We knew who to
trust in business
because we knew
where they lived
(and because they had
awesome moustaches)

We built our companies like this ...

We built marketing like this ...

WAIT!
Did the job you’re in exist when you were studying?

We became ...
Customer centric
Customer focused
Customer companies

But our organisations still look like:

but live in a digital worldWe have analogue skills

but live in a digital worldWe have analogue companies

but live in a digital worldWe have analogue processes

And that digital
world doesn’t
look, feel or
operate in the
same way.

It’s an alien world
powered by
geeks, data and
passion.
(Yes, it’s a new kind
of sexy)

Constellation Research
calls this the
“Consumerisation of IT”.
Big data, social, mobile,
cloud and unified
communications are
converging with the
“Connected Consumer”
at the centre.

Connected consumers
Gavin Heaton, “Rethinking the Marketing Funnel”, Constellation Research Inc, 2012

 Fragmentation
creates silos not
synergies
 The marketing funnel
assumes a passive
customer
 The next-gen
customer experience
is owned from the
outside in
 Next-gen customers
make purchases in
their own time frames
 Purchase decisions
occur before
consumers reach the
marketing funnel
 Trust is the currency
of digital marketing

Six principles we need to address

Marketing mix in transition
 Digital will account for 25% of marketing budgets in
2013
 And will reach 31.1% by 2017
 Mobile is expected to grow faster than digital overall
and will account for over 50% of digital spending by
2017

In my mind, disruption looks like ...
http://nasa.gov
We call it
DISRUPTION but it’s
really a new form of
GRAVITY with the
consumer at the
centre of
everything.

Accelerating change
As Angela Clark pointed out previously ...

Disruption is the New BAU
Within years of introduction, Apple’s iOS had almost entirely displaced the once
dominant Symbian OS from Nokia. Android now claims a majority foothold in the
mobile market.

Early digital adopters have accelerated their
dominance in one market and are using that
positioning to disrupt others.

This same pattern will play out repeatedly in the years ahead
as digital convergence creatively destroys one market on its
way to establishing a new one.
This is the pattern of DISRUPTION as USUAL.

We must embrace disruption as a precondition
for innovation and business success.

Participate with purpose

Participate with purpose
 Not just about being online (creating, sharing and
distributing various types of content)
 Beyond content to the realm of SERVICE
 Fulfil a role or purpose that aligns with the needs and
aspirations of Connected Consumers
 PURPOSE attracts

Be connected and connectable
 Consumers don’t care about your strategy, your
mobile platform or network
 Consumers care about access and availability – any
channel, any time in a consumable form
 If you are not connected and connectable then you are
NOT RELEVANT

Campaigns are DEAD
 Businesses are addicted to communicating through
campaigns
 They are time boxed and work from an inside-out point
of view
 Find flexible, micro approach to campaigns that map to
the buyer’s journey
 Work across digital and non-digital touchpoints
 Strategically plan comms by buyer journey

The future of you/work.

The only solution we have
is to
embrace
DISRUPTION as USUAL
