA, IT IS
ABOUT THE COMBINATION ACCORDING TO YOUR OBJECTIVES:
TRADITIONAL MEDIA WILL CREATE DEMAND FOR YOUR BRAND AND
DIGITAL MEDIA WILL FULFILL THIS DEMAND.
ANY MEDIA WILL CHANGE THIS. PLEASE, STOP TRYING TO KILL TV.

THE MAIN ILLNESS FOR BRANDS
IN THE FUTURE WILL BE THE
DISCONNECTION FROM CULTURE
GREAT BRANDS ARE LARGELY A MANIFESTATION OF CULTURE.
BRANDS LIKE ABERCROMBIE & FITCH, LEVI’S OR ADIDAS ARE LOSING
RELEVANCE BECAUSE THEY SUFFERING ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT AND NO
LONGER CAPABLE OF CAPTURING PEOPLE’S INTEREST OR SURFING CULTURAL
WAVES. MORE THAN EVER, A BRAND WILL NEED A SOCIAL AND CULTURAL
IMPACT AND NOT ONLY BE RELEVANT FOR A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE.
CULTURE EXPERTS WILL BE MORE NECESSARY THAN EVER.
Culture is changing faster than ever. Consumers can be part of diverse
groups and ethnics. Brands need cultural experts to make brands relevant.

NOBODY KNOWS THE DAMN FUTURE
32. GO BACK TO THE BASICS: THE POWER OF CREATIVITY WILL
ALWAYS REMAIN AS THE KEY FACTOR OF SUCCESS
SOCIAL NETWORKS, APPS, INTERACTIVE TECHNOLOGY... ALL ARE THE EXPRESSIONS OF A BASIC HUMAN NECESSITY: COMMUNICATION.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE BEGINNING OF ADVERTISING, BUT THE ONLY WAY TO BE IMPORTANT AND RELEVANT TO PEOPLE’S
LIFE IS TO DO REMARKABLE WORK. YOUR BRAND DOESN’T NEED MORE FANS, ENGAGEMENT OR RELATIONS. YOUR BRAND NEEDS MORE GOOD IDEAS.

AND YOU’LL WRITE THE FUTURE INSTEAD OF PREDICT IT
