Welcome back to Campaign Asia-Pacific's Crash Course learning series, in which you will learn valuable lessons and practical business tips on trending and essential topics from industry experts in just five minutes. Think of it as a mini mini MBA, if you will.
Lessons will cover the breadth of the marcomms industry, including technology, creative, media, strategy, leadership, diversity and inclusion and more. We'll start off by introducing you to larger topics and delve deeper into specific elements in the future. This series is designed to be useful to C-suite executives as well as those just starting out in their careers.
The 30th lesson in the Crash Course series will cover how marketers can maximise their return on investments from the lucrative gaming market. Gaming is estimated to be a $180 billion dollar industry, which makes it larger than the global movie and music industry combined. Recent research from Deloitte, which looks at consumption of entertainment among different generations shows that Gen Z, a key emerging demographic, consumes about a quarter of their time on online gaming and only 10% of their time on movies and TV shows.
In this lesson you will learn:
- How to get started with targeted video ads
- Building custom solutions
- The esports opportunity
- Being authentic and organic with your audience
- Why you should plan for a mararthon gaming strategy
