 Accordingly to Zubin Kutar below are 5 Digital trends you can’t ignore going into 2020

  • Influencer Marketing Rules

Influencer marketing will play a very critical role that will bridge the trust factor between brands and consumers as consumers no long trust brands and brand stories

  • The 3 A’s will play Goliath

Automation, Analytics and AI will be the core elements of making the digital shift to ensuring that brands and companies transform their legacy systems and processes to embrace and prepare for the next digital frontier.

Chatbots will get smarter in answering your questions as they learn how to deep mine data. 2 out of 3 users are already using some form of AI without even knowing they are interacting with it

  • More Personalisation v/s Broadcast

One on One marketing will make an impact on the buyer journey, brands will need to create personalised stories and experiences to sell their products. Brands relating to mass broadcast will see themselves perish faster.

  • Video Marketing

Video Marketing is one of the most important trend today in digital marketing, most likely it will continue to be the dominating one for the next 5 years at least.   Shorter videos will rule considering the short memory span we all have, the challenge for brand will be to convey their brand promise in less time.

Voice interaction is picking up

Thanks to Siri , Alexa and other smart systems , we now have a new breed of machines that marketers need to understand to be able to master them

The success for marketers to engage their customers over voice will depend on how well they master this machine
