Three recent developments reveal a common trend:
π¦ SBI has appointed a new digital marketing partner to strengthen its digital outreach.
π₯ NestlΓ© is increasing marketing investments while shifting toward a social-first brand-building strategy.
π FMCG brands are increasingly focusing on influencing purchase decisions closer to the point of sale, where the final buying decision is often made.

π Brands are no longer thinking in silos.
The focus is moving toward creating a connected customer journey across:
π± Social media

ποΈ Retail and checkout experiences

Because in today's market...
π Visibility creates attention.
