How to use Technology to improve Marketing

Artificial intelligence

This helps us to find useful patterns and insights in numbers. Marketers use these patterns and insights to predict customer behavior and target advertisements effectively. AI is also used by search engines to interpret search queries to bring up the results that are relevant. 

Augmented reality

This allows brands give their consumers unique experiences as it combines virtual world onto the real world. With Augment reality, brands can show their consumers how their products or services work without having to spend hours reading the instruction manual. They can “try before they buy”. 

Chatbots

A chatbot is a software application used to conduct an on-line chat conversation via text or text-to-speech, in lieu of providing direct contact with a live human agent. In addition, it helps move your customer through the sales funnel, gather customer feedback and data, and reach a wider audience. 

Internet of things (IoT)

IoT is the collection of devices connected by the internet – refrigerators, cars, air conditioners etc. With IoT, marketers can gather information based on their preferences to serve them advertisements related to their habits, preferences, likes. 

Programmatic

A simple definition of programmatic advertising is “the use of software to buy digital advertising”. Marketers use it to show an ad to a specific customer, in a specific context.
