The explosion of digital marketing has disrupted traditional media formats and whilst it has increased our ability to target, it has made it increasingly hard to generate cut through. When and where consumers receive and digest media has also changed dramatically with an increasing number of touch points all the way along the path to purchase. Shopping channels and missions are also evolving rapidly with e-Commerce, and convenience expanding exponentially offering new opportunities but also even more complexity. Navigating these choppy, ever changing waters is challenging, but exciting, as it is forcing us to learn new approaches and skills to drive both consumer and shopper penetration and loyalty. Effective planning and investment choices are critical to winning in this new media landscape. Increasingly the effective use of data, and subsequent targeting, is key to building a winning strategy.
