Email And Social Media Are Marketers’ Top Choice for 2010

October 04, 2009 | Willis Wee

According to the “2010 Media Planning Intelligence Study”, email and social media are the top media choices for marketers in 2010.

I guess the limelight social media is receiving in both the social and business worlds pretty well explains the result.

With all that said, email still managed to be the No. 1 favorite due to its simplicity and effectiveness.

Check out how other marketing media fared.

Radio and magazine advertising remained on the top few, but how long can they last with the inability to measure marketing effectiveness?

Online video not popular

The disappointing statistic for online video may signal to video sharing sites that marketers aren’t ready for them. What should YouTube, in particular do to encourage marketers to use its service for business activities?

Looking at how The Final Destination movie spoofs, produced by Shane Dawson and Obama Girl have attracted millions of views, this media is not all without potential. Perhaps that have sparked more future business involvement in effective online video marketing.

Hey, Willis. I guess the Internet still isn't geared towards online video marketing. However, when it does, we will be expecting it to come out with a bang (and a lot of views, as well).

I wonder why mobile SMS text is in the final 3 media choices? With 3G developments and stuff, what is still lacking? Almost everyone has a cellphone so why does it have a depressing output?Do you think networks should upgrade their systems a bit further to achieve a higher rate next year? I believe that give or take a couple of years, mobile marketing will start to gain ground, too.

yeap. I guess sms text marketing could be a little intruding. it also requires the person's cellphone number. But again, it could work out great for small businesses if used properly. It could entice members of a restaurant (for example) to make repeat purchases.
