As brands continue to go viral on TikTok owing to their clever use of original music, the role of sound in campaigns is becoming less of an afterthought and more strategically significant for standing out in a crowded digital landscape.

It's widely recognised that we are bombarded with fast-paced imagery in the modern world, whether it's social media videos, or digital billboards in city spaces. But there has been a similar explosion in sound, says advertising entrepreneur Michele Arnese. He thinks brands can only compete with the help of artificial intelligence (AI).

Sonic branding has seen incredible growth as a sector over the last five years, building from an incredibly niche field to a widely celebrated and recognized industry. The majority of the world’s top international brands rely on well-thought-out sound to both communicate and sell their products to consumers.

Oggi, però, serve molto di più: in un mondo full digital e always on, l’importanza della componente sonora e i benefici di una strategia audio in termini di riconoscibilità, differenziazione e vera e propria brand equity sono innumerevoli. Anche con l’aiuto dell’Intelligenza Artificiale.
