4. No, advertising is not dead...
... But there has been a shift!
Advertisers must start being honest and authentic
Advertising must be less intrusive, interruptive - more
subtle
To win consumers attention, advertisers must connect
with consumers in their day-to-day lives
Advertisers must listen to customers, create and deliver
new (meaningful) experiences and value-rich
conversations on or off our corporate domain.
5. Word-of-mouth often under-valued
A consumer mentions specific brands over 90 times per week
90% of consumers online trust recommendations from people
they know
70% trust opinions of unknown users.
67% of shoppers spend more online after recommendations from
online community of friends
Consumer recommendations are among the most credible
advertising
Facebook, blogs, Twitter and customer
reviews are considered the most effective
tactics for mobilizing consumers to talk up
products online.

17. #8 The 80/20 rule is flipping
OLD: Spend 80 percent of your budget on media
OLD: Spend 20 percent on creative
A move from larger, general-interest audiences to
smaller, special-interest audiences. From Paid media to
a combination of Paid, Owned & Earned. From place
and leave to optimise for performance.
NEW: Spend 80 percent on strategy & creative?
NEW: Spend 20 percent of your budget on media?
18. #9 Be flexible test, optimise, refine
