Being Digital, Fast-forward to the Right Digital Strategy Fabio Mittelstaedt
Do my Company have the right Digital Strategy? Is it compelling enough to beat my competitors? Or to conquer the new digital customers from millenniums to baby boomers? Competing in a world shaped by digital technologies requires a fundamentally different approach to how strategies are developed and executed. 55% of business leaders admit that they do not yet have an enterprise-level digital strategy to support their corporate strategy. But there is a difference between developing some digital capabilities or being a digital lead in your industry. Digital disrupts business strategy. Business leaders must consider a new strategic approach.
1) Digital assistants like Alexa and Siri will become the new gatekeepers between brands and consumers as they control the information consumers receive.
2) For marketers, success will depend on learning how to market not just to consumers but to the machines to ensure brands are relevant and delivered in responses.
3) Only the most hyper-relevant brands that truly understand individual consumer needs and behaviors will be able to ensure their brand is the one the digital assistant selects and delivers to the consumer.
The year 2021 will signal a turning point in marketing. Traditional marketing methods have already left a sour taste in the mouths of businesses. The pandemic has already wiped out traditional marketing and caused a substantial shift in consumer behaviour.The marketing seismic shift has already begun, almost like the emergence of a new age.

Digital will witness yet another year of super-growth wherein new
digital products and solutions will be launched which will vie for larger eye-ball
share. Advertisers will look for performance over delivery and conversions over

western worl,there is no doubt that India will move past that
percentage even faster than US.
In this report, we shall also throw light on three new platforms which we believe
will change the dynamics of the industry for giants like Google, Amazon and
Facebook forever.
At the current pace of growth, digital cannot be ignored by both small and large
enterprises. It is no more a platform which can be taken for granted.
Organizations will have to go back to the drawing board, develop strategies and

2. In the contemporary global business
landscape, CEOs are strategically
channeling substantial investments into
generative AI, recognizing it as a pivotal
catalyst for their future competitiveness.
This commitment is not merely speculative;
it emerges as a top investment priority,
with CEOs foreseeing a tangible payoff
within the upcoming three to five years.
The surge in enthusiasm is fueled by
organizations actively seeking to unlock
the vast potential of AI, with generative
AI gaining prominence due to a surging
demand for tailored content and the
continual evolution of algorithmic
capabilities.
The resonance of this sentiment is
underscored by the insights gleaned
from the KPMG 2023 India CEO Outlook
report. Here, a noteworthy 66% of CEOs
in India explicitly assert that generative
AI constitutes a paramount investment
priority for their organizations, aligning
closely with the global figure of 70%. At
KPMG in India, a fundamental belief
takes root—that the transformative
potential of AI manifests most potently
when harmoniously intertwined with
human expertise and ingenuity.
Critical to success in this dynamic
environment is the agility of marketers
in adapting to the rapidly changing
landscape of consumer preferences.
The contemporary consumer is
influenced by a myriad of factors,
leading to swift shifts in tastes and
expectations. Marketers must respond
adeptly by deciphering behavioral
patterns, facilitating hyper-personalization,
refining the sales funnel, and elevating
lead quality. Concurrently, rationalizing
and optimizing Martech stacks is
imperative. This involves meticulous
documentation of both external and
internal use cases, aligning technology
with expected consumer experiences,
and streamlining redundant technologies
while retiring inactive ones.

The overarching objective is to
synchronize marketing efforts with
prevailing consumer trends, amplify
return on investment (ROI), and
minimize wastage.
Despite the transformative potential of
Martech, marketers often grapple with
the challenge of extracting optimal
value from their investments. This
challenge is compounded by insufficient
strategic planning and the ineffective
use of ROI metrics to gauge Martech
performance. Success in this landscape
hinges on the adoption of flexible,
iterative roadmaps closely aligned with
organizational goals. Identifying
high-impact solutions within budget
constraints and unlocking the latent
potential of underutilized Martech
investments becomes a defining factor
for success. Marketers are tasked with
continual innovation to stay ahead of
the competition.
As we navigate the marketing terrain of

35. In the dynamic landscape of marketing, some changes swiftly
evolve into major trends while others linger at a nascent stage,
leaving us uncertain about their potential as the next big thing.
Yet, we can't afford to overlook them, can we? Here's a quick
overview of the most promising shifts occurring in the market that
deserve your attention. It remains to be seen if they will evolve
into a trend of their own.
Apple continues to complicate email marketing
Many say email marketing is fading, but its continued success proves
otherwise—it's here to stay. Despite tech changes, new strategies keep it
alive. From countering Apple's MPP impact on opens to tackling spam with
enhanced security and embracing interactivity through AMP technology, it
has weathered it all. Apple's recent iOS 17 update introduced Link Tracking
Protection (LTP), stripping certain tracking details from shared URLs,
posing challenges for conversion tracking. However, it seems using UTM
parameters can help mitigate this impact. With Apple's updates, the
journey for email marketers remains an ongoing challenge.

TikTok favoring long-form video content.
During the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, TikTok launched a $1 billion
creator fund to support and reward short-form video creators whose
content went viral on its platform. However, as of December 16th, ’23,
TikTok has concluded its creator fund, now valued at $2 billion, and
introduced a “Creativity Program Beta” that shifts focus to longer-form
videos as a means of compensation. This strategic shift signals TikTok's
intention to enhance profitability by encouraging users to spend more
time on the platform, diverging from its original concept of pioneering
short-form video trends.
