With competition and technology constantly evolving, companies in all types of industries need to consistently find new ways to get their products and services in front of receptive audiences. As a marketing expert, I believe one of the most promising strategies for businesses is interactive marketing, otherwise called trigger-based or event-based marketing. It's a form of digital outreach that's initiated by the consumer and is currently being used by banks, hospitals, airports, and many different types of retail stores.

Robotics is here to stay. Look around you and you will find that AI has infiltrated every aspect of our human culture from video games to home servants, from security to the way we drive our car. It has become an integral part of our everyday life. It has also become an integral part of our professional life. You will find technological advances in manufacturing, medicine, sports and many other professions, including marketing.

Whatever industry you are in, a business professional knows trade shows. Yet whatever role you play–attendee, educator, exhibitor, sponsor–you should know marketing at trade shows is changing. Exhibit booths and showroom floors are going high tech.

Artificial intelligence (“AI”), that convincingly mimics the behavior of humans, may seem like advanced technology from the distant future, but current AI is already a powerful influence on marketing communications and product design. The ultimate marketing goal for front-facing departments within a wide range of companies, albeit retail stores to reception desks, is to offer consumers personalized interactions that create lasting relationships, which generate continual sales and sustained loyalty. With AI, these relationships are no longer relegated to human interactions alone. I believe that artificial intelligence, augmenting the human efforts, shows enormous potential for brands.
