It is expressed through multiple dimensions, each of which plays an important role. In fact, it is very rare to have only one target in a marketing approach, as different population segments or personas may exhibit significant differences in their response to the same product or service. <\/em><em>The vast array of media options and their various touchpoints provide brands with numerous possibilities for both broad and precise targeting. Mastering this subject is essential, regardless of your role in the advertising workflow.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>De toekomst is terug voor merken<\/strong><\/em> (Fons Van Dyck)<br \/>\nWhat are the forces driving people and consumers today? And more importantly: what does the future hold, and how can brands successfully navigate through a mental winter?

Without falling into \u201cwokeism,\u201d the content raises awareness of the reality of discrimination and guides us toward good\u2014or better\u2014practices. <\/em><em>It is indeed possible to develop activist and credible messages that highlight our differences rather than caricaturing them\u2014or worse, marginalizing them. Media, brands, and advertisers, whether consciously or not, hold a responsibility in the fight against stereotypes and discrimination.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-ogsc=\"rgb(68, 68, 68)\" data-ogsb=\"white\"><em>The power of triangulation, the advertising effectiveness framework <\/em><\/span><\/strong><em>(Bart De Pauw)<\/em><strong><span data-ogsc=\"rgb(68, 68, 68)\" data-ogsb=\"white\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><em>In a data driven world, fuelled by AI, planning will be increasingly \u2018platform-driven\u2019.\u00a0 With the huge competition between the big (tech) players, the future risks to become even more siloed.
