Let’s Rewind
This year has already seen many
milestones in digital marketing.
The rise of live-streaming, Facebook passing 1B daily
active users, mobile overtaking desktop search volume,
Instagram introducing ads, Google rebranding,
the Apple Watch, the Internet of Things...
3
as we work in a fast
changing industry,
it’s key to understand which
trends drive future growth.
It’s also key to know where to
look for these trends.
4
A/B testing,
big data analysis,
mobile fundraising.
The Obama 2012 campaign is famous for
successfully leveraging digital technology earlier
than others in our industry.
5
What made the
Obama campaign
successful
in 2012?
According to Harper Reed,
CIO of the campaign:
Not building everything
from scratch, but learning
from best-in-class
practises of others.
In other words...
6
The Future Is Already
Here, It’s Just Not
Evenly Distributed.

7
So, here are 9 trends that successful
brands already put into practise to
move the needle today.
They will shape digital marketing in
2016
8
1 // HTML5 is the new standard
for digital creatives.
A waste of
money.
Flash ads don’t
autoplay in
Chrome.
9
CASE
Interactive creatives that work
on all browsers and devices.
10
2 // flexible planning is
new normal.
Can you launch
Instagram ads in 2015
if you didn’t budget
them 2014?
11
The COMPLEXITY of digital
communication is forcing
the SIMPLIFICATION of processes,
as well as a more FLUID STRATEGY
and AGILE EXECUTION.
-C.S. Harlinghausen, Starcom Mediavest
12
Planning is going to be
EXCTINCT.
- Jonathan Oliver, Microsoft
13
3 // AdBlocking for the
(mobile) masses.
14
AdBlockers topped
the iTunes charts on
the first weekend
...but also lost ground
again quickly one week
later.
15
Putting the 600’000 app installs of
the first week into perspective
(in one beautiful Excel chart)
16
Exclusive: Swiss Market Situation
AdWords Traffic Post-iOS9-Launch (KW38/39)

more impact than adblockers on iOS9
17
Winning our Industry’s

19
The Rise of the Smartphone Mobile Computer
20

21
CASE
Amazon Dash
is just one of many examples,
where the digital meets the real
world in a new way.
Mobile technology is the catalyst
of this trend - with simple “Click-
to-Collect” to Google’s “Store
Visit” metric being just two other
examples.
This unprecedented wave of
online/offline synergies will
move the boundaries of our
industry. And the way our teams
work.
22
5 // YouTube grows up.
(( I have no idea what this is, but it generated millions of views ))

for every website seeking reach.

directly into twitter’s timeline, leading to
more interactions and reach.
33
In the age of product feeds and shopping ads,
there should not a single click be wasted.
Long-Tail Keyword Product not Available
