3 MOBILE DRIVES GROWTH Mobile
is growing faster than any marketing channel ever

Brands will invest more in native mobile ads and DR-mobile ads, as they realize that mobile and social can drive bot- tom-of-the-funnel action as well. Mobile Drives Growth Mobile growth is fueling major acquisitions: - Twitter purchased Mopub - Facebook purchased WhatsApp and LiveRail, which it recently turned into a mobile ad network 4 Facebook Net Ad Revenue Worldwide (eMarketer, Dec 2014) 2013 2014 2015 2016 55% 45% 65% 35% 27% 73% 25% 75% Desktop Mobile (% of total)

Advertising in Emerging Mobile-Social Apps
Brands and the emerging class of mobile-social apps are starting to figure out how to serve ads that are natively mobile and fit the user experience. In its early stages, brands are even experimenting with subversive ways to leverage these platforms. Innovation is largely being led by Asian platforms (Line and WeChat). Discover allows Snapchat’s editorial partners to serve beautiful and intuitive native ads on the messaging platform Popular Asian chat app, Line, introduced Line@, a way for brands to chat 1-to-1 or 1-to-many with consumers Mobile Drives Growth Ex Machina ran a native marketing stunt on Tinder at SXSW by creating a profile for the film’s main character, an AI bot named Ava, who directed matches to the film’s website Facebook’s Messenger app platform allows companies to build apps that integrate directly (such as Giphy) and gives brands an opportunity to chat 1-to-1 with consumers 5

Rise of Deeplinking As a
consequence of the explosion of mobile, the communication between native mobile apps and from mobile web to mobile app needs to feel seamless. This will happen via intelligent deep linking and will eventually create an experience where mobile web and native mobile are indistinguishable. As apps continue to dominate the mobile web, the number of active apps continues to grow, and unbundled single-use mobile apps (e.g. Instagram and Whatsapp as standalone Facebook apps) continue to gain in popularity, app to app communication is key. Several companies have raised a lot of venture capital to tackle this challenge, including AppsFlyer, Branch Metric, and URX. 20% 80% 86% 14% 2013 2014 Apps Mobile Web Percentage of Time Spent (Flurry Analytics) 0k 250k 500k 750k 1,000k 1,250k 1,500k 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Total Active Apps by Store (appfigures) Apple Play Amazon Mobile Drives Growth 6

Tracking the Mobile Customer Journey
The rise of mobile browsing is presenting a whole new set of challenges for tracking the customer journey. However, we are already seeing big improvements in solving the cross-device challenge. Average Time Spent per Day by US Adult Users of Each Major Medium, 2010-2014 (hrs:mins) (eMarketer, September 2014) 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 4:29 4:37 4:44 4:39 4:45 0:21 1:38 1:59 2:22 2:43 3:04 3:14 3:03 2:49 2:38 0:40 1:03 1:35 2:03 2:13 1:43 1:42 1:39 1:38 1:36 1:08 1:05 1:00 0:55 0:47 TV Tablet Desktop/laptop Smartphone (nonvoice) Radio Print Cross-device advertising Social advertising Video advertising Getting better results from real-time bidding Mobile advertising Measurement and attribution 70% 41% 45% 55% 61% 64% Digital Advertising Topics that US Agency Media Proffessionals Would Like to Know More About in 2014 (% of respondents) (Conversant, April 2014) The transition to people-based targeting with user profiles/log-in data is a huge step forward. Services like Atlas allow marketers to track people’s activities and target them across devices (including apps). As time spent on desktops/laptops declines, time spent on mobile devices (tablets and smartphones) has been on the rise. Mobile Drives Growth 7

Now that high quality cameras
are in virtually everybody's pockets (smartphones), visual media is the preferred method of communication 8 A VISUAL AGE

Increasing Prevalance of Video Video
is the new photo—produced specifically for the respective platform. This year, there will be exponentially more original online video content (rather than repurposed) from brands. 3B 94%# of video views per day on Facebook, as of Jan 2015, compared to 2 billion video views per month in 2010 YOY increase in videos shared on Facebook in the US 1BNumber of Buzzfeed’s monthly video views, up from 60 million in 2013 A Visual Age 50%YOY increase for the last three years in video watch time on YouTube TV Newspaper Radio Search Other Digital Online Video Ads DisplayOther Non-Digital Mobile -2.8% -13.9% -16.8% 8.6% 6.0% 19.5% 2.9%6.7% 110.2% Annual Growth of Advertising Revenue by Format, US, 2013-2016 (BI Intelligence) 9

Visual Networks in the Spotlight
From a marketing opportunity perspective, Pinterest and Instagram will mature the most this year, with massive leaps in ad products and targeting capabilities. A Visual Age Lots of advertising momentum on Pinterest: frequently rolling out new ad products and announcing a buy button this year Instagram launched clickable ads, finally allowing brands to link back to their websites Following Facebook’s success with native video, Twitter has introduced native video in an effort to become a more visual network 10

A Shift Toward Visual Storytelling
This trend mirrors the success mobile apps have had by focusing on the story. One way this will manifest is through brand video series/mini TV shows. Will consumers tune in? Gap invested in an Instagram micro-series that takes advantage of the looped video to tell their story. The New Orleans Saints were a Snapchat early adopter, sending stories to followers with behind-the-scenes footage and sneak peaks. A Visual Age 11

Maturing Infrastructure for Visual Influencers
There’s been a notable rising class of Internet celebrities on Instagram, Vine, YouTube, etc. As the influencer infrastructure continues to mature (agencies, technology, tracking, etc.), there will be a saturation because it’s increasingly easy to gain influence. All of these visual platforms are competing to be the home for these rising influencers. PR firm Weber Shandwick says they dedicate 20% of their clients’ budgets to social influencer marketing 20% $30-$50 Million Twitter reportedly paid $30-$50 million to acquire Niche, an influencer talent agency A Visual Age iHeartRadio enlisted ultimate frisbee star and Vine influencer, Brodie Smith, to promote their summer pool party. Smith’s video (catching a frisbee on a jet ski) was looped over 6 million times. 6 million $5k-$30k Brands are paying Vine influencers anywhere from $5,000-$30,000 per video, according to Gary Vaynerchuk 12 Vine influencer, Meagan Cignoli’s videos have been looped over 120 million times and she has won a Cannes Cyber Lion for her work.

Successful marketers recognize that technology
is a means to a better, personalized customer experience, not an end in itself 13 TECHNOLOGY CREATES A MORE PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE

As marketing continues to converge
with technology, it will be imperative for CMOs to be seen as technology leaders. At the same time, customer experience is still as important as ever, leading to a CMO split between Chief Technology Officer and Chief Experience Officer. The Future CMO: Tech vs. Customer Experience “By 2017 the CMO will spend more on IT than the CIO” —Laura McLellan, VP of Research, Gartner ...but at the same time... Companies that focus on providing a superior and low effort experience across their customer journeys realized positive business results, including a 10-15% increase in revenue growth and a 20% increase in customer satisfaction. —McKinsey Customer Experience Survey ...and... “People are realizing that a key differentiator for companies is the user experience” —Carola Fellenz Thompson, CXO at Splunk Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience 14

Increasingly, personalization at scale is
possible and marketers will start to see more of this in everything from email marketing to personalized push notifications. For a long time, marketers have segmented their audience to serve messages that resonate—when marketers can feasibly create segments of one, marketing messages will be all the more powerful. Personalization Scales Companies are using machine learning technology and customer behavior data to provide 1-to-1 personalization for mobile apps. Personalized push notification drives 4x lift in retention for mobile apps (Forrester). Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience TripAdvisor personalizes emails based on what links users clicked on previous emails and what they did on-site. For example, someone who searched for Seattle is more likely to be interested in an email that suggests checking out Portland than Kansas City. 15

Brands have started getting good
at leveraging real-life events to drive mindshare in social in real-time. We're going to see more of this in non-social marketing channels, with email, display, and other campaigns triggered by and tied to real-time events. Continued Growth of Real-Time Marketing These NBA Store web banners changed based on the viewer’s market and the current weather, creating more powerful tailored experiences. For the Super Bowl, Coca Cola created multiple spots, enabling them to run the one that matched the game’s particular circumstance. Brands have wanted to do RTM beyond social for a while, but now, brands of all budgets are able to partake. Famously, Oreo’s 2013 Super Bowl social media command center created the primary real-time marketing example. Because of that, many other brands are continuing to invest in real-time marketing, knowing its potential success. Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience 16

This trend is largely being
led by social. Because social profiles are consumers’ identities in the digital age, there is a treasure trove of consumer data. Brands will use this social data to make ad experiences like web banners more sophisticated through behavioral targeting built on identity and interests. As an added benefit, sophisticated targeting eliminates wasteful spending on unintended audiences. Personalization via Better Targeting Unlike the incumbent cookie-based targeting that is browser-dependent and therefore limited to desktop measurement, Atlas’ people-based targeting goes a long way in unlocking cross-device targeting capabilities Targeting based on social behavioral data, such as a post, tweet, or pin—personalized for real social influencers and consumers Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience 17

As consumers continue to become
more mobile, brands are looking for novel ways to engage with customers on-the-go 18 THE RISE OF MARKETING HARDWARE

This year will mark the
first forays into marketing on wearables. The early attempts are going to be ugly, invasive and there will be consumer backlash, but the time it takes marketing to hit new platforms is shrinking. Marketing on Wearables With the release of the Apple Watch this spring, brands will be investing in ways to capitalize on wearable-specific apps now that they will likely be mass-market. Just like for mobile, the big question for brands is how do you create a novel marketing experience specifically designed for the wearable experience, rather than just a desktop ad on a smaller screen? Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience 19

Beacon and other physical marketing
hardware will see rapid adoption this year, with location-based promotions and improved in-store experience. This new digital engagement will help brands solve offline attribution. Beacons...Beacons Everywhere SXSW deployed 1,000 beacons to help attendees get the most out of their experience, such as finding meetups and other events of interest. Macy’s partnered with Shopkick to put beacons throughout their stores giving customers personalized offers based on past behavior and current location. 73 percent of shoppers say that the content and offers delivered by beacons as they roam a store increased their likelihood of making a purchase, according to Swirl Networks, a beacon marketing platform. In select stores, Urban Outfitters uses beacons to prompt customers to check-in and post content on social media to unlock exclusive offers and information. Technology Creates a More Personalized Experience 73% 20

Despite the growing importance of
technology in marketing, brands are finding success by remembering that at the core, it is still about people 21 THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE BRAND

With the prevalence of technology
in marketing, it’s increasingly important for brands to show their human side, via authenticity. Trust is at a premium and brands understand how important trust is when it comes to winning over customers for life. Wave of Authenticity There is a movement to make doing something good a part of a brand’s DNA—such as celebrating who people really are vs. societal “ideals” (Dove) or putting the environment before profits (Patagonia). The People Behind the Brand 22

Brands will continue to find
more creative ways to involve customers in marketing creation, including leveraging high quality user-generated content. Increasing Customer Involvement Much of GoPro’s marketing features UGC (customers using the product). It’s a great way to demonstrate social proof, as well as show off the product benefits. Betabrand takes customer involvement all the way into product development, allowing fans to submit potential products, which are then voted on before hitting production. The People Behind the Brand Lays’ “Do Us A Flavor” contest allows fans to submit new flavors for a chance to win one million dollars. Contests have received millions of fan submissions and whole new flavors. 23

Paying for attention is getting
increasingly difficult and expensive. Therefore, more of the marketing budget is going to creating customer experiences than ads in an attempt to earn attention and word of mouth. Experiences Are the New Ads Bud Light’s #UpForWhatever campaign is built on the strategy that experiences are the way to a consumer’s heart. More and more brands are investing in customer experiences to create a deep (and hopefully life-long) connection with their fans. Mophie (the battery charging phone case), rather than a standard booth, grabbed SXSWers attention by rescuing attendees who are low on battery with phone charging saint bernards. That experience is worth more than any 30-second ad. The People Behind the Brand 24

Successful brands cohesively put their
best foot forward across an ever-increasing assortment of consumer channels 25 HOLISTIC MARKETING

The end of digital marketing...and
the emergence of marketing in a digital world. So little in the world now is not digital, especially when it comes to marketing. So much so that it’s superfluous to even use the term digital. Also, a bit later, the end of “social marketing”. R.I.P. Digital Marketing “The era of digital marketing is over—P&G’s marketing team has stopped thinking of digital in terms of the the tools, the platforms, the apps, the QR codes, augmented reality, holograms or whatever is coming next or as a mysteries medium with its own set of metrics, but for what it is: a tool to build out brands by reaching people with fresh, creative, campaigns.” —Mark Pritchard, P&G Global Brand Building Officer Digital natives don’t separate their “digital lives” from their “non-digital lives”...it’s all just life. The same goes for marketing. As digital natives increasingly become the majority of consumers, brands will need to be where their consumers are and follow suit. Holistic Marketing 26

Look for brands to do
more marketing that leverages different media in creative and intelligent ways, such as TV campaigns that drive earned social sharing to meet the challenge of an ever-complex consumer journey. Cross-Platform Campaigns Brands need to think about the journey in a holistic way, and provide engaging touchpoints along the way. The recent technological advancements have allowed brands to use different types of media together (e.g. promoted tweets timed to TV spots) and leverage insights from one channel to optimize another. Holistic Marketing Quaker ran a promoted tweet campaign that targeted people who tweeted about cooking, food, entertainment, and family, and timed it to run at the same time as TV programs with their commercials, to extend their TV campaign’s reach. 27 To promote the third season of Game of Thrones, HBO sent personalized boxes with Westeros goodies and exclusive content to celebrities and social influencers to share on social before and during the show. With the rise of dual-screening, HBO is making GoT a cross-platform event.

With the growth of digital
media, the definition of native advertising is expanding. Consumers have gained power in the consumer-media relationship, and as a result, it’s increasingly important that advertisements integrate seamlessly with the consumer’s larger experience. Whether it’s in the form of sponsored content, built off of the existing user experience or something new entirely, native advertising will benefit brands, publishers, and consumers. This, however, does present one major challenge for publishers: the inherent ethical dilemma of blurring business and editorial. The Expansion of Native Advertising Refinery 29 Content One of many “new media” companies, Refinery 29 has been a pioneer in publisher native advertising. They’ve succeeded in large part by partnering with brands to co-create content that is top-tier and continue to do so on emerging platforms. Target’s #MoreMusic + Grammys No matter what you think of the execution (or Imagine Dragons), Target’s shot at native advertising on TV started a huge conversation about where native advertising can go. Holistic Marketing Netflix’s Orange is the New Black + NYT OITNB worked with the NYT to sponsor a piece written by a NYT editor about female incarceration. Rather than strictly promoting the show, the piece provided legitimate and valuable insight. 28

Social commerce will take a
huge leap forward this year, from the introduction of buy buttons on the major social networks to more direct-response social marketing, as brands realize that social can impact more than just the top and middle-of-the-funnel. Social Commerce Facebook and Twitter have been testing buy buttons for many months now, Pinterest announced that one is coming this year, Tumblr has a live buy button for limited partners = this is the year of the social buy button. Not only will this mean purchases directly from social channels, but it will also help prove to brands that social has the power to drive customers through the bottom of the funnel, resulting in more investment in direct-response social ads. Holistic Marketing 29

Brands that leverage earned and
paid in tandem are finding success 30 EARNED/PAID CONVERGENCE

Given the decline of organic
reach on the major social networks, brands are starting to understand the importance of earned social. Brands will also use paid media to jumpstart earned social campaigns, such as using TV ads to create awareness for UGC contests. Jumpstarting Earned Campaigns Made By You Converse’s campaign celebrates all the people who wear chucks. Seeded by print ads and social ads, Converse asked fans to share their own chucks on social. #AndTheCokeGoesTo Coke’s TV spot ends with a cliffhanger and asks fans to guess the end of the story on social media by using the hashtag. Eventually, Coke revealed the last scene on Facebook and Twitter. This expands on Coke’s larger “Share a Coke” campaign that, too, encourages sharing on social. Earned/Paid Convergence 31

Additionally, brands will then amplify
earned social (what their fans post) with the added capabilities (such as production quality, reach, and targeting opportunities) of paid social promotion. Paid Social Amplification This McDonald’s spot leverages a social media post that one of their fans’ shared. Brands are increasingly selecting fans to be a part of ad campaigns based on what they say on social media. Wheat Thins (boatload of Wheat Thins) and Heineken (Departure Roulette En Route), have done this in the past. As social continues to grow and become the primary form of communication, brands will continue to leverage what their fans share on social. Earned/Paid Convergence 32

Who owns the data owns
more of the digital world--brands, platforms, and publishers are figuring out who owns what 33 CONTROLLING CONTENT DISTRIBUTION

Because of the democratization of
distribution (social media), brands no longer need to rely on traditional media. Now, in order to succeed, brands must increasingly create and distribute their own content that resonates with their audience. Many brands are taking marketing and advertising in-house, combining the creative ability to create compelling content with their intimate knowledge of their consumers. Brands as Publishers The Thrillist Media Group and its new in-house agency, CoLab, create content for millennial males that double as marketing for its retail arm, JackThreads, and ad partners. Microsoft, in 2014, created Microsoft Stories, which serves as a publishing outlet for Microsoft’s content. An evolution of their policy content site, Pressing, GE’s Ideas Lab publishes and curates content with the aim of positioning the brand as a leader of innovation. Over the last few years, Apple has increasingly brought their creative in-house, giving the brand more control over their marketing. Controlling Content Distrubtion 34

Social networks will make an
effort to host all the content, rather than act as a distribution pipe. Brands will need to decide if they want to continue relying on social networks for traffic. Social Networks: Platforms vs. Publishers Content: Facebook is convincing publishers to publish right on Facebook (and share ad revenue) rather than link back to their sites; they want to host content for brands Video: Twitter and Facebook (and Line and Kik) have introduced native video platforms and embedding capabilities, making YouTube an unnecessary step News: Snapchat Discover brings the news to Snapchat, rather than making users go from Snapchat to the news site eCommerce: Buy buttons from the major social networks are expected to come later this year Controlling Content Distrubtion Buzzfeed’s BFF team makes content specifically to be published in social streams. CEO Jonah Peretti says it’s a huge reason why their video views have grown so quickly. On the other hand, Bleacher Report is actively diversifying its traffic channels, knowing that platforms can always turn off the traffic pipe. 35

36 B2B marketing tools are
maturing, allowing B2B marketers to leverage technology much like B2C marketers CONSUMERIZATION OF B2B MARKETING

With new technology that allows
for unprecedented targeting and scaling, B2B marketers are able use strategies that used to only make sense for B2C. B2B Adopts and Adapts B2C Strategies B2B marketers are starting to think about their content and audience in the same way as B2C marketers. They are beginning to effectively use programmatic ads, conversion tracking, A/B testing, and other technology to build consumer-like brand relationships at scale. B2C concepts—holistic, cross-channel, automated, full-funnel marketing—are now necessary to be successful in B2B. According to Forrester, 90% of the buying process now takes place before the prospect ever reaches out. B2B Matures (Bizo, Forrester) 37

Look for B2B to get
increasingly digital with more fully-integrated solutions. While LinkedIn is leading in offering end-to-end solutions, competitors will follow suit. In B2B, integrating marketing data and consumer marketing techniques will win. B2B Platform Integration LinkedIn’s acquisition of Bizo marked the first major consolidation within the B2B marketing industry. Their introduction of off-network ads is just the next step in scaling B2B marketing in a way B2C marketers have been doing it for years. B2B Matures 38

Marketing is transitioning from a
focus on big data to actionable data 39 USING COMPLEX DATA TO SIMPLIFY

The quantity of data is
certainly unprecedented. Famously, in 2013 the US Chamber of Commerce published a report that 90% of the world’s data was generated in the last two years. But now, it’s all about the quality and depth of the data—making sure it’s more insightful and actionable. Brands who know more about their actual customers, rather than heuristics, and act on the insights from that data will succeed. Deeper Data Using Complex Data to Simplify For example, Facebook first told brands that its metric of success was page likes because that meant greater reach. Then it was post likes and comments because that meant engagement. Now, it’s all about conversions— progressively deeper levels of consumer data. 15% 16% 8% 68% 33% 31% 27% 39% 58% 39% 32% 45% 92% 68% 69% 60% 75% 80% 2.6x 2x 5.6x 1.4x 2.1x 2.2x 2.2x 1.9x 1.4x Adjusts real-time offers based on context Tracks customer lifetime value Uses optimization tech across all channels Integrates inbound/outbound and online/offline Conducts root causal analysis of customer insights Applies advanced analytics to determine media spend Detects transaction struggles and takes action Tracks commitments from svc interactions Identifies/remedies execution gaps in brand promise Knows Customer Context and Integrates Accordingly Acts on Insights - Systematically Takes a Broader View of the Customer Experience Data driven marketers outperform their competition (The State of Marketing 2013, IBM’s Global Survey of Marketers) Others Leaders Diff. 40

Technology will be about making
data actionable, not necessarily collecting more. In addition to accessing deeper data, it also means a consolidation of data collection tools. Brands want a platform that can do it all from one place, which requires standardized metrics across digital channels, as well. Simplifying Consumer Data “Clients do not care about the size of our data; rather, they believe that a single targeted insight or idea can change the way they do business.” —Benjamin Spiegel, Managing Partner and VP-Innovation at Catalyst/GroupM 72%of marketers said their organization’s data is too fragmented (Tealium, “The Path to Unified Marketing”) Companies are working to consolidate for their customers: - Oracle acquired Datalogix and BlueKai - Salesforce acquired Rival IQ Using Complex Data to Simplify 41

Digital channels are simultaneously making
it harder and easier to measure the customer journey, giving rise to a renewed focus on metrics and attribution 42 A RENEWED FOCUS ON METRICS AND ATTRIBUTION

Focus on Conversions Because there
is greater pressure to prove marketing’s business value, there will be a move away from engagement metrics as the primary measure of social success. Instead, brands will measure success by the LTV of the customers it creates by focusing on conversions. “But the simple fact is, engagement is not a useful social marketing success metric...none has proven if — or how strongly — engagement correlates to business success metrics like loyalty or sales.” —Nate Elliott, Principal Analyst, Forrester No 38% Yes 62% Do you feel pressure from your CEO or Board to prove the value of marketing? (The CMO Survey/Duke University) Increasing Pressure Same Decreasing Pressure 65% 35% 0% Is this pressure increasing, decreasing, or about the same? (The CMO Survey/Duke University) A Renewed Focus on Metrics and Attribution 43

Attribution in the Spotlight Additionally,
as the pressure to prove the value of marketing increases, brands will need to focus on sophisticated attribution in order to make sense of how their marketing affects the increasingly complex customer journey. The biggest challenge right now is mobile, which is still primarily measured by impressions. As mobile social apps are now an integral part of the customer journey, brands will need to know how mobile social communications (“dark social”) leads to conversions. Chartbeat has been a leader in trying to figure out dark social attribution. In late 2014, they discovered that a number of highly used mobile apps added the app identity to the user agent setting, allowing them to properly attribute a percentage of their customers’ dark social. A Renewed Focus on Metrics and Attribution 0.00 0.25 0.50 Share of Dark Social Histogram of Dark Social Share by Domain (Chartbeat) PortionofDomainswiththisShareCustomers are driven to purchase from more channels than ever. 44

45 Conclusion Marketing is changing
faster than at any point in history. Technology solutions are creating new paradigms for brands to court, interact, and convert customers. Inspired by empathy and personalization, accelerated by data and visual platforms, and facilitated by mobile and social, marketers are more empowered now than ever. Successful marketers recognize that it is individual experience that matters most and work to imbue all their efforts with that ethos.
