 | [Craig Wilson] Financial management website 22seven has been live for just a day and already it's facing its first serious challenge. |
 |  [Toby Shapshak] There is universal agreement that this is likely to be the year of the cloud, the mobile, Africa's emergence as a new economic region, the year of the tablet and the app economy too. Here are 12 tech trends for 2012.

 |  [Greg Whitfield] When reviewing loyalty programmes, which are proliferating, the key question is, "Are they adding value to the customers' experiences?" Here is what I think will make loyalty programmes stand out from the pack in 2012.

 |  [Martin Rose] If 2011 is anything to go by, 2012 is set to be a fast-moving, event-packed year. Social and consumer trends are developing and morphing faster than ever before and they all influence the way we think, interact, play and do business. So what are the top consumer trends we can expect in 2012?
|
 |  [Andre Redelinghuys] Anticipating this year's macro environment, most analysts are banking on a European recession. I think this will set the tone for another tough business year globally. With business tightening its belt and household income under pressure, frugality will once again be the driving consumer trend. We can dust off those reports on how to market to tight-budget consumers, not that they have gathered much dust.
|
 |  [Steve Cragg] What does 2012 hold in terms of marketing and advertising in the FMCG sector? It is going to be the year of helping consumers empower themselves through mobile and social media platforms, of turning over cents and creating value, in short, of making peace with technology and its influence on the behaviour of consumers, while taking steps to counter the continued effects of the Great Recession.

 | [Petros Kondos] Late 2005 saw the first malls in South Africa go live with Bluetooth as location-based marketing communication medium. The idea is to use Bluetooth to communicate relevant retail and mall communications to accepting customers' cellphones. |
 | [Chris Moerdyk: @chrismoerdyk] Walk up to the average South African retailer and whisper the magic words "customer service" and he'll react as though you stuffed a terminally venomous South American crotch eating spider down his shorts. And I really don't understand why. It isn't a stringent set of rules and regulations. In fact, customer service is nothing more than an extremely simple way of making lots of money. No more and no less. |

| [Chris Moerdyk: @chrismoerdyk] There are a lot of cute little phrases in marketing - most of which make those of us who have been in the business for a while want to go outside and throw up in the gladioli. But there are some buzzwords that have a huge amount of merit. Like "exceeding expectation". |
