A R I Z O N A - Electric Touch (Midnight Kids Remix)

Report of the week: HootSuite’s Global Digital Overview 2020

Top 3 takeaways from the report we discuss:

1.What customer engagement is going to look like in 2020 and beyond: leveraging employees as a crucial link in CX

2. Will marketers find their ‘purpose’ with video in 2020? 90% of internet users said watching videos was their number one activity online- how will marketers’ approach video content to drive business outcomes – especially with a growing list of martech vendors that enable video production in pennies and minutes?

3. Thinking about ‘what is the best investment in voice in our context’? One of the biggest surprises with Voice is that it’s turning out to have more applications at the back of the house than in customer-facing applications. Worth tracking for B2B especially.

4. Finally- the increasing scope of social media marketing- again a lot of confusion over the purpose (Engagement? Brand building? Customer service? Leads? Social commerce?) and the business outcomes one can expect from investments in social media marketing, even as expectations grow.
