 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Stephanie Houslay] Making predictions in a world that moves as quickly as the one we live in today is brave and perhaps even a little foolish. But based on the way the world evolved last year, here are a few trends I expect to play out in 2013 and beyond. At the centre of these trends is the way that technology is giving the consumer more power to shape brands than ever before.

 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Attila Bernariusz] Web advertising sales teams that have focused exclusively on click-through rates as the major metric for success in online display advertising have done harm to the digital publishing industry.

 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Chantel Botha] I take out my crystal ball, as any good consultant is required to do at times, and venture to make some predictions for what customer experience challenges and trends I think brands will face this year.

[Daniel Dercksen] Imagine living in a video game in one of many video arcades where fun and adventure rules and everything is possible. It's just a pity that the sum total of your existence is scrupulously proscribed by the Big Brother of cyberspace and manipulated by the contending fingers of heated rivals and over-eager video game junkies. Yes, being the iconic moral fibre of video games is hard work, even if you are the villain or anti-hero. |

[Daniel Dercksen] Malicious reality and redundant fear can easily imprison us, but as Argo shows, it's the fantasy of our imagination and unwavering optimism that can set us free and resolve unthinkable dilemmas. |
 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Melody Maker] For years, digital agencies and publishers have tried to sell the value of their medium by attacking traditional media such as television, print and outdoor. These old-fashioned channels are outdated, we are told; they are irrelevant and taking their last breaths of life in a market that is shifting over to digital platforms.

 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Harry Herber] The one thing that's certain when talking about anything relating to media is that if you have three people involved in the discussion, you'll get three opinions. Not only three opinions, but, indeed, three opinions that can be objectively rationalised and supported with defined case studies that empirically prove each case.

[Doug Mayne] All early indicators seem to confirm that December 2012 was a relatively good year for the mall environment. Certainly not a 'shoot the lights out' result but stable, single digit growth nonetheless. The point now is what 2013 holds in store for us. Here are a few key trends which I think are relevant... |

[Eugene Yiga] Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? Certainly not Rob van Vuuren, co-writer and co-star of Three Little Pigs, a production described as a cross between Animal Farm and Reservoir Dogs. He chats to us about the concept, preparing for his role, and what's next for this gritty play. |

[Kevin Bassett] "Content, context and customer proclivity" will be the mantra that drives this year's marketing metamorphosis in the arena of mobile technology. I believe that we will see a year of repositioning - of un-automate, de-campaign and game-play - but also of tighten, regulate and measure. In short, 2013 will see the 'mobile moth' turn into a butterfly. |
 | MARKETING & MEDIA  [Mbali Ndandani] Every business worth its salt has a three, five, or even ten-year strategy. This would typically include growth targets, market share, product innovations etc. It's a sign of a forward thinking business and fills shareholders with confidence that their hard-earned cash will be exponentially greater.

[Charles Siboto] Now that we're reaching the end of January my brain is finally accepting that it's a new year and I don't put down 2012 at the end of everything I have to date anymore. This, of course, means that it's as good a time as any to look back at the year that was and smile at how many great movies were released (it truly was a great 2012 at the movies) and to look forward to what 2013's going to look like in terms of cinema. |

[Thomas Oosthuizen] I like the number 13. Like with most other things, it is what we do with it that matters. Great companies never use the excuse of prevailing trends as a reason for them not to perform. They just leverage the circumstances better than their rivals. So, while economists will contemplate economic and social conditions in 2013, it is what we as marketers do that matters. |

 | AUTOMOTIVE  [Joy M] Applying for a car loan while confronting your bad credit history seems an unlikely financial mix. However, prevailing market condition, along with careful review of credit history and financial options make the task not only easier but also highly possible.
