OMINI CHANNEL MARKETING
First of all, The term “omnichannel” may be a marketing buzzword, but it refers to a significant shift: marketers now need to provide a seamless experience, regardless of channel or device. Consumers can now engage with a company online or via mobile app, through a catalogue, or through social media. They can access products and services by calling a company on the phone, by using an app on their mobile smartphone, or with a tablet, a laptop, or a desktop computer. Each piece of the consumer’s experience should be consistent and complementary.
Omnichannel Marketing is undergoing rapid and major changes. We’re moving away from the mass, “push”-based marketing, and towards more personalized, 1:1 communication with consumers, through the many channels and on the many devices they use. The effectiveness and ROAS (return on ad spend) of print media, television ads, and batch and blast email campaigns are on the decline.
Unfortunately, when it comes to omnichannel, multi-device marketing, consumers today are way ahead of most marketers. the proliferation of devices has caused heavy fragmentation in consumer attention, and marketers no longer have a reliable reach channel for marketing. consumers consume media on multiple screens for different reasons throughout the day – has made it increasingly difficult for marketing to deliver the right message at the right time and at the right place
MOBILE FIRST
As technology begins to evolve over again, we will see different changes. with the rapid use of mobile which has changed e-commerce in a fundamental way, companies build platforms focusing on mobile, banks rely on their mobile app and this has disrupted the traditional notion of consumer moment of truth brand decision-making, wherein consumer have immediate access to product information at all times – as well as the ability to interact and comment on brands.
As mobile represents a large proportion of the potential Programmatic audience it is imperative that marketers are able to deliver a compelling experience that is worth a consumer’s attention.
