Disadvantages 1. Competition What makes all of these technological developments less than perfect is that they are available to everyone. If only one promoter had access to advanced technology, he would certainly have a tremendous advantage. In a world that is saturated with such technology, the result is a marketing arms race in which each business is striving for the next edge over its competitors. This level of competition can become expensive and stressful as new machines and software are constantly being purchased and employees are constantly being trained in new practices. 2. Homogenization As marketers all hone in on the fastest, most efficient and most effective way of getting public attention, the result is a growing homogenization in both products and the way that they are promoted. Because digital technologies make replication so easy, no marketer can have an edge on the competition for very long, because others will copy whatever is effective. An advertising environment in which everything looks the same makes it difficult for consumers to distinguish between products, and increases public cynicism about the process of marketing itself.
