Digital Asset Management (DAM) offers marketing managers and advertising experts a solution to avoid critical pitfalls.

Today, consumer expectations are changing rapidly, and inclusive marketing is no longer optional—it’s essential. Let’s explore why embracing inclusivity in age, appearance, ethnicity, gender identity, language, socio-economic status, and physical/mental ability is critical to engaging with a broader and more diverse audience.

The companies that make CX a focused priority can experience as much as an 80% increase in revenue. What’s more, the brands that put the customer experience at the core of what they do end up reporting profits that are 60% higher than the companies that don’t share this same level of focus on CX.

Is a slow product development lifecycle getting in the way of your ability to corner the market? Time to Market (TTM) is a pivotal success factor in the manufacturing industry, particularly when developing new products.

Product information data should help you understand and locate all the products in your "catalog". Ideally, this means that everyone in your team and all your third-party partners can access the same information at the same time.

To make the customer experience central to their marketing strategy, retailers must thrive in offline (print) and online digital channels. The retail customer experience is not an easily definable event – or even a series of events. It’s a complex relationship, not a checklist of dos and don’ts.

E-commerce brands need a way to manage consistent, high-quality product information across print and digital channels. PIM systems can provide that single source of truth. Digital e-commerce (conducting business via the Internet) is nothing new. The first such transaction involved the sale of cannabis via ARPANET in the early 1970s. But ever since the recovery from the dot-com bust of the early 2000s, and especially since the emergence of smartphones, buying online is the new normal.

Last month, we discovered that artificial intelligence, far from being a threat to retail marketing teams, is, in fact, an essential team player. The early results of using DecaSIM’s AI tools in conjunction with Comosoft LAGO showed that the two systems complement one another, each providing unique benefits for retail advertising and marketing directors.

A mere eleven months ago, OpenAI launched the public version of its AI-based, large language model, ChatGPT. In that short time, the noise surrounding AI has dominated the media, boardroom conversations, and almost every social gathering on the planet. Retail advertising and marketing directors everywhere are inundated with questions. “What are we doing about artificial intelligence – and how will we survive without it?”

Without a doubt, Artificial Intelligence is the number one story of 2023, with breaking news and hyperbolic predictions popping up daily. Retailers and their partners are justifiably concerned. Retail marketing and advertising directors are asking what AI will mean for their current operations and the future of retail marketing in general.
