Microsoft: Adapting to the Fast-Changing
Digital Marketing Environment
But as the 21st century continued, technology
changes forced Microsoft to change and adapt
to the move by consumers to digital devices.
Microsoft is moving from being known as a
software company. It developed the Surface
tablet, purchased Nokia to gain access to
smartphone technology, and now offers
numerous digital and cloud services.
Microsoft: Adapting to the Fast-Changing
Digital Marketing Environment
Even by 2000, personal computers were the
engine driving the tech industry. Microsoft was the
dominant company, as its Windows operating
system and Office productivity suite were installed
on nearly all computers sold.
Then, the new digital devices and technologies
drastically changed the high-tech marketing
environment.
Microsoft: Adapting to the Fast-Changing
Digital Marketing Environment
• iPods and smartphones led to e-readers, tablets, and Internet-
connected TVs and game consoles. The problem for Microsoft is
that most of these devices don’t use its old products.
• Microsoft lagged in the digital environment, a position with
which it was not familiar. To recover its leadership position,
Microsoft is working to become a full-line digital devices and
services company that connects people to communication,
productivity, entertainment, and each other.
Chapter 3 Chapter Overview
This chapter shows that marketing does not operate in a vacuum but
rather in a complex and changing environment. Other actors in this
environment—suppliers, intermediaries, customers, competitors,
publics, and others—may work with or against the company. Major
environmental forces—demographic, economic, natural, technological,
political, and cultural—shape marketing opportunities, pose threats,
and affect the company’s ability to build customer relationships. To
develop effective marketing strategies, you must first understand the
environment in which marketing operates.

Viewers in New York, Denver, Boston, Atlanta, Miami, and other major
markets can ditch their high-cost cable and satellite television service and
receive twenty-four channels and DVR space to record shows for as little as
$8–$12 per month.
Marketing Ethics: Television Isn’t What It Used to Be
Moreover, Aereo may pick up low-power stations not carried by cable and
satellite providers, letting advertisers expose their ads to “eyeballs” they
wouldn’t normally get. This also helps the smaller broadcasters because cable
and satellite providers do not usually carry these stations. A Utah judge didn’t
see it that way, however, and ruled that Aereo’s business model is
“indistinguishable from that of a cable company.”
The case has gone all the way to the Supreme Court. One expert says the case
is really about old versus new technology, about “rabbit ears meets the cloud.”
Rabbit ears refers to the old television antennas that received broadcast signals
over the air for free (once the only way to receive TV programming).
