Social Media Pros Forecast Range of 2018 Changes

B2B and B2C marketers planning to invest more in social media marketing in 2018 will want to take a look at the trends that social media experts are predicting for Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest marketing in the year ahead, as recently gathered up by Social Media Examiner. Among the more than 33 predictions featured, multiple social media pros stressed the growth and impact of video, as "even simple selfie videos filmed on cell phones are propelling businesses higher than video-less businesses," to quote one forecaster. B2B marketers will be pleased to know that LinkedIn advertising is expected to roll out video ads for business pages and geofilters for videos, now in test. Facebook, which remains the social media ad leader, is positioning to become a major player in online video. In 2017, Facebook debuted Facebook Watch for select creators (a TV-like option). In 2018, it is forecast that the program will expand to all people and pages on Facebook, and also that Facebook will likely roll out new features for video creators, perhaps including preferential Facebook news feed exposure for original native video, revenue-sharing deals, or even a dedicated video app. With the video boom, metrics will need to get more sophisticated across platforms. Meanwhile, Instagram is expected to continue surging after fast growth in 2017, with 15 million businesses using Instagram by July 2017 (up from 8 million businesses in March 2017), with 80% of Instagram accounts now following at least one business, and with global advertising set to reach $4 billion by 2017 year-end. One reason is that Instagram has been improving its tools for marketers, including InstaStories promoted within the “news feed,” the Story Highlights feature that allows pages to host static collections of previously disappearing story posts on profiles, "swipe up" calls-to-action, posts that click through to online stores, and soon the ability to follow hashtags. The bad news for marketers is that the popularity of social media will translate into rising ad costs in 2018, with pricing of Facebook and Instagram ads predicted to rise over the next 12 months. However, that cost trend should actually spur businesses hesitating to invest; marketers who commit to social media ads now will generate awareness, build audience (particularly via e-mail subscribers) and gain a competitive advantage in the increasingly crowded market. Businesses also are urged to hone ad effectiveness—for example using retargeting, AI and other techniques to ensure prospects see the most relevant messaging for their point in the customer journey. And, as costs rise and organic reach declines in effectiveness, the importance of ad metrics increases. Marketers will need to track the metrics of each ad or promoted post, combining a paid acquisition model with historical data and personalized content.

Survey: Hikes to 2018 Digital Marketing Spend

Digital marketers are already looking ahead to 2018 results, with most planning to increase digital spending according to a recent survey by Ascend2, which found that 93% of firms expect to boost digital marketing budgets in 2018. The survey, conducted in December 2017, tapped 217 marketing influencers, with 43% working for B2B firms, 35% for B2C firms, and 22% for hybrid firms. The combined 52% planning marginal increases and 41% planning significant boosts in 2018 digital marketing budgets dwarfed the 7% who intend to decrease digital spending. But the more interesting data involves where the marketers foresee the biggest bang for digital bucks in the year ahead. Respondents expected the most effective digital marketing tactics in 2018 to be social media marketing (18%), followed by content marketing (17%). Search engine optimization was seen as most effective by 15%, e-mail marketing was seen as leading by 13%, and paid search and social ads was chosen by only 11%. The lower ranking of e-mail and search ads was not due to execution barriers; both were rated as among the least difficult to implement. In contrast, surveyed marketers reported the greatest execution difficulties for data management (18% rated as most difficult) and marketing technology (also 18%). Content marketing and search engine optimization tied for second place in terms of implementation challenges, with both selected by 16%.

2017 Trends Offer Good News for Fundraisers

While 2017 is starting as a year of uncertainty, especially in politics, a recent CauseVox post by staff writer Tina Jepson spotlights 10 fundraising trends that offer good news and opportunities for nonprofit marketers in 2017. Donation forecasts are upbeat for individual, corporate and recurring giving, Jepson shares. Philanthropy Outlook 2016 & 2017 predicts that an increase in individual and household income will help to boost fundraising efforts for nonprofits, charities, and NGOs by as much as 3.8% in 2017. Plus, with Gross Domestic Product and business savings on the rise, total corporate giving is predicted to rise by 4.7% in 2017. And monthly giving, which accounts for 17% of online revenue, also will continue increasing per the 2016 M+R Benchmarks report. At the same time, donor retention rates are at the highest rate since 2008 at 45.9%, and nonprofits and charities clearly should make retention a marketing priority to capitalize on this powerful fundraising engine, Jepson notes. Another positive for fundraisers is the growth in donor data as digital interactions—websites, e-mail, social media and now the Internet of Things (IoT)—combine with traditional channels such as direct mail to generate a wealth of information about existing and potential donors. So a key goal for 2017 is to gather, analyze and use actionable data effectively. Meanwhile, on social and mobile marketing fronts, nonprofits face challenges as well as opportunities. Social media platforms, including Facebook, now are promoting organic content prioritizing audience friends and family over nonprofit messages so that effective social media marketing will need to rely more on purchased ads and targeting of key demographics. And any nonprofit that hasn't invested in mobile optimization of websites and e-mails is missing a key donation source: Mobile giving makes up 17% of all online giving now and is projected to rise further in 2017. For suggestions on maximizing the fundraising impact of each trend, see our complete post at http://www.acculistusa.com/positive-2017-fundraising-trends-create-opportunities/

Bigger Firms Lead Marketing Budget Growth Trend

Multiple marketing industry surveys are forecasting higher marketing spending in 2016, but Target Marketing magazine's latest survey reveals an interesting trend behind the upbeat outlook: The higher the company revenue, the more aggressive the push in marketing budget for this year. Overall, for business-to-business and business-to-consumer firms, the survey found that more marketers are increasing budgets this year (37% compared with 31% in 2015), and fewer are keeping spending flat (39% in 2016 compared with near 44% last year). But marketing enthusiasm definitely varies by company size. For companies with less than $1 million in revenue, the survey found 54.7% are actually holding budgets level with 2015 and just 24.5% are increasing spending. In contrast, for companies with revenues of more than $50 million, 50.4% of marketers say they are boosting marketing dollars over last year, and only 27.8% are keeping budgets even with 2015. Companies in the middle size range, with revenues of $1 million to $50 million, reflect the general budget outlook, with 41% increasing marketing outlay and 37.3% sticking with the same budget.

2016 Marketing Spend Seen Up for Most Channels

Marketers will be boosting spending for almost all marketing channels in 2016, according to the latest Winterberry Group forecast reported by Direct Marketing News magazine. Election-year politics and the Olympics are seen as key marketing drivers this year. Overall, data-driven channels, both direct and digital, are expected to grow by 6.4%, with the biggest bump for digital display (desktop and mobile), which is predicted to rise by 20.1%. Search and e-mail will also increase by 11.4% and 8.7%, respectively, per the Winterberry forecast. Still in the mix, direct mail will hold its own, boosted by electioneering, with an expected 0.4% rise. As a result, data spending to support direct mail, e-mail and display (lists, database management and hygiene, analytics) will see 1.1% growth. The only exceptions to the marketing growth trends are magazine and newspaper ads (forecast down 1.9% and 6 %, respectively), along with flat budgets expected for cinema, insert media and radio. Watch for programmatic ad spending to continue surging, grabbing a larger share of display budgets and driving up data spends, advise analysts. Plus, video, which exploded in 2015, is still on the upswing, per Winterberry.

2016 Customer-Centric Trends You Shouldn't Ignore

We've read many marketing trend predictions for 2016, but a recent Entrepreneur magazine article best emphasizes the new "customer-centric" focus of many shared predictions. Jay Arnold, vice president of marketing at FullContact, cites 10 marketing trends that he believes will make 2016 the "year of the customer." Here are just his first five forecasts. He foresees a proliferation of "marketing apps" this year, not just mobile apps but web apps, desktop apps and even TV apps, as marketers take advantage of the many free or low-cost apps that can now aid with tasks such as e-mail, social media, online ads, contact management, analytics and more. He also sees a shift to "insight-driven marketing," using analysis of the heaps of available data for more relevant targeting and messaging. Of course, this assumes a centralized database of multichannel customer info, so that is a priority task if not already under way. Content marketing got a lot of buzz last year, but Arnold now sees a greater shift from static content (such as social posts and white papers) to "interactive content," such as interactive assessments, calculators, training and games to keep people clicking and sharing useful information for sales. Everyone agrees that "personalization" will continue and grow as a proven response driver, but Arnold warns that 2016 will demand greater adaptation by channel and customer expectations. Consumers now expect relevant content tailored to them, but they will also be less tolerant of online and mobile advertising that is overly personal to the point of intrusive and creepy. Finally, Arnold predicts that 2016 will see a leap in "advocate marketing," as marketers realize that using customers to advocate for brands and generate referrals can be more effective than incentives and affiliate programs for referral generation--especially now that identifying influencers and advocates is easier than ever before via social and digital interactions.

Get Ready for 2016 Ad Rate Rises Across Channels

U.S. advertising rates are set to rise for almost all channels in 2016, according to a MarketingProfs report of forecasting by the American Association of Advertising Agencies and Havas Media. The ad cost bump is partly driven by higher ad demand from presidential elections and the Summer Olympics, per the forecast. So it's not surprising that the biggest jumps are forecast for television ad rates: a 3.8% increase for national broadcast TV, a 5.5% rise for cable TV and a whopping 13% leap for spot TV. The good news is that digital channels, where supply is expected to offset demand, are mostly set for very modest increases in average CPMs: mobile, online video and Internet/display advertising all up just 1%, although paid search rates is expected to show a 3.3% jump. For traditional print, average CPM increases are moderate, with a 2.5% climb for newspaper ad rates and a 3% bump in magazine rates. Network radio is the only channel forecast to drop in cost, down 1%. For a comparison of ad rate trends by channel from 2010 through 2016, see the MarketingProfs article: http://www.marketingprofs.com/charts/2016/29142/2016-advertising-rate-increases-forecast-for-nearly-all-channels

Content Tops Marketing Chiefs' Budget Plans

To keep up with leading marketers, plan to expand spending and refocus on content marketing, with an accent on social media. More than half of marketers not only plan to boost their budgets in the next few years, they will give content the biggest piece of the pie, according to a recent Advertising Age magazine report on a study by IBM and the CMO Club. The online survey of 100 chief marketing officers at b-to-b and b-to-c companies found that 57% plan to boost marketing budgets over the next two to three years. Content development will make up the largest portion of future marketing budgets (13.3%), followed by traditional advertising (11.5%), per the study. Other top areas of investment will be online advertising (11.1%), events (10.9%), website development (10.5%) and public relations (9.6%). Content leads marketing budgets explained Jay Henderson, director of strategy at IBM Commerce, to Ad Age because CMOs are focused on investing across the customer journey, and content requirements differ for the growing number of channels and devices at each stage, plus there is a demand for increased personalization at every stage. The survey divided the customer journey into six phases: discover (initial search), learn (research), try (testing and product comparisons), buy, use (requiring customer support) and advocate (recommending to others). The "discover" and "buy" phases currently receive the most marketer attention (20% and 21% of budget allocations, respectively), compared with the "learn" and "try" phases (16% each) and the "use" and "advocate" phases (13% and 14% respectively). But when it comes to prioritizing by channels, marketing attention is less evenly distributed, with social leading for all but the "buy" phase, when the website becomes the focus.

Online Crystal Ball Sees Video, Mobile & Price Hikes

While many digital marketers are focused on the upcoming holiday frenzy, at least one online marketing guru is already looking ahead to next year's challenges. A recent Forbes magazine post by Jayson DeMers, an online marketing consultant, suggests preparing for these seven top online marketing trends in 2016: 1) videos will increase their ad dominance now that Google, already involved via YouTube, is adding video ads to search results for 2016; 2) watch for an explosion of dedicated apps that boost reach beyond mobile-optimized web pages; 3) the crowning of mobile as a digital marketing power is assured now that mobile traffic overtook Google's desktop traffic and Google unveiled its mobile-favored search algorithm; 4) look for a new kind of online optimizing to take advantage of popular digital assistants like Siri; 5) the launch of more virtual reality devices next year portends the arrival of a new advertising medium; 6) emergence of more wearable smart devices, in the footsteps of Apple Watch, will help wearable technology gain traction as a marketing application; 7) and now the bad news--expect a continued rise in online ad prices. DeMers' crystal ball may not be on target for all 2016 trends. Online marketers probably have time to prepare for VR, digital assistants and wearable technology, but failing to plan for the impact of video, mobile and pricing is less wise.

Optimistic on Economy, CMOs See Budget Growth

If you're a marketer optimistic about the economy and planning to boost spending this year, you're like the CMOs of top U.S. companies. The CMO Survey found that chief marketing officers at Fortune 1000 and Forbes Top 200 companies are more optimistic about economic prospects so far this year than they've been since the start of recession in 2008, per a recent MarketingProfs report. The surveyed CMOs also expect marketing budgets to grow by 8.7% on average in 2015, the biggest increase since 2012. The digital marketing spend is expected to lead budget growth, forecast to rise by 14.7% this year, compared with an expected 1.1% drop in traditional advertising spend. Mobile marketing continues its charge, with mobile forecast to triple its share of marketing budgets from the current 3.2% to 9% in the next three years. Meanwhile, social media hovers at an average 10% of marketing budgets, even though the majority of surveyed marketers admit that they can't quantify results and have poor integration of social with overall marketing strategy. For details, see http://www.marketingprofs.com/charts/2015/27218/how-cmos-feel-about-the-year-ahead

It's Full Speed Ahead for Mobile Coupon Use

Coupons are forecast to be mobile marketing's rising stars this year and beyond. As pointed out in a recent Target Marketing Magazine blog post by mobile industry veteran Greg Hoy, mobile coupons are redeemed 10 times more often than print coupons and mobile coupon users, set to reach 53.2 million in 2014, are forecast to post double-digit growth rates annually through 2016 per Business Insider stats. In fact, eMarketer has predicted that by 2016, mobile coupon users will represent nearly 83% of all digital coupon users, notes Hoy. So it would be a smart business-to-consumer marketing strategy to either initiate a mobile coupon program, or beef up existing mobile coupon efforts. Make sure that tablets are front and center in any plan, urges Hoy, noting that, according to eMarketer 2014 estimates, 80.2% of mobile coupon users redeemed with a tablet, compared with 75.4% using a smartphone. Look for other digital channels allowing easy access to coupons via mobile, too, such as mobile apps, daily deal and group buying sites, e-mail and social networks. Where appropriate, test geo-targeting; retailers are reporting high redemption rates from geo-targeted SMS-delivered coupons sent to shoppers close to stores, Hoy notes. Finally, consider using mobile coupons to boost loyalty programs, suggests Hoy, citing findings of a 2014 Bond Brand Loyalty poll that a better loyalty program would lead 6 in 10 millennials to switch brands and two-thirds to change when and where they shop. Targeted mobile coupons may be just the reward to tip the loyalty scales for mobile-savvy millennials.

Embattled 2015 Ad Spending Still Seen Up by 5%

Welcome to 2015, marketers! Here's a bit of encouragement for those cautiously emerging from squeezed 2014 budgets: There's spending growth ahead, albeit tempered by continued financial pressures. The New York Times reports that senior ad agency executives are saying that, despite continued rough sailing for advertising budgets in 2015, they foresee steady growth in worldwide ad spending of 4.8% to 5% compared with 2014. The forecast came at the 42nd annual UBS Global Media and Communications Conference, with executives attributing improved spending to factors such as gains in digital ad sales, mobile ad spending, and improving economic conditions in markets like India and the United States. But ad executives certainly didn't paint a rosy scenario for those seeking marketing dollars from embattled corporate budgets. As Martin Sorrell, chief executive of WPP, the world's largest agency holding group in revenue, summed up to the NYT, "The biggest challenge we face as an industry is convincing clients to focus on the top line rather than reducing costs," and to get them to realize that ad spending is "an investment, not a cost."

Digital, Mobile Fuel Big 2014 Ad Spend Growth

Mobile advertising is rising with the force of a tidal wave, forecast to reach 67.8% of all U.S. digital ad spending by 2018, according to the latest report from eMarketer. In fact, digital ad growth (including mobile) already is the key factor in doubling total worldwide ad spending this year. Global media ad spending (for print, TV and radio, outdoor and digital) will increase 5.7% in 2014 alone, eMarketer projects, more than double the growth rate of 2.6% from a year ago. The U.S. market takes the lion's share of those ad dollars, with total U.S. ad spending set to surpass $180 billion this year, equal to nearly one-third of the worldwide total. Digital channels are the driving force of advertising growth for 2014 and beyond: eMarketer estimates that global digital ad spending will increase 16.7% this year, totaling $140.15 billion and surpassing 25% of all media ad spending for the first time. And within the digital category, mobile is the catalyst. Advertising on tablets and smartphones will increase 84.7% worldwide in 2014 to reach $32.71 billion this year, or nearly one-quarter of the digital advertising spend globally, eMarketer estimates.Those trends are forecast to continue until digital snags a 32.3% share of global paid ad spending by 2018, with mobile making up over 50% of those worldwide digital ad budgets. For more details of the report, see http://www.emarketer.com/Article/Global-Ad-Spending-Growth-Double-This-Year/1010997

Nonprofits See Year of Generous Giving Ahead

Seven out of 10 nonprofits expect donations to increase this year, and 13% expect their gains to be substantial—growing by at least 15%, according to a recently released survey of 538 charities by the Nonprofit Research Collaborative. As reported by the Chronicle of Philanthropy, charities in the survey said say they are optimistic because 2013 was stronger than any other year since the recession started. Indeed, Blackbaud's Charitable Giving Report for last year showed overall charitable giving grew 4.9% in 2013, while online giving grew 13.5%. The growing impact of online giving also was reflected in the Nonprofit Research Collaborative survey: Nonprofit respondents attributed much of last year’s growth in donations to special fundraising events and e-mail and online appeals, as well as big gifts from wealthy donors. Nonprofits that raised the most said they targeted a mix of donors for small, medium, and large gifts and diversified how they pursued donations by combining channels such as direct mail, social media, e-mail, and grant proposals. See the report on the Nonprofit Research Collaborative survey at https://philanthropy.com/article/70-of-Charities-Expect-Gains/145437/

Marketing Execs Are Upbeat---and Spending

Marketers are heading into the holidays full of cheer over their markets and marketing budgets. Per a quarterly report by Forbes Insights and ad agency Gyro, 88% of senior marketing executives plan to increase or maintain their spending. Specifically, 39% of execs surveyed say they plan to ramp up ad spend, and another 49% are sticking with existing budgets. In other words, only 12% plan to slash marketing funds. As reported by Adweek in late October, the survey found 45% of execs reporting that marketing conditions had improved compared to months ago, and 46% feeling as positive about the future as they are about current conditions. That optimism isn't generating a lot of risk-taking and innovation, however; 55% of the 875 survey participants say they are spending most of their time growing existing markets, and 58% are focused on growing current product lines and services. A smaller portion, 29%, say they intend to enter new markets, and only 16% aim to grow in new markets, according to the survey. Quoted by Adweek, Christoph Becker, Gyro's CEO and chief creative officer, described the news about marketing exec mood this way: "The good news is they feel energized and positive. There has never been a better time for a brand to find the most humanly relevant way to engage with the world than today." Well, AccuList USA certainly has some "humanly relevant" marketing suggestions for energetic marketing execs.

Online Gifts to Nonprofits Leap Upward

Online gifts to U.S. nonprofits are growing far faster than other types of donations, according to new studies reported by The Chronicle of Philanthropy. Donations rose 14% in 2012 from the prior year, to $2.1-billion, according to a study of 115,000 nonprofits whose giving totals were tracked by online-fundraising processors Blackbaud, Network for Good, and PayPal. Contributions to the nation’s biggest charities also grew 14%, to $785 million, according to The Chronicle's own survey of 149 large nonprofits. That vigorous growth can be contrasted with the anemic 1.5% post-inflation rise in 2012 contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations as reported by Giving USA. Despite the robust growth of online giving, online gifts still account for a small portion of most charitable fundraising, with a median share of just 2.1% of all donations from private sources, per The Chronicle's survey of large nonprofits. Still the survey also found many groups bullish about online's potential. Nearly three-quarters of the groups surveyed said their goal is to have online donations account for more than 10% of overall fundraising efforts in the next few years. About one in five expect Internet gifts to reach up to 20% of their overall donations by then. For more detail on online giving trends, see The Chronicle of Philanthropy story at http://philanthropy.com/article/The-Big-Boom-in-Online-Giving/139965/

For Millennial Donors, Give Them a Cause to Share

The latest nonprofit Millennial Impact Report, based on 2013 online research by Achieve and 14 partners, underscores the promise and challenge of appealing to millennials, those born between 1979 and 1994. How do nonprofits maximize millennial engagement? Per the report, charitable appeals need to tap millennial motives for involvement, with 79% of millennials saying it's about passion for the specific cause (not the institution), 56% citing opportunities for socializing and networking, and 45% seeking enhanced professional expertise. A hefty 72% were interested in joining a nonprofit young professional group, for example. To communicate their message to millennials, nonprofits also need to invest in mobile-friendly communications  (with 85% of millennial respondents owning a smartphone), social media (75% "like," retweet or share content on social media, especially if there are compelling photos), and updated websites catering to millennial usage (51% will go there to connect to social media, 46% will donate and another 46% will read a blog post). The good news is that 83% of millennial respondents reported making a financial gift to an organization, and 52% said they would be interested in monthly giving. So if nonprofits can get it right, they can cultivate a new generation of donors and volunteers. For the full report, go to http://www.themillennialimpact.com/2013research

2012 Report: 3 in 10 Online Display Ads Never Shown

Three out of 10 online display ads were never rendered in-view in 2012, according to comScore's "2013 U.S Digital Future in Focus" report, part of an annual study by the research firm. While around six trillion ad impressions were seen last year, the unseen ads led to "significant waste, weaker campaign performance and a glut of poor-performing inventory that imbalances the supply-and-demand equation and depresses CPMs," the report concludes. ComScore is hopeful of greater efficiency for 2013, forecasting that publishers will improve data use to cut down on frivolous display ads, and that marketers will improve their ad targeting and analytics of ad monetization. For more on the comScore report, which also looks at social media and mobile trends, see the ClickZ story at http://www.clickz.com/clickz/news/2244443/3-out-of-10-display-ads-are-never-seen-by-consumers

Marketers Plan to Spend More on Data This Year

With every marketing forum talking about "big data," it's no surprise that seven in 10 marketers plan to increase their data-related spending in 2013. That's according to a survey conducted by Infogroup Targeting Solutions and Yesmail Interactive at the DMA2012 Annual Conference and Forrester Research’s e-Business Forum. Of marketers questioned, 20% said they plan to greatly boost spending, and 48% plan to slightly increase data-related marketing expenditures in 2013. Only 3% said they will cut data-related dollars this year. Data analysis was cited as the top priority for improvement, supporting results from a recent Direct Marketing Association survey in which marketers said they saw analysis as big data's primary challenge. For more on the survey, see the report at http://www.marketingcharts.com/wp/topics/measurement-analytics/7-in-10-marketers-plan-increased-data-related-spending-26408/

Tablet Ad Performance Leads in Mobile, Search

Tablet ad campaigns are outperforming mobile norms on key brand metrics, according to a new eMarketer report, "Tablet Advertising: Volume and Engagement Levels Jump Up." Paid search ads targeting tablets are delivering better results than desktop search, too. Still don't see a need to target tablet users? Maybe these numbers will change your mind: By the end of 2012, eMarketer estimates the number of U.S. tablet users, which is defined as anyone who uses a tablet at least once a month, will reach nearly 70 million, double the 2011 tally and equal to roughly 30% of internet users . By 2015, over half of internet users will log onto the web via their tablet, eMarketer predicts. Read more about tablet advertising trends at http://www.emarketer.com//Article.aspx?R=1009423
