Marketing executives have a good grasp on the new AdTech and MarTech trends that are expected to shape 2023 as 2022 draws to a close. The strategies and techniques used to achieve marketing success change with time, even if many marketing fundamentals remain constant year after year. Modern tech channels that are essential to business marketing operations have replaced the platforms that were once widely used for marketing.
With the development of AI technology, it is anticipated that the advertising sector will experience a big change in the coming year. By streamlining and automating some chores associated with content creation, tech-driven solutions are poised to fundamentally alter the way creative agencies operate. These AI-powered systems enable companies to produce high-quality materials more quickly by using machine learning algorithms to create original writing, design assets, and even video content. These technologies can help with activities like copywriting and concept generation, freeing up time for more strategic and high-level work, even if they are not meant to replace human creatives.
Amit Dhawan, partner and CEO of Art-E, spoke about the increase in MarTech activities and said, “Spending in the advertising sector has steadily increased over the past 12 months, a trend that has been accelerated by the attention given to important sporting events like the FIFA and ICC T20 World Cups. MarTech, the nexus of marketing and technology, has likewise experienced a large increase in activity and has generated sizable buzz.”
Direct-to-consumer (D2C) brands have grown, as have the associated advertising budgets, he added.
“These D2C brands frequently forego conventional retail distribution channels in favour of selling their goods directly to customers via their own websites or online marketplaces. Since it gives brands more control over their pricing, distribution, and customer experience, this approach has grown in popularity in recent years, he added.
Modern technologies have demonstrated their ability to help marketing professionals with a wide range of issues and difficulties. It has significantly altered how organisations balance human connection, automation, and engagement with scalability goals.
“In general, the advertising sector is always changing as brands look for fresh approaches to connect with and interact with their target customers. The upcoming year is certain to bring interesting advancements and new chances for marketers due to the integration of AI technology and the growing popularity of D2C businesses “said he.
Modern marketing professionals do not trust teams or tools that are pre-made to carry out marketing initiatives. The Covid-19 pandemic has hastened marketing’s digitalization, which has led to an explosive growth in the adoption of MarTech technologies.
To ensure the organization’s success, several adjustments have been made to the organisational structure of teams and other marketing initiatives.
More than 75% of marketers claim that their marketing technology initiatives have a direct impact on sales, according to recent survey results.
Furthermore, more prosperous firms allocate more than 25% of their marketing budget to the use of MarTech.
Shashank Sharma, Co-Founder & CEO of Expedify, commented on the digitization of marketing, saying, “We have witnessed how ‘Digital’ has become a significant channel not only for client acquisition and engagement but also for conversion and retention. The integration of marketing and technology, or MarTech, is expected to experience rapid expansion as India’s digital economy grows stronger.”
MarTech is thought to be playing a significantly bigger role in data analytics and integration, as well as automating procedures to boost marketing productivity.
