The Future of Digital Marketing: Research Insights and AI Innovation

Digital marketing research is at the heart of what we do. In a rapidly evolving landscape, we believe that staying ahead means not just adapting to change — but actively shaping it. Our research initiatives are designed to uncover how businesses can use digital marketing and AI tools more effectively, with a special focus on supporting small businesses and emerging entrepreneurs.

Building Small Business Resilience (BSBR) Project

One of our major initiatives, the Building Small Business Resilience (BSBR) research project, explores how small businesses can leverage digital marketing strategies to survive and thrive in a competitive environment.

Through extensive surveys, interviews, and digital audits, the BSBR project identified the key challenges facing small business owners — from limited resources and digital skill gaps to the overwhelming pace of technology change. Our findings highlighted the most effective strategies for small businesses to:

  • Boost online visibility

  • Strengthen customer loyalty

  • Optimize their digital marketing spend

  • Implement practical AI tools for marketing efficiency

The insights from the BSBR project have helped create action-oriented guides, workshops, and personalized consulting pathways specifically designed to empower small business owners with practical, research-driven digital marketing strategies.

Exploring the Next Frontier: Marketing Tools and AI Research

Building on the momentum of BSBR, we are excited to announce our upcoming research project: a deep dive into how AI marketing tools are transforming business success.

This new study will explore:

  • How small businesses and marketers are currently using AI tools (and where the gaps are)

  • What AI marketing innovations are making the biggest impact (automation, personalization, predictive analytics, etc.)

  • Which tools are the most accessible and practical for small business owners

  • Ethical considerations and best practices for using AI in marketing

Participants in the study will gain early access to findings, personalized insights into their digital marketing strategies, and hands-on exposure to emerging AI technologies that can provide a real competitive edge.

This research isn’t just academic. It’s focused on real-world applications — providing clear, actionable recommendations that business owners can immediately put to work in their marketing efforts.
