Launching Points of Growth
A Fresh Voice in Marketing
On July 14, 2025, Yango Ads introduced “Points of Growth,” a podcast exploring the transformative role of artificial intelligence in advertising. Hosted by Neha Dawar, Business Development Manager at Yango Ads Thailand, the series dives into how AI can enhance human creativity rather than replace it. Aimed at Southeast Asia’s marketing community, the podcast seeks to spark meaningful conversations about the evolving industry.
Balancing Technology and Authenticity
Addressing Industry Challenges
The podcast tackles a key challenge in modern advertising: creating genuine consumer connections in an era dominated by AI-driven tools. Neha Dawar emphasizes the need for authentic dialogue about the industry’s rapid changes, especially in Thailand, where traditional media still holds cultural significance. By framing AI as a tool to amplify creativity, “Points of Growth” offers a balanced perspective on technology’s role in marketing strategies.
Diverse Industry Insights
Exploring Key Sectors
The debut season features six episodes covering critical sectors like tourism, fashion, real estate, retail, and gaming. Each episode brings together industry experts to share practical insights, avoiding theoretical jargon. For instance, Deniz Chiftchi, a Senior Monetization Expert, highlighted a campaign that used AI to create 600,000 personalized videos, demonstrating how technology, paired with human insight, drives impactful results.
Practical Tools for Marketers
Navigating Effective Solutions
The series also addresses practical concerns, such as selecting the right advertising tools for goals like brand awareness or lead generation. Product Marketing Manager Daria Gordeeva and Southeast Asia Account Manager Rifki Novrian guide listeners through decision-making processes, helping marketers distinguish between valuable tools and costly distractions. This focus on actionable advice makes the podcast a go-to resource for professionals.
Amplifying Regional Voices
Inviting Local Expertise
“Points of Growth” stands out by prioritizing Southeast Asian perspectives, with plans to feature local marketing leaders and creatives in future episodes. This commitment reflects an understanding that successful advertising requires tailoring global technologies to local cultures and consumer behaviors. By opening the mic to Thailand’s vibrant marketing community, the podcast aims to foster a collaborative industry dialogue.
