    LOWE COUNSEL FUTURE SIGNS

    PROVIDE A WINDOW ONTO THE

    FUTURE DIRECTION OF THE

    MAINSTREAM, SIX MONTHS TO

    TWO YEARS AHEAD. THESE CAN

    REPRESENT MACRO SHIFTS IN

    CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR AND

    ATTITUDES OR MICRO SHIFTS

    RELATING TO A SPECIFIC

    CATEGORY, TERRITORY OR

    TARGET AUDIENCE GROUP.

    Our Future Signs series of publications

    provides colleagues and clients withimplications of how a specific Future

    Sign will impact consumer and

    category behaviour.

    Counsel monitors these changes as

    they emerge and charts their evolution

    and impact on the mainstream. Not only

    do Counsel Future Signs represent

    the evolution of existing macro trends,

    but they also represent the seeds of

    future mainstream attitudes and

    behaviour. In a world of information

    overload, access to accurate and

    concise trend information and the new

    ideas contained within offer valuable

    insight, which can create a business

    advantage. Being able to respond

    THE MARKETING INDUSTRY NOW

    ACCEPTS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF

    LEADING-EDGE INTELLIGENCE IN

    DETERMINING FUTURE CONSUMER

    TASTES AND BEHAVIOUR.

    Globalisation has created an

    environment where new ideas and

    behaviours are generated and adopted

    on a global level. Certain cities and

    countries act as leaders of emerging

    trends and can provide insight into

    those yet to enter the mainstream.

    A combination of these forces and thereality that most product development

    and marketing planning processes are

    timed in years rather than months

    means brands and marketers need

    to be in touch with emerging Future

    Signs in po pular culture.

    Finding a way of seeing into

    the future has become the aim of

    brands wanting to build successful

    consumer relationships. Being able

    to provide consumers with what they

    want, when they want it, communicated

    to them in a way that is relevant to

    them is one of the key challenges

    for contemporary brands. To do

    this successfully they need tobeone step ahead.

    A COMBINATION OF SPEED OF CHANGE AND

    TECHNOLOGY-FOCUSED ALWAYS ON CULTURE

    IS FORCING US TO PLACE AN INCREASING

    EMPHASIS ON WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW.

    As Einstein discovered, our relationship to time is

    relative and subject to change depending on ourvelocity. There is a perception that time moves

    more quickly in the present than it did in the past.

    Digital theorist Douglas Rushkoff calls the

    phenomenon Present Shock to explain how

    modern society has re-orientated itself around the

    present. Our continual exposure to u nlimited and

    unfiltered data comes at a price. The digital world

    gives us so much information so fast, we can no

    longer turn it into knowledge, much less wisdom,

    resulting in a diminishing ability to contemplate

    anything that is not happening now. Forty years

    ago Alvin Toffler wrote Future Shock, which

    helped define the age; now we are living in a state

    of Present Shock. Today it is all about the n ow

    If the end of the twentieth century can becharacterized by futurism, the twenty-rst

    century can be dened by presentism.[1]

    - Douglas Rushkoff, Present Shock

    THE ACCELERATION OF CULTURE IS NOW

    SO RAPID IT MEANS WE ARE CONSTANTLY

    ADAPTING TO LIVING WITH CHANGE AND

    UNCERTAINTY. WHAT TOOK GENERATIONS

    TO ACCOMPLISH IS NOW ACHIEVED IN LESSTHAN A DECADE. EVERYTHING IS QUICKER,

    FASTER, MORE NOW.

    Predictive text and search mean we no longer

    have to finish off sentences or even thoughts.

    In the last ten years emails and websites have

    given way to pings with blogs giving way to

    Twitter feeds and Snapchat.

    The next ten years will see continuing increases

    in job market instability, housing bubbles, Twitter

    uprisings, population migration and climate change

    in both developed and emerging markets.

    According to The New York Times a graduate

    in 2007 could expect to change jobs 11 times,

    and their skill set at least three times in the course

    of their professional career. When the future is

    so fast and unpredictable its not surprisingthat

    people are choosing to focus o n the present.

    While Moores Law (the continuing increase in

    computer processing ability) and the nu mber

    or patents are all increasing, product lifecycles

    continue to shorten. During the last few years

    dating has evolved into a hook up culture and

    pop-ups are now a permanent fixture in the

    retail landscape. Everywhere we look there are

    examples of things speeding up and cycles being

    condensed. Societys techno-social systemsare becoming ever faster and more computer-

    orientated. Far from simply generating faster

    versions of existing behaviour, this speed-up is

    generating new behaviours as humans lose the

    ability to comprehend and intervene in real time.

    Huge profits in stock trades are now dependent

    on having millisecond advantages related to

    information and prices. Few people have the time

    or the capacity to think abou t the long term.

    Our ability to look forward is that much

    harder because of the acceleration of

    change that has taken place throughout

    the 20th century, but particularly in the lastcouple of decades as digital technology

    has changed the speed and scale of

    human communication.[7]

    and Cinematic Arts, USC, writing in Forbes magazine

    FOMOPHENOMENON(Fear Of Missing Out)

    THE HUGE INCREASE IN SOURCES OF ALWAYS

    ON INFORMATION GENERATED BY SOCIAL

    NETWORKS IS TURNING PEOPLE INTO

    INFORMATION JUNKIES.

    FoMo Fear Of Missing Out can be defined as the

    anxiety that an exciting or interesting event may

    currently be happening elsewhere. According to a

    study into FoMo by the University of Essex in the

    UK: Twitter followers and retweets provide the

    indirect measures people use to quantify their

    importance and the reach of their personal brand.[17]

    People seek out the new and the now to alleviate

    the fear of missing out and to acquire status through

    social media.

    The ability to take any thought or picture andimmediately bring it to the attention of an expansive

    web of friends and acquaintances is the essence

    of the social media experience. This is now a way

    of life for the generation born in the late 80s and

    through the 90s. Friendships are formed through

    these connections and shared experiences to the

    extent where it is hard to imagine life without a

    readily available source of reassurance.

    WHILE THE IDEA OF INSTANT GRATIFICATION IS NOT

    A NEW CONCEPT, DEVELOPMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY

    ARE DRIVING PEOPLE TO BECOME INCREASINGLY

    DEMANDING AND IMPATIENT.

    Smart phone apps now eliminate the wait for a cab,

    date, or a table at a hot restaurant. Movies and TV shows

    stream in seconds. The demand for instant is seeping

    into every corner of our lives. Amazon, Net-A-Porter and

    Wal-Mart are all embracing this growing impatience by

    offering more same-day delivery services.

    According to Narayan Janakiraman, Assistant Professorof Marketing, University of Texas: Our expectation of

    instant has become faster, and as a result, our patience

    is thinner.[12]

    Unlimited access to information and the desire for

    external validation is altering behaviour. A limitless

    source of knowledge and opinion has expanded the

    possibilities for many, but this information and sensory

    overload is affecting our personalities in ways that are

    not always obvious. We are increasingly living with

    what neuroeconomists call temporal discounting.

    Our brains are becoming hard-wired to crave instant

    gratification. When we buy something we want, it

    triggers our pleasure sensors. Conversely, participating

    in more long-term thinking and behaviour, such as

    saving, has declined significantly over the last 30 years.

    The US Department of Commerce Bureau of Economic

    Analysis found that Americans personal saving rates

    the percentage of disposable income saved declined

    to 3.6 percent in 2012, down from 9.7 percent in 1982.

    Immediate gratication is the default response.

    Its difcult to overcome the urges and (learn) to be

    patient and wait for things to come over time. [13]

    THE IDEA OF BEING PRESENT, BEING IN

    THE HERE AND NOW IS INCREASINGLY BEING

    USED TO DESCRIBE A POSITIVE RESPONSE TO

    INFORMATION OVERLOAD AND THE CONSTANT

    DISTRACTIONS OF DIGITAL COMMUNICATION.

    In a world of constant distractions, learning to

    live in the moment can be valuable in promoting

    wellbeing and have a positive effect on society.

    Our growing interest in living in the moment can

    be seen in relation to the mindfulness movement.

    Psychologists define mindfulness as a state of

    non-distraction characterised by full engagement

    with our current task or situation. By learning to

    focus on the now, we are able to free ourselves from

    past regrets and future concerns, which has been

    proven to have a positive effect on mental health.

    A recent study published in the Psychological Science

    Journal explored the impact of mind wanderingand while it may not be a seriou s issue in many

    circumstances, in tasks requiring attention, the

    ability to stay focused is crucial. Pop psychologist

    Eckhart Tolles bestselling book The Power of Now

    is based around this idea and reflects many of the

    central themes of Buddhist teaching, specifically

    that mindfulness can lead to enlightenment.

    Spontaneity is also seen as an aspirational state of

    mindassociated with confidence and status. Many

    see having the ability to act spontaneously as an

    indicator of having both time and money. The growth

    of mindfulness can also be seen in relation to the

    increase in spontaneous behaviour, partly enabled

    by technology. Studies show that more people

    around the world are seizing the moment by

    taking last-minute holidays.

    According to a 2013 study by the online travel

    company Expedia, nearly all US adults (92%)

    consider themselves at least a little spontaneous.

    Nearly half of US adults admitted to impulse

    shopping (49%), or paid it forward by treating

    someone else with something kind (49%) while

    approximately one third took last-minute trips

    out of town (30%). [23]

    IS YOLO A POSITIVE AFFIRMATION OF CARPE

    DIEM (SEIZE THE DAY) OR AN EXCUSE TO

    EMBRACE IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOUR?

    Either way YOLO (You only live once) has become

    a shorthand mantra that defines youth on a certain

    level. YOLO is being used as a battle cry an d

    means of justifying youthful, crazy and sometimes

    irresponsible behaviour. It is abo ut celebrating

    being young in its purest sense.

    YOLO, as its currently used in popular culture,

    represents a modern update on the tradition

    beginning with carpe diem. The ancient Roman

    poet Horaces famous phrase is about seizing

    the day. YOLO is about justifying it. The yolo.com

    website says: YOLO should not be an excuse to do

    something YOLO stimulates you to do something

    crazy, something youve never done before.[18]

    Interestingly FOMO and YOLO represent both

    driver and response to the cultural desire torefocus on the present.

    Usage of YOLO has been propelled by multiple

    references in global pop music. It reflects both the

    desire for living in the moment and the compulsive

    need to share that define the post-millennial

    generation. Interestingly #YOLO moments, by

    nature of using the social media hash tag, are all

    about sharing. They provide a way of making

    everyday decisions and activity significant.

    Jenny Garrett in The Huffington Post says that YOLO

    moments are often deemed as rare, significant,

    life-changing events to be grasped with both hands.

    Instead she sees them as frequent, omnipresent

    events that we choose to make meaningful. [19]

    The #YOLO terminology has already become part

    of youthspeak, appearing on college application

    forms and spawning numerous parodies, most

    notably from US TV show Saturday Night Live.

    WE ARE SEEING BRANDS AND MARKETERS RESPONDING

    TO THE GROWING NEED FOR PEOPLE TO REGAIN

    CONTROL AND BETTER MANAGE THEIR PERSONAL

    TIME WITH A HOST OF LIFE OPTIMISING SOLUTIONS.

    A recent survey by Wolff Olins and Flamingo identifiesthis new attitude towards time. It says: People are looking

    for ways to control the flow and get things when they

    want them, and on their terms.[35]

    We are seeing the development of apps that analyse

    personal and environmental data and help people to

    prioritise certain tasks, reward positive behaviour and

    suggest optimal times to conduct certain activities.

    Foresee a new app created by BorderLeap suggests

    optimal times of the week for particular activities. Using

    a number of metrics such as weather, time of day, location

    and learned user preferences for particularly activities such

    as running, hiking, cycling, walking the dog, swimming,

    gardening and other outdoor callings, the app is then able

    to advise the best time and a place to indulge in them.

    Meanwhile, Offtime takes a fresh perspective on personal

    time management. This growing trend for tech-free timeout

    is a theme we explored in more detail in our 2013 Future

    Sign Esc. The Offtime app manages and filters incoming

    calls and messages in a curated and customised way. Users

    can choose to block all work emails or calls on weekends

    to allow them to focus on important real-life stuff. The

    application responds automatically to callers, and also lists

    all the missed activities on the phone for later reference.

    Another interesting app applies the principles of instant

    gratification and behavioural economics to make long

    term activities like losing weight or saving more enjoyable

    and rewarding. ImpulseSave encourages individuals to

    save through an app, which tracks spending and sends

    congratulatory messages when users cut costs. This

    supports behaviour that contributes to a long-term

    goal and provides immediate feedback.

    Its instant gratication that were giving

    People have a need for immediacy that they

    dont normally see when theyre saving money.[36]

    LIVING IN AN INCREASINGLY ON DEMAND

    WORLD WHERE EVERYTHING NEWS,

    PHOTOS, MUSIC, MOVIES IS AVAILABLE AT

    THE PUSH OF A BUTTON, CONSUMERS NOW

    WANT THE SAME AMENITIES AVAILABLE TO

    THEM OFFLINE

    Flash sales and online limited edition/time-sensitive offers are becoming a permanent

    fixture in the retail landscape, reflecting the

    trend of instant gratification. Online sales

    channels have been particularly successful in

    exploiting consumer urgency to convert sales.

    Retailers are realising there is profit in impatience,

    expanding same-day delivery services to cater

    for a generation of consumers who want it now.

    Wal-Mart and eBay are currently challenging

    Amazon in the category by offering same-day

    delivery. In certain areas, shoppers can place

    an order by 11 a.m. and, for an $8.99 fee plus

    99 cents per item, have it that day.

    Additional services like Instacart available in

    San Francisco, and new app Pocket Shop inLondon offer same-day delivery of groceries

    from major supermarkets. These services are

    powered by a local network of pedestrian pickers

    who do the carrying on foot in an attempt to

    avoid traffic, cut carbon emissions, and avoid

    incurring high costs for the bu siness.

    Creating urgency can affect consumer behaviour.

    Time-sensitive messages can make us feel

    strangely optimistic and even important. Times

    a wasting, you only live once, and you have

    agency to push back against the frantic

    busyness of todays world. Work by Scott D.

    Swain and Lisa J. Abendroth of Boston University

    and Richard Hanna of Boston College discovered

    that advertising campaigns that create a sense

    of urgency actually increase purchases.

    The continuing global success of pop-up retail

    demonstrates the appeal of temporary, limited

    edition spaces and products. UK fashion

    designer Henry Holland launched a mobile

    flagship store created to celebrate the launch

    of House of Hollands e-commerce site. The

    designer transformed a traditional ice-cream van

    named Mr Quiffy after the designers famously

    voluminous hairstyle into a multicoloured touring

    pop-up shop selling a limited edition collection.

    Pop-up shops are proliferating. Theyre cheaper

    than the alternative, easy to execute and supermobile, with the ability to roam from city to city,

    hitting only the spots where theyll have the most

    impact. More and more established brands are

    using pop-ups to generate interest and cater to

    consumers desire for the new. Starbucks recently

    opened its first pop-up only coffee bar in Tokyo

    in an attempt to challenge the fierce competition

    in the Japanese coffee market. Pop-ups offer

    brands the chance to experiment with unique

    concepts and ground-breaking design.

    The industry is evolving all the time and

    initially opening as a pop-up works for us.

    It might not work forever but it is a model

    we have chosen and it allows us to dip our

    toes into the water and test it before wetake any risks.[53]

    How can you help people to make the most of thepresent, be spontaneous and enjoy the moment?

    Consider incorporating time-sensitive, responsive orreactive brand communications as a way of drivingengagement, social media reach and cultural relevancy.

    Are there specific events or naturally occurring socialphenomena that could provide seeds for consumerand brand conversations?

    Integrate live social media content into traditionalmedia campaigns to enhance immediacy and relevance.

    Could you develop or partner with an app likeForesee that enables people to optimise theirlives more efficiently?

    Use instant gratification to reward long-term activity.

    Think about the benefits of encouraging people todisconnect from digital technology for set periodsof time.

    Embrace the creative potential of temporary messagingapps like Vine and Snapchat that encourage people tobe more experimental and spontaneous. Theyre greatfor time-sensitive messaging and to communicate asense of urgency.

    Could you encourage people to temporarily turnoff their digital devices in order to better participatein live social activities?

    Recognise the growing power of being present -how could you help people to reduce distractionsand live more in the moment?

    Being able to participate in spontaneous activities/travelremains a dream for many. How could you facilitate thisfor your consumers?
