Search marketing, display advertising, mobile marketing, email marketing, and social media will grow to 35% of all advertising spend as they are embedded in the marketing mix. Forrester Research expects this growth to help firms become adaptive, kill off daily deals, re-emphasize marketing’s “p’s,” and turn consumer electronics into audience-targeting tools.</p></div></td></tr><tr><td><a href="/web/20120922090041/http://www.omniture.com/offer/1283" target="_blank"><img style="float: right" src="/web/20120922090041im_/http://www.omniture.com/assets/global/images/logos/partners/logo_forrester.gif"/></a> <a class="title" href="/web/20120922090041/http://www.omniture.com/offer/1283" target="_blank">How tag management improves digital analytics</a><a id="link_1283" onclick="javascript:Effect.Combo_details('1283', {duration: 0.2}, 'en');" class="details_link">DETAILS</a> <div id="details_1283" class="details_text" style="background-image: url('https://web.archive.org/web/20120922090041im_/http://assets.omniture.com/global/images/sections/resources/mug_joe_stanhope.jpg'); display: none"><p><strong>Authors</strong><br/>Joseph Stanhope, Senior Analyst, Forrester</p><p><strong>Summary</strong><br/>Customer Intelligence (CI) professionals have a tag management problem. JavaScript tags are omnipresent on Web sites, supporting a wide variety of analytics, marketing, and technical services. But implementing and maintaining tags is a constant battle, and in many cases the tags are winning, putting marketing, measurement, and site effectiveness at risk. Firms should conduct a Web site tag audit to determine whether tag management is a significant risk factor. In the case of complex Web sites or those with an extensive tag footprint, investing in a tag management system yields multiple benefits based on efficient processes and accurate tracking.</p></div></td></tr><tr class="highlight"><td><a href="/web/20120922090041/http://www.omniture.com/offer/1293" target="_blank"><img style="float: right" src="/web/20120922090041im_/http://www.omniture.com/assets/global/images/logos/partners/logo_forrester.gif"/></a> <a class="title" href="/web/20120922090041/http://www.omniture.com/offer/1293" target="_blank">The purchase path of online buyers</a><a id="link_1293" onclick="javascript:Effect.Combo_details('1293', {duration: 0.2}, 'en');" class="details_link">DETAILS</a> <div id="details_1293" class="details_text" style="background-image: url('https://web.archive.org/web/20120922090041im_/http://assets.omniture.com/global/images/sections/resources/mug_sucharita_mulpuru.jpg'); display: none"><p><strong>Authors</strong><br/>Sucharita Mulpuru, Vice President and Principal Analyst, Forrester</p><p><strong>Summary</strong><br/>Successfully reaching online shoppers is a growing challenge for marketers.
