Key Takeaways

  • The Dojo, a new podcast series by Thinkplus, aims to keep marketing managers, directors and business owners updated with the latest marketing news, trends and strategies that they can apply to their business.
  • There is a new trend in the marketing landscape involving alternative ways that people search for products and services besides Google. Some companies like Perplexity AI are looking to compete directly with Google by offering a new search method.
  • The use of humour in advertising is becoming increasingly popular again, prompting the Cannes Lions Advertising Award show to add a humour category. The trend suggests that audiences appreciate and respond to brands that use humour effectively in their advertising.
  • Despite the rise of humour in advertising, it’s crucial for brands to remember that the goal of advertising is to promote and sell a product rather than merely to entertain. Humour should be used strategically and contextually, and it may not be suitable for all brands or products.
  • Businesses should not entirely delegate observation of marketing trends to their marketing team; as these trends and changes in AI technologies may have broader implications, it’s advisable that the business owner or leader also keeps abreast with these changing trends and technologies.
