Digital Marketing in 2030: Adapting to a Shifting Landscape

Mon., June 24, noon ET / 9am PT

Oracle Digital Experience Agency | Issue 122

How far in advance is enough?

In our Holiday Marketing Quarterly reports, we’re always saying that our goal is to be thinking at least 3 months out with our clients so they can avoid stalling out. But the emphasis is on at least. After all, the point of our HMQ reports is to be planning year-round for your most important season (the holidays or otherwise). But many issues deserve even farther-out planning. For instance, what’s your 2-year plan for using AI in your marketing program? Your 3-year plan for omnichannel orchestration? If you have a CDP, what’s your 2-year plan for leveraging it for personalization, segmentation, automation, and advanced analytics? We’ll be exploring the tectonic shifts to hit marketing in the years ahead in our upcoming Digital Marketing in 2030 webinar. I hope you’ll join us as we talk about long-term strategic planning.

In this issue:

  • Pressure builds for US privacy law
  • ‘Automatic Extraction’ imposed on marketers
  • The right KPIs for your email business model
  • Optimizing email marketing campaigns
  • Xfinity wins award for mobile promotions
Oracle Digital Experience Agency's Brian Sullivan explores commonalities across state privacy laws and what that means for a national law.

Pressure Builds for US Privacy Law as State Laws Pile Up

The American Privacy Rights Act (APRA) may establish a national comprehensive privacy law in the US. In the meantime, marketers must comply with an ever-growing list of state-level privacy laws.

 
How to be prepared
The only way brands can protect themselves is by using annotations and schema, which they haven't seen as worthwhile to this point.

Annotations, Schema, & ‘Automatic Extraction’

After lackluster adoption, annotations and schema are now being automatically applied to brands’ email campaigns by Gmail and Yahoo with mixed results at best.

 
3 problems & the solution
Stay focused on the metrics that are most meaningful to your business.

The Right Email KPIs? Depends on Your Business Model

Say What?

“Back-to-school marketing can be grating when it’s too brash—and can even be triggering for students who dread the transition. Avoid high-pressure language, banish exclamation marks, and keep copy and imagery lighthearted. If your promotions are scheduled to begin long before school starts, consider acknowledging that (e.g., The Not Quite Back to School Sale).”
