Brands are constantly asking themselves the same question; What makes our customers tick? They ask this question because every brand wants to deliver more of what people want and less of what they don’t.
And this is a question that has become harder to answer in today’s digital world. Consumers now have more choices than ever before, and their expectations can appear to change on a daily basis.
This freedom to choose extends not only to what they purchase but how they purchase, and through which means they choose to engage and interact with brands.
One of the main reasons that brands and marketers are finding it more complex to interpret customers’ expectations is because of the different behaviors that have developed as a result of the rise of smartphone use.
Smartphones have created a different kind of consumer and in real terms, this means that over a third of all online purchases are being conducted through a mobile device.
People are now turning to mobile more than any other source to help them get things done, make decisions or purchase products.
As a whole and as we know, our dependency on our smart mobiles has become unavoidable. Consumers are becoming more reliant on smartphones (mobile devices) as we are living in a time where the right now consumers are becoming more prominent.
So, it is safe to say that smartphone users are 50% more likely to purchase a brand’s product immediately compared to other devices.
Therefore, the behavior of a ‘mobile mindset’ consumer has significant implications for businesses, which means it’s time to start thinking about how different devices affect the consumer mindset, influence emotions, content consumption and purchasing decisions.
It’s becoming more and more important for businesses to tailor customer experiences to not only the individual but to the device, the individual is using.
By acknowledging that customer behavior is both highly variable and directly influenced by the device being used whether that be a laptop or desktop,
or a smartphone or tablet, brands can gain a deeper understanding of what their audience wants and can better tailor their digital experiences to match those needs.

Data has always been a hot topic, and big data is everywhere these days. Data is also considered as a key factor in the success of a brand or company.
Data is perhaps more valuable than gold, some even say that data is the mineral oil of the 21st century.
But collecting and storing data is no warranty for growth and profit. So, what makes data powerful?
Well, all of us generate data all the time. We communicate via digital channels such as WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter etc, we do online research, we take pictures with our smartphones and in doing so, we leave a data trail.

Games and marketing may sound strange, but they’re actually a ‘perfect match’.
As digital media technology continues to push the boundaries of innovations, culture, business and the attitude of consumers to brands, we more than ever before, need to be willing to step into new territories,
try fun and interesting ideas in order to increase our results and return on investments (ROI).
It’s amazing how fast things can evolve, as humans, it is easy to get stuck in the ruts of doing things, and then we have a shock like COVID-19 that can change everything.
One thing we need to know as we dive deeper into the new era is that there is so much of “the new normal” that is here to stay.
Like everything else, consumers are rapidly changing their habits, worldviews and attitudes. In the last few studies we have carried out, we have discovered changes in brand experiences and the good or bad/news is that these changes could be here to stay forever.
