Given the need for speed and agility, it has become of utmost importance for marketers to revise their strategies to competitively differentiate their brand and engage customers across the multichannel mix.

Extreme Creativity

The innovative American Multinational Conglomerate ‘General Electric’ used extreme creativity in the form of famous Sci-Fi films while promoting their ’Brilliant Machines’ campaign.

New Technology
The ever-advancing technology can be used to vitalize user experiences at every turn. HDFC Bank played this card by using technology in an exemplary manner that won them the ‘Gartner CRM Excellence’ award, and reduced the customer complaints by a whopping 30%!
Hence, the bottom line is ‘Technology’ can be a friend in times of great marketing stagnation.

Putting yourself in the customer’s shoes and embracing their journey to the purchase of your brand..
Understanding the path to purchase lets you make it uncomplicated for people to do business with you.
The online travel site, Triplt offered customers with one year anniversaries, a trail version for it’s premium services which resulted in 900 percent increase in adoption because it integrated the buying journey into the fully-rounded customer experience.

Location based marketing
The knack of using location based marketing and targeting customers with messages based on not just who they are, but where they’re from, opens up a great deal of marketing opportunities.
An innovative example, 'Livedeal.com' a geo-based deal engine that connects customers via a mobile marketing platform. The service lets 8,000 restos publish over 10, 000 deals “real time” and “Instant offers” to nearby customers, who download the app for use. This resulted in customers warming up to the benefits of sharing their location info to bag in more discounts.

We live in exciting times. Innovation is marketing’s best friend. We hope you’ll think about how these marketing trends can transform the quality, relevance and ROI of your marketing.
