CHINESE TRENDS Predictions for 2012…!

Page 7: Chinese Digital Marketing Outlook 2012

Prediction #1… Mobile!Mobile is not simply smartphones but covers tablets. This medium will attract advertisers to move campaigns into this form. Expect to see cross platform gaming, eCoupons, banners and search delivered via this device type

Page 8: Chinese Digital Marketing Outlook 2012

Prediction #2… Gaming!Gaming made a lot of money for companies via virtual currency, subscription models etc. but in 2012 Digital Jungle expects many Brands leverage social/casual games create ‘stickiness’ on social media sites and campaign pages given the additional pressure to not just grow fans but to increase engagement

Page 9: Chinese Digital Marketing Outlook 2012

Prediction #3… Search!Search is not an option for campaigns but a required component. Brands fully understand the importance search plays in online in consumer behavior. More budget will continue to be allocated (increasing spend outside Baidu in 2012/2013) Chinese Search Engines: Google HK: www.google.com.hk Baidu: www.baidu.com Yahoo CN: www.yahoo.cn SoSo: www.soso.com Youdao: www.youdao.com Sogou: www.sogou.com Bing CN: cn.bing.com Zhong Sou: www.zhongsou.com Sina Search: search.sina.com.cn

Prediction #4… eCommerce!eCommerce has had a big impact on the way consumers look/value a Brand. Although B2C is dominated by 2-3 players in China, Digital Jungle expects to see more FMCG & Luxury Brands create direct eCommerce capabilities in 2012

Page 11: Chinese Digital Marketing Outlook 2012

Prediction #5… Sharing and fairing!Social sharing & fairing. When the number of microblog users exceeded 200 million, the role of microblog shifted from ‘new media’ to ‘hot media’. Not only Sina, organisations such as Sohu, Netease, and Tencent also are competing to expand their activity in this space. Expect to see more ‘vertical’ social sites developed by Brands in 2012

Especially in travel, automotive and luxury sectors Meanwhile, social websites and the Weibo marketing will also be among the hot issues in the Chinese market.

Page 19: Chinese Digital Marketing Outlook 2012

Given the power in 2012 of social media, the way Brand connect and engage needs to be rethought. Messages and communication strategies need to considered as ‘push/pull’ and not simply ‘push’ Micro-targeting is more possible given the sophisticated level of marketing technologies

Power to the people… the marketing spiral!
