What exactly is this a list of, you ask? This is just a small snapshot of what is out there in the ever-changing world of marketing.

Over the past 10 years, there has not been a single other business function that has changed more than the marketing function. Just think, with every innovative technological advance, there is at least one coinciding marketing endeavor to go a long with it. With every change in society, there is a coinciding marketing endeavor that goes along with it. With every economic change, there is a coinciding marketing endeavor that goes along with it. Ever-changing. But there's even more bad news. With each increase in marketing channels comes an increase in marketing communications which, in turn, creates a tougher, more marketing-averse consumer mind to crack. This means, your current marketing tactics are becoming obsolete.
Many questions will arise now: How do I stay on top of these marketing trends? How can I learn all these marketing strategies while providing/producing a high quality service/product? What marketing functions do I focus on for maximum exposure? Is my business going to fail because of an over-communicated society?
Hope is on the Horizon
There is hope on the horizon. As with every action, there is an equally powerful reaction. Luckily, for you and for many small- to medium-sized businesses, there is an answer to these marketing woes. There is a new wave in how marketing is being performed. It's a little thing you may have heard of.Outsourcing. There is an emerging trend in the Marketing Industry that is producing, what's called, "Outsourced Marketing Departments." These are basically full-service marketing agencies (complete with all research, planning, design, execution, and evaluation capabilities) dedicated to being complete marketing departments for small- to medium-sized businesses.
These Outsourced Marketing Departments partner with their clients to become a part of the client company and become an integral part of how business is completed. One of these companies is Miser Advertising and Marketing, a Carlsbad, CA based, outsourced marketing agency. Paul Miser, President of Miser Advertising and Marketing, says, "With the extremely dynamic marketing environment and the competitive nature of business, it is hard for small- to medium-sized businesses to sustain their business, let alone grow. We, as with other outsourced marketing agencies, give our clients the freedom and time to focus on their core services, while we perform all their marketing efforts to ensure effective marketing campaigns to help the business grow. We stay abreast on the industry, so they don't have to."
Marketing has just become the newest business function to be outsourced and should be a great alternative to your current marketing strategy if you are seeing lackluster results or find yourself overwhelmed with the different marketing options out there. With the increase in competitive landscapes, companies need detailed and dire focus to perform their core service at the highest level possible which is the main reason outsourcing is becoming more and more accepted and practiced.
