Marketing Trends that Will Drive Strategies & Media Planning in 2019
As the world moves to a never-ending binge video
watching spree, the marketers are finding it harder than ever to reach their
audience, without being perceived as irritating or intrusive. It’s a fact that video is here to stay and no
one knows it better than people in South East Asia, as the region has become
the playground of OTT content providers and everyone is hyper social, with
Malaysia leading the charts of social media frenzy. As per global reports,
Malaysians have more than 3 social media accounts and consume video media the
most in the entire region. In other words, contextual video targeting, is the only way forward for brands to connect with their
hyper busy audience.

be the case globally. And, this is where
