Deep dives

Short-Term Thinking in Marketing

In the fast-paced marketing landscape, planning should be limited to about 90 to 100 days ahead due to ever-changing trends and topics. Long-term strategies risk becoming obsolete as new conversations emerge, potentially undermining morale when a prepared launch coincides with declining interest. This emphasizes the need for marketers to stay agile and responsive, ensuring that their strategies align with current market trends. By focusing on shorter timeframes, marketers can adapt quickly, promoting more effective and relevant campaigns.
