Brand and marketing executives at consumer products companies have faced significant shifts in the market landscape in recent years. Consumers now expect more personalized content, convenience, and fair-trade sourcing, and they are researching and shopping through multiple channels at any hour. As a result, traditional marketing playbooks are becoming less applicable to these emerging consumer trends.

To adapt and modernize, marketing organizations must take specific steps to navigate the new terrain effectively.

No single solution or approach will work for every company, so marketing executives must choose the areas that are most relevant to their business and sequence them appropriately.

Brand managers must have depth as well as breadth, including being conversant with advanced analytical tools and data from third-party panels, media platforms, retailers, and alternative sources.
