“The speed of digital marketing is so great that we always have to make decisions in real time.” Karl Villanueva, Hello, Fresh.
The digital advertising industry continues to rapidly evolve. As industry players, we have to constantly keep up with the latest trends before they break out to stay relevant. Throughout the many changes out there, a key point in our industry now is that the user is in complete control and demands more transparency. Industry players now have to not only get their message across and talk at their audience, but rather talk to their audience in the most efficient and personable way possible for acceptance. Simultaneously, the steady rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) signifies the importance of data rather than the concept of “robots taking over the world,” and that a seeming consensus among digital advertising experts is that we as key players should collaborate with AI rather than react against it.
We are rapidly growing into a fully-digitalized world. Digitization: the transformation of secondary (print ads) to tertiary media (online ads). This mundane and normalized process inevitably helps influence an individual’s everyday choice of living digitally; now, digitization is more or less a social norm. Based on a 2018 D21 Digital Index study, 19% of Germany’s population was completely offline in 2017, however, in 2018, it decreased by 3%. Initially offline, today’s online advertising dominates digital devices, particularly through the Internet. Thus, the digitization of advertising also becomes a social domain of digitalization. Today, digital advertising exceeds its physical ad properties that now enable advertisers to better approach their audience. Brands can now sell a tailored message to target their audience. This leaves the opportunity to communicate more relevantly with a potentially-higher user acceptance if approached the right way.
Does your audience trust your brand? Online marketers face the challenge of achieving a brand-safe image, whether they are aware of the concept or not. What is brand safety, and why is it important in digital advertising? Brand safety is the consideration of brands regarding online users’ trust. The placement of a brand’s campaign within inappropriate content or vice versa conceive this concept, particularly via association. We know the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” however, we all cannot deny that immediate first impression trumps all.
