Marketing is Evolving

The Evolution of Marketing
• Up to 1980ies: Marketing the past
• 1980-1990ies: Marketing the present
• 2000+: Marketing the future

Marketing the future:
• Products/services are never finished
• Products/services never stand alone
2000ies: What People Buy

• Promise that the brand will continue to deliver
  now and in the future
• Trust = the belief that a brand is capable of
  delivering now and in the future

Editor's Notes

  • #31 Social Media touches every facet of the business. Just a 30 minute screenshot showing you how encompassing this is. You need to enable the entire company not just a select few.Only 1.4% of companies have their entire organization engaged. 54% block social media at the office
  • #33 Much of a companies future success will depend on their social media strategy and execution because it’s on the frontline with the client/customer/partner = lifeblood of the business
