It's the changes that are happening tanderground thet will eount, and they're the ones we should be aware of, Advertising in the future wi be stealthity and eerily targeted, disturbingly omnipresent aint ineseapable, Technology, fratucaly, will be she engine. User tracking software that records your TV and fnteret viewing, habits in minute detail and crosses it with you purchasing history will allow the advertiser to know that you have children, that you ent meat, that your native tongue is Spanish and that your dishwasher is however any years ld.

Say what you will, that’s a nifty trick. In the future, people won't be bothered with advertising ‘messages irrelevant to them. ‘They'll tend to like advertising better because it's so carefully tailored to their tastes and will begin to feel less like an intrusion. ‘This works for the advertiser too because fewer dollars will bbe wasted.

Advertsing wi therefore inevitably slip beyond the boundaries of the 30-second ‘commercial and the full-page ‘ad and migrate to the rest of the ‘worl, including entertainment, journalism and art, You can glimpse the future now. Product placement in movies is an obvious instance of where advertising hhas slipped outside its traditionat container into entertainment. The music channels which are an entertainment medium designed | expressly to sell records are another classic example. Every time an artist mentions a brand in their lysics, advertising slips into at. Ifyou have a tatloo of your team’s name, you're already there, Ifyou wear a T-shiet with a logo onit, you're also there but with less pain. Eventually, every surface that can display a message will ‘be appropriated for advertising, Abaeklash is inevitable. Perhaps people will pay a premium to live sn advertising, free zones.
