A Month passed after Web Summit but hype stays high on the digital marketing world.
Were days of great networking, hearing the opinions of big decision makers and leaders on the biggest companies of the world, but it didn’t all ended on November 10th.
A lot was debated on the days after the big event and with further discussions we can came out with 4 things that certainly should be taken in consideration for the future.
Apps are being left behind
We already knew that Mobile Marketing was not a thing to be done on the sides. Mobile traffic is exceeding the desktop and marketers have been looking for ways to engage with their target audiences creating communities.
Apps have been seen has the best way to get a contact point with the clients, and enhance it’s experience with the brand, but our phones are full of apps.
The average American smartphone user downloads zero apps per month and that is spreading all over the world.
Bots are taking the stage.
Bots are automating the interactions online and replacing apps as the main point of contact with clientes.
Some players are already abandoning their mobile apps and creating bots to be the first line of an automated client support.
Soon messaging apps like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, WeChat & Skype will be the only apps standing on your mobile phone, side by side with preferred browser and your favorite social media app.
VR and AR will be the next Hot Thing
Marketing is all about making a good experience for the client, and the new way to do it is through Virtual Reality and augmented reality
