1. AI Everything

Hey ChatGPT – in about 50 words, why don’t you tell us how AI will change digital marketing.

“AI is set to revolutionize digital marketing by enabling hyper-personalization of content and ads, automating customer interactions through chatbots and virtual assistants, optimizing marketing campaigns in real-time based on data analytics, and providing deeper insights into consumer behavior. This will lead to more efficient and effective marketing strategies that are closely aligned with user preferences and behaviors.”


2. New New Media

It’s weird to say this, but we’re living in a post-Facebook world. There’s new outlets for social media and digital marketing, and the trends are always shifting. As we barrel along into the future, we have to keep our eyes open for the next big platform.


3. Influencers

5. Up-to-the-Minute Updates

Your audience will be hard to hook, but you can grab their attention with constant updates and marketing that’s driven by live data. Keeping a finger on the pulse of your ads and search rankings will become more important than ever.

Sure, it’s nice to just keep scrolling through a feed, but interactive content can be a nice little break. Quizzes, questionnaires, apps, and even your humble landing page can be optimized for interactivity. You want to connect with your customers – why not let them connect with you?


7. Voice Search Optimization

As more people rely on virtual assistants (Siri, Alexa, Cortana, or any other device that’s probably listening to you right now), your digital marketing needs to be optimized for voice search.


8. Mobile-First Marketing

When was the last time you put your phone down so you could look something up on your computer instead? With more people on mobile, mobile-first just makes sense.
