Why Now

How Buyers Find Brands Is Changing

Buyers in Thailand now find brands across Google, Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and the other platforms they use beside them, in Thai and in English. Annual strategy cycles were set up for a market that changed each quarter. The market now changes each week, so marketing leaders need a strategy that adjusts as the change happens.

Mark McDowell, founder and CEO of Primal

“The brands that lead the next decade will be the ones whose strategy is treated as a system that adapts, not an annual artefact.”

How Primal Strategy Works

Deep Dive

More On Marketing Strategy In The AI Era

Marketing strategy has reached the point where its own structure needs review. Buyers now research a category across several platforms. Google is still the main search engine, but a meaningful share of category questions now start in AI tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini, and more are answered inside Google AI Overviews before a buyer reaches a website. In Thailand those questions come in Thai and in English. 5 platforms, 5 ways of choosing sources, 1 buying decision. As a digital marketing consultant in Thailand, Primal covers all 5 in an integrated strategy.

FAQ

Your Marketing Strategy Questions Answered

What does Primal mean by “adaptive strategy”?

An adaptive strategy is an integrated operating approach that is reviewed through the engagement instead of being rewritten once a year. Positioning, message structure, channel mix and the measurement framework sit in one place, with rolling 90-day horizons and a quarterly look at what the market did and what should change.

How is AI changing the way brands set strategy?

Buyers now search on more platforms. Google is still the main one, but Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini now answer a meaningful share of category questions, and each one chooses its sources in a different way. A brand’s positioning has to hold on all of them. Audience behaviour now changes week to week instead of quarter to quarter, so the strategy needs reviewing more often too.

Who owns the strategy when you hire Primal as your marketing consultant?

A senior strategist leads the strategy from the design stage, working with brand, research and channel specialists. An integrated Primal team across search, paid media, creative, social and data then owns and delivers it, with senior practitioners brought in for major reviews. For brands in Thailand, the team works from our Bangkok office, with colleagues in Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.

How often does a Primal strategy update?

The strategy is reviewed in line with the engagement and the market. A quarterly review covers what changed in the market, what worked, what was retired and what should be adjusted. It is rewritten when major conditions change, not on a fixed monthly or annual schedule.

How does INSTINCT® inform strategy work?

INSTINCT® is Primal’s internal AI capability, based on a decade of marketing work across Asia Pacific. Senior practitioners use INSTINCT® to speed up the design and review stages of an engagement, drawing on what Primal has learned to produce clearer work in less time. Live data connections across our search, paid media and data teams are being added in stages.
