In The Beginning In the minds of consumers, brand are living, breathing entities, particularly on social media. Thus, the boundaries between brand and marketing are constantly being blurred, creating a behavioural minefield.
This is especially so in our increasingly always-on hyper-connected, 24/7 world. Digital disruption has fundamentally transformed the way we live, work and play. Inevitably this has revolutionised the way people buy and thus how we do business in this new millennium.
Traditional mass advertising is no longer as effective as it once was in reaching an audience. The advertising techniques that once proved so effective in the past simply aren't as potent for advertisers today. As marketing continues to evolve, methods that work today, probably won’t work as effectively in five years’ time!
