Vietnam’s digital marketing landscape is shifting away from traditional advertising, with brands prioritizing social media, influencer-driven campaigns, and AI-powered automation. Digital platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube have now become primary channels for brand engagement. With the surge of internet usage and digital growth, it is estimated that 53% of the population has shopped online using social networking platforms, such as Facebook and Zalo, or e-commerce platforms, such as Lazada, Shopee, and Tiki. This transition has pushed brands to invest more in short-form video content, interactive live streaming, and AI-powered ad targeting to achieve measurable ROI and maximize audience reach.
The country’s growing reliance on influencers is another key trend shaping its marketing landscape. Similar to what happens globally, brands in Vietnam are moving away from mega-influencers and celebrities, instead prioritizing nano- and micro-influencers who offer more authentic engagement and stronger consumer trust. Industries such as beauty, automotive, and consumer goods are leveraging these influencers to drive visibility and conversions, capitalizing on their niche audiences and higher credibility.
“Our expansion in Vietnam comes at a pivotal moment as the country’s digital economy accelerates and brands seek more sophisticated marketing solutions to stay ahead. We aim to provide localized expertise while seamlessly integrating global best practices as businesses prepare for major seasonal campaigns,” closed Risa.
