75% of US marketers are now experiencing diminishing returns on their performance marketing spend.
Dashboards look great. Growth has flatlined. Acquisition costs keep climbing. And the playbook that has worked in the past is delivering less every quarter.
Future Demand explains why, and what the most successful brands in the world are doing differently.
In any market, only 5-25% of buyers are ready to purchase right now.
The rest are your future customers. And many companies aren't marketing to them at all.
Future Demand gives you the empirical evidence and playbook to capture your brand's future buyers.
Your performance metrics used to look great but growth has stalled.
You're spending more to acquire the same customers.
You know something needs to change but you can't prove it to your CFO.
Two ways to take the thinking even further. An AI app that answers your questions, and a community of marketers going deeper.
Pocket Advisor App
Future Demand Pocket Advisor is an AI app that lets you ask the book any question about marketing and advertising effectiveness, and get high-quality answers based on the content of the book. The answers come with charts from the book, and you can create mini-white-paper PDFs and editable PowerPoint slide decks from the answers.
Future Demand Community
On the Future Demand Community platform you can engage in discussion, debate and learning about marketing and advertising effectiveness. Start discussions, read and write articles, tag and message with other members, and check out a feed of recent marketing science news and pods James thinks are interesting.
