76% of businesses say marketing is becoming more challenging…

From the rise of AI search and changing customer behaviour to increasing advertising costs, and new expectations around content, video and digital performance, marketing is changing fast.

That’s why LOCALiQ’s 5th Annual State of Marketing Survey is back and we want your voice included.

More than 500 businesses shared their insights last year, helping us build a clearer picture of the UK’s digital marketing landscape. Those findings helped businesses benchmark their performance, understand emerging trends and navigate a period of rapid change.

This year, we’re going further. We want to understand how UK businesses are using AI in marketing, adapting to changes in search and customer behaviour, measuring performance, and deciding where to invest as they plan for 2027.
