A Roadmap to the Future of Marketing

A Roadmap to the Future of Marketing


Nailed it. That’s what I thought as soon as I saw the image below from MediaPlant’s report sponsored by Microsoft, Dollars, Bits, and Atoms: A Roadmap to the Future of Marketing. It’s a well-thought out and practical look at how technology is evolving to enable more effective marketing strategies. One diagram stood out as we’ve been assisting companies develop their online marketing strategies so I’ve included it below.
Marketing is in a state of transition, driven by changes in technology, demographics, and society. This map visualizes trends identified by industry leaders and experts, showing relationships between technologies and marketing tactics, and where the industry is headed.
