Marketing as we know it is undergoing a transformation, says a new study from Analyst Firm Forrester Research. The report, “The Future of Agency Relationships,” indicates that the industry is entering a phase of “adaptive marketing,” and that marketers must become more adaptable as new channels enter the market and create ways to and interact with customers. The report is based on interviews with execs at 25 agencies and 18 marketing companies.
