Deep dives
AI takes over advertising
In 2024, AI will play a significant role in advertising. AI-generated ads, powered by Pmax and ASC technology, will become more prevalent and will likely outperform human-generated ads. This shift will revolutionize the creative process in marketing, with AI tools generating and editing ads to enhance their performance and effectiveness.
Social network shops experience significant growth
2024 will witness a tremendous growth in social network shops, such as TikTok Shop, Facebook Shop, and YouTube Shopping. These platforms will see a 400% increase in usage year over year. As more consumers engage in social shopping, traditional e-commerce platforms may face challenges to stay relevant amidst the rise of these social network shops.
Amazon becomes a white knight in the battle against social network shops
Amazon will position itself as an ally in the fight against social network shops. By emphasizing its trustworthiness and high-quality products, Amazon will strive to attract customers who are wary of the perceived lower quality offerings from social network shops. Amazon may also make strategic moves, potentially even acquiring platforms like TikTok to establish dominance and counter the growing influence of social network shops.
AI revolutionizes video advertising
AI-driven advancements will transform the landscape of video advertising. While AI-generated real people videos are not yet mainstream, the technology is rapidly evolving, and we can expect significant progress in this area. AI will be utilized to generate and edit video content, providing marketers with more efficient and effective ways to engage audiences through compelling video advertisements.
The housing market is anticipated to face continued challenges in 2024, with rising interest rates and stagnant prices. This could potentially lead to a slowdown in consumer spending, as individuals may feel less confident in their economic stability and hesitate to make large purchases. The impact of the housing market on consumer spending will be an interesting trend to observe.
