In its latest "2027 budget planning guides", the research firm found that **89% of B2B marketing decision-makers** and **91% of B2C marketers** expect marketing investments to increase over the next 12 months. However, it argues that the next budgeting cycle should be treated as an opportunity to rethink how marketing operates, as artificial intelligence reshapes customer discovery, campaign execution and the way marketing creates business value. Rather than increasing spend across existing priorities, marketers are urged to redirect investment towards **AI readiness**, **answer engine optimisation (AEO)**, **market intelligence**, **commerce media**, **AI-enabled planning and execution**, and **marketing-specific AI capabilities**. ### Where the Money Goes: B2B vs. B2C For B2B organisations, **technology** is expected to receive the biggest investment boost, with 80% of marketers planning to increase spending. Personnel and programmes follow closely at 76% each. Programmes currently account for the largest share of marketing budgets at 37%, followed by personnel and technology at 32% apiece, said Forrester. Meanwhile, **B2C marketers** also expect technology to see the strongest spending growth, ahead of services and paid media, with fewer than one in 10 anticipating budgets will remain flat or decrease. ### Spend Smarter, Not Bigger However, the report argues that marketers should resist using larger budgets as an excuse to buy more technology. Instead, investment should be directed towards platforms that clearly support business objectives, while duplicate tools, integration complexity and unnecessary technical debt are reduced. The same principle applies to programme spending. Rather than maintaining historical budget allocations, marketers should continuously adjust investments based on buyer behaviour, customer needs and market conditions. Brands looking to build awareness may need to invest more in reputation before accelerating demand generation, while those facing slowing purchase intent should channel more resources into retention and renewal marketing. ### The Rise of Answer Engine Optimisation One of the report's strongest recommendations is for marketers to increase investment in **answer engine optimisation** as AI-powered search fundamentally changes how buyers and consumers discover brands. According to Forrester, **94% of business buyers now use generative AI** during the purchasing journey, making visibility within AI-generated responses increasingly important. > Rather than focusing solely on traditional search rankings, brands should ensure their content is easily understood by AI systems while strengthening their authority through trusted third-party sources such as customers, partners and industry experts. The B2C report echoes this shift, noting that platforms such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Mode are changing search behaviour. As AI-generated answers increasingly rely on third-party sources, marketers should think beyond traditional SEO by investing more heavily in **PR, influencer marketing, customer reviews** and other forms of earned credibility that help shape how brands appear in AI-powered search experiences. ### Embedding AI in the Marketing Workflow The shift extends beyond how brands are discovered. Marketers are also encouraged to embed AI throughout the marketing workflow, using it to support campaign planning, execution, optimisation and measurement rather than limiting it to content generation. To support this transition, organisations should invest in marketing-specific AI capabilities, including **AI architects**, **governance specialists** and continuous workforce training, while experimenting with AI agents that can assist with campaign execution, audience generation, content production and customer engagement. The report also encourages brands to explore synthetic data to accelerate customer research and concept testing, provided appropriate governance is in place. ### AI Is Not a Cost-Cutting Exercise At the same time, AI should not be viewed solely as a cost-cutting exercise. Rather than reducing headcount in anticipation of productivity gains, organisations are encouraged to redesign workflows first, using AI to automate individual tasks while allowing employees to focus on higher-value strategic work. The same principle applies to marketing investments. Rather than pouring resources into disconnected AI pilots, fragmented technology stacks, manual campaign production or outdated measurement models, marketers should prioritise the operational foundations that enable AI to deliver sustainable business value. "Business leaders are no longer planning for a return to stability — they're planning for a future where volatility is a constant," said Sharyn Leaver, chief research officer at Forrester. > The organisations that outperform in 2027 won't be those that spend the most on AI. They'll be the ones that invest in the foundations that make AI effective: trusted data, strong governance, organisational readiness and the ability to continuously adapt as technology and customer behaviour evolve. The latest report also highlights how quickly the conversation around AI has evolved. In its "2026 budget planning guides", Forrester encouraged organisations to prepare for economic uncertainty through scenario planning, stronger data literacy and AI readiness. The focus has since shifted. Rather than debating whether to invest in AI, marketers are now being encouraged to rethink where those investments should go. Across both the B2B and B2C guides, the priority is no longer AI adoption alone but building the operational foundations that allow AI to deliver measurable business value through areas such as answer engine optimisation, market intelligence, governance, workflow redesign and marketing-specific AI skills.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>marketingbudgets</category> <category>aireadiness</category> <category>answerengineoptimisation</category> <category>forrester</category> <category>marketingstrategy</category> <enclosure url="https://marketing-interactive-assets.b-cdn.net/article_images/2027-will-see-bigger-budgets-for-marketers/1784521583_forrester%20budgets%20%282%29.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[CWPC Ponzi Scheme Allegations: Netizens Cry Over Locked Funds]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/cwpc-ponzi-scheme-allegations-netizens-cry-over-locked-funds</link> <guid>cwpc-ponzi-scheme-allegations-netizens-cry-over-locked-funds</guid> <pubDate>Sun, 19 Jul 2026 08:00:53 GMT</pubDate> <description><]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>cwpc</category> <category>ponzischeme</category> <category>digitalmarketing</category> <category>investoralert</category> <category>socialmedia</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.ghanaweb.com/imagelib/pics/177/17785894.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Rob Lowe Teams Up with Accredited Debt Relief to Tackle Financial Stigma]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/rob-lowe-teams-up-with-accredited-debt-relief-to-tackle-financial-stigma</link> <guid>rob-lowe-teams-up-with-accredited-debt-relief-to-tackle-financial-stigma</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 08:00:49 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Rob Lowe, known for his roles in "The West Wing" and "9-1-1 Lone Star," is taking on a new role as a **marketing partner** for Accredited Debt Relief. The campaign, launching in August, aims to **challenge the stigma** surrounding financial hardship. In a TV spot, Lowe portrays a family grappling with the possibility that their son may not be able to play baseball due to costs. The message is clear: **financial struggles don't define you**, and seeking help is a sign of strength. "Americans are carrying more debt than ever, and the weight of it can feel overwhelming. We need to talk openly about real solutions," says Lowe. "I'm grateful that Accredited Debt Relief invited me to help tell stories that reduce stigma, encourage people to seek support when they need it, and remind them that financial hardship doesn't define who they are." This isn't Lowe's first foray into advertising. He previously starred in humorous DirecTV campaigns and served as a spokesperson for the Atkins Diet. But this partnership is more serious, focusing on **real solutions** for debt relief. Accredited Debt Relief negotiates with creditors to reduce credit card, medical, and personal loan debts. The campaign aims to normalize conversations about debt and encourage consumers to explore options.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>roblowe</category> <category>debtrelief</category> <category>marketingpartnership</category> <category>financialstigma</category> <category>advertisingcampaign</category> <enclosure url="https://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Accredited-Debt-Relief-Rob-Lowe-First-Look-07072026.jpg?w=1000&h=667&crop=1" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Marketing Firm Liquidated After 2.4M Illegal Cold Calls: A Cautionary Tale]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/marketing-firm-liquidated-after-24m-illegal-cold-calls-a-cautionary-tale</link> <guid>marketing-firm-liquidated-after-24m-illegal-cold-calls-a-cautionary-tale</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 16:00:43 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[A marketing company has been **forced into liquidation** after the UK's data protection watchdog took legal action over **2.4 million unsolicited cold calls**. Home Improvement Marketing Ltd, based in Pembrokeshire, was ordered to wind up by the High Court after a petition by the **Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)**. The regulator had previously issued enforcement action and a substantial fine for breaching electronic marketing rules. The winding-up order means the business must **close immediately**, with the Official Receiver now managing its assets and liabilities. The ICO filed the petition as a creditor, highlighting the serious consequences of non-compliance. This case serves as a **stark warning** to marketers: regulators are actively pursuing companies that flout the law, and the penalties can be business-ending. The ICO is cracking down on nuisance calls, and firms must ensure they have **proper consent** before contacting consumers. For those affected, the Official Receiver’s office in Birmingham is handling inquiries. This development underscores the **importance of ethical marketing practices** and the risks of ignoring data protection regulations.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>ico</category> <category>coldcalls</category> <category>liquidation</category> <category>dataprotection</category> <category>marketingregulation</category> <enclosure url="https://www.westerntelegraph.co.uk/resources/images/21194500.jpg?type=og-image" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Why Creators Are Outsmarting Traditional Ads and Earning More Than Ever]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/why-creators-are-outsmarting-traditional-ads-and-earning-more-than-ever</link> <guid>why-creators-are-outsmarting-traditional-ads-and-earning-more-than-ever</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 17 Jul 2026 16:00:45 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[## The Rise of the Creator Economy Influencer marketing isn’t just a trend anymore; it’s a central pillar of how brands communicate. Behind the captivating content of creators is a blend of business mechanisms, ever more advanced algorithms, and finely tuned psychological strategies that shape how we see products and services. The creator economy is built on a structured ecosystem where the real value is measured by the quality of engagement. Today, creators act as independent media channels. They design, produce, and broadcast highly targeted messages to niche audiences—often with a level of agility and authenticity traditional media can only dream of. ## Why Agencies and Data Drive Collaboration Coordinating these complex collaborations usually requires help from influencer agencies. These specialist firms organize campaigns and guide brands in making the right picks. And there’s a method behind the madness: industry data shows that most brands team up with fewer than 10 influencers a year—precisely, 37.6% of them do. Monetization for creators comes in many flavors: - Product placements - Affiliate partnerships - Co-creations and collaborations This business model succeeds because it thrives on the continuous, nimble production of content tailored to the ever-shifting codes of the internet. ## The Algorithmic Backbone Every time you view a creator’s post, there’s some serious algorithmic wizardry at work behind the scenes. Social media platforms no longer simply show you content from the accounts you follow; they predict your interests in real time. **Artificial intelligence** analyzes thousands of subtle signals: how long you linger on an image, whether you watch a video to the end, your shares and comments. This tech dependence means creators have to adapt constantly. **Algorithms reward regular posting and interactive content.** AI determines a post’s reach based on its power to keep you engaged for as long as possible. So, a campaign’s success no longer depends just on a creator’s fame, but on how well their content matches the technical requirements for being shown in your news feed. ## The Psychology of Trust: Why Creators Win At the heart of this model lies a deep-rooted psychological mechanism: **transferring trust**. Traditional advertising faces a growing credibility gap. People immediately spot the sales pitch underneath, and that skepticism cuts into buying behavior. In fact, **69% of consumers trust influencer recommendations more than brand advertisements.** The bond between a creator and their community can feel like a one-way friendship—close, chatty, and personal. When a creator recommends a product, it lands like friendly advice from someone in the know. That closeness lowers resistance and makes purchasing almost seamless. > “Trust, closeness, and authenticity—they’re the holy trinity of influencer marketing, but also the easiest to fake. Fake followers, bought engagement, off-brand partnerships—too much of that, and trust evaporates. That’s why vetting communities and picking creators whose values match the brand is the difference between a campaign that truly connects and one that falls flat. Agencies like Clark Influence excel at this. Trust isn’t declared—it’s built, one post and one genuine connection at a time.” Influence won’t replace advertising altogether—it complements it by leveraging an already nurtured relationship, often at a lower cost with demonstrable returns. But the advantage is precarious: **trust and authenticity can be easily faked or broken.** The industry’s move toward professionalism, with attention to genuine communities and carefully chosen collaborations, is what allows the best campaigns to resonate—and keeps creators earning more than ever.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>influencermarketing</category> <category>creatoreconomy</category> <category>marketingstrategy</category> <category>trust</category> <category>algorithms</category> <enclosure url="https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/why-creators-are-earning-more-than-ever-and-outsmarting-traditional-advertising.webp" length="0" type="image/webp"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[OpenAI Poaches Google and Meta Vets to Supercharge Aussie Ad Sales]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/openai-poaches-google-and-meta-vets-to-supercharge-aussie-ad-sales</link> <guid>openai-poaches-google-and-meta-vets-to-supercharge-aussie-ad-sales</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 17 Jul 2026 08:01:01 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[OpenAI has hired two long-serving executives from Meta and Google to build out its go-to-market advertising strategy in Australia. **Mitch Pilar** joins from Google, where he spent 12 years, most recently as senior industry manager. **Andy Sinn** worked at Meta for a decade, where he was agency partner. They will both report to Dave Dugan, OpenAI’s head of global ads solutions. Pilar announced his move on LinkedIn, writing: “At OpenAI, I am most excited about the unique opportunity to help build an entirely new platform during a moment when people are changing the way they discover, create, plan and make decisions. I can’t wait to start shaping how AUNZ businesses show up in these moments in a way that is useful, trusted and additive.” Sinn also announced the news, writing: “Well, that’s a wrap after 10 years at Meta. I’m grateful for the people I’ve worked alongside, the clients and agencies I’ve partnered with, and the experiences along the way.” Of his new gig, he added: “What’s exciting is that we’re still at the very beginning—and we’re moving fast.” A company spokesperson said: “OpenAI is excited to welcome two new hires to our growing Australia and New Zealand team. They will work closely with brands and agencies across Australia and New Zealand as we continue to build our advertising solutions. Australia and New Zealand are hugely important markets for OpenAI, with people increasingly turning to our tools, including ChatGPT, to explore ideas, compare options and make decisions.” OpenAI started piloting advertising within ChatGPT for Australian users in April. The ads are currently limited to logged-in adult users on the free and low-priced “Go” tiers. The Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise models won’t have advertising, and the company said that ChatGPT’s answers will “remain independent and unbiased”, conversations will stay private, and users can have “meaningful control over their experience”. In January, Paul Hewett, CEO of In Marketing We Trust, told Mumbrella the introduction of advertising into ChatGPT was a “significant moment” for marketers and media buyers, but stressed that caution is key. “The ad product may provide more insights and metrics, such as the depth of the impression within a conversation thread, which is a significant step forward. However, there are some caveats: will users actually click on them, and will they be any different from traditional display ads? Additionally, buying in a closed data environment poses challenges for marketing measurement.”]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>openai</category> <category>advertising</category> <category>australia</category> <category>chatgpt</category> <category>digitalmarketing</category> <enclosure url="https://mumbrella.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Mitch_Pilar_Andy_Sinn_2026-07-17.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Sparro Founders Quietly Exit: End of an Era for Australia's Digital Agency Giant]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/sparro-founders-quietly-exit-end-of-an-era-for-australias-digital-agency-giant</link> <guid>sparro-founders-quietly-exit-end-of-an-era-for-australias-digital-agency-giant</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 16 Jul 2026 08:01:22 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[The founders of Sparro, Morris Bryant and Cameron Bryant, have quietly exited the agency they built from a digital media buying start-up into a full-service powerhouse managing over $250 million in annual ad spend. Founded in 2013, Sparro grew to serve major clients like Temple & Webster, Estée Lauder, Bing Lee, and Ralph Lauren, and acquired creative agency Jack Nimble in 2021 before being sold to private equity-backed Brainlabs in 2024. **Key developments:** - Morris Bryant left in September, Cameron in May; both are now listed as investors. - Long-time employee **Hannah Jones** has been promoted to CEO, having spent nine years at the agency and played a pivotal role in defining Sparro’s identity. - Jones previously served as general manager and managing director, and is described by the founders as "the heart of the business" and "the best leader I know."
