THE INTERNET
While internet access reaches more of the globe, it will continue to consume individuals’
personal and professional time. With this accessibility comes the convenience of accessing all
types of content–online TV, news and music–anytime, anywhere.
The growing dominance of this medium allows advertisers new opportunities to reach consumers
while gaining measureable metrics and performance.

DEVICES
With the expansion of mobile, new opportunities are presenting themselves here. 2013 will be
the beginning of the mobile wallet, with mobile not only being an environment for ones’ identity
and social circles but also their financial spending.
Consumers now have the ability to access anything through their fingertips at anytime.
Advertisers must keep on-top of the capabilities here for they will continue to evolve as
functionality matures on this platform.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media will continue to expand as its mobile focus accelerates. With this we will see social media
incorporated into even more areas of consumers’ lives. It is ever present as people document the micro-
moments of their lives and a constant companion, whether out with friends, hanging on the couch or
shopping.
With its evolving presence in daily life, social media demands equal attention from both marketers and
advertisers.

WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
A HYPER CONNECTED WORLD:
We have reached the age where all touch-points are aligning. As access continues to
evolve for consumers, so will the transparency that lives here. In today’s connected
world, the line that once divided these platforms has begun to blur. Consumers can
engage anywhere with your brand and touch points (Website, online ads or social
media)—whether on the couch, in the aisle or on the street.

MARKETING IN A CONVERGED WORLD
Marketers and advertisers need to look beyond the platforms themselves and take a holistic approach to
their communications planning. It is important to understand how, when and where consumers are
interacting with your brand digitally to fully engage with consumers as they discover and purchase.
