Real-time marketing is the process of creating a marketing strategy focused on up-to-date or ongoing events. Social media platforms have created a great opportunity for running real-time marketing campaigns.

Jerry Dischler, Vice President, Product Management at Google Ads has shared three benefits of real-time marketing.

Dischler says, “Changes in consumer behavior have always resulted in adjustments to marketing strategies. COVID-19 has shown how quickly consumers’ interests, expectations, and purchasing behavior can shift—and with it, an ebb and flow in demand for products and services. Despite these changes, consumer expectations for businesses and brands remain high. In fact, 78 percent of people surveyed say brands should show how they can be helpful in the new everyday life.1

Adjusting your media buying and the way your business shows up in these dynamic conditions is difficult, especially when some businesses are having to manage twice the complexity with half the capacity. Today, we’ll explore the unique role automation can play in helping you respond to the impact of COVID-19 in real time.
