The Latest Marketing Trends

We all understand the value of marketing. It’s ESSENTIAL to make sure your brand is seen, heard, and chosen. But many businesses get left behind by not shifting with the latest solutions that achieve the best ROI for them.

Keeping an eye on the latest marketing trends can make your brand THE pioneer in your industry to connect with your customer with IMPACT.

Don’t just check out your competitors, are there company’s out there that align with your business’s values that are doing something different, which your brand can learn from?

The digital revolution has happened and it’s not going anywhere.

In fact Bridget Perry, CMO at Contentful, predicts:

“We’ve found a digital innovation gap between what customers demand and what brands are currently capable of delivering. That’s why digital leaders across industries tell us they plan to spend, on average, 25% more on digital in 2021. And 25% is just the average — some plan to spend significantly more. CMOs who aren’t scaling up their digital spending will soon be outpaced by competitors.”

Competitor Analysis

To elicit the best competitive response, your brand must keep an eye on your competitors and similar companies that your business aligns with. This can involve analysing their marketing campaigns or branding to see what they might be doing that you can learn from.

The easiest way to do this is to approach it from a customer angle. Experience what a customer of your competitor goes through when they make a purchase. By following their journey you’ll better understand not only what they do differently but how their approach may appeal to their customers.

It’s important to know what you’re up against so that you can do it BETTER.

SWOT Analysis

Regularly performing a SWOT analysis, an applying this to your marketing efforts is a great way to assess your business position and how you can get ahead. This is a great exercise to measure what your brand does well and where it can improve.

• Strengths – What are you doing well when it comes to marketing? Is it the content that you’re able to produce? Do you have a highly engaged audience?
• Weaknesses – Is time and capacity a problem? By using GDR we can become an extension of your marketing team.
• Opportunities – Where are the opportunities that exist in your marketing? For example, are there customers that may be up for authentically supporting and promoting your business?
• Threats – What is it that can get in the way that you have no control over?

A successful SWOT analysis can be the difference between an effective and ineffective competitive response. By looking from the outside in GDR can help you with this!
