Google Proved Linear Marketing is Dead.
We Built What's Next.

Consumer behavior is cyclical. Your marketing should be too.

The Death of the Linear Sales Funnel

Google's groundbreaking "Messy Middle" research revealed that traditional linear marketing funnels no longer exist. Consumer behavior has fundamentally changed, and businesses must adapt or become irrelevant.

"What happens between trigger and purchase is not linear, and there is a complicated web of touchpoints that differs from person to person."

- Google's Messy Middle Research

How People Actually Make Decisions Today

Exploration

An expansive activity of acquiring new information

Evaluation

A narrower activity of selecting among available options

People loop through these twin modes of exploration and evaluation, repeating the cycle as many times as they need to make a purchase decision. This happens in cycles, not linear steps.

Real-World Cyclical Behavior

Every customer has natural buying cycles. When you spam them during their "off" periods, they block you to protect their sanity. When you align with their rhythm, they welcome your content.

The choice is simple: respect their cycle and stay in the conversation, or ignore it and get blocked forever.

Europe Trip Planning

Intense Focus Period: 3-6 months of obsessive research

What They Want: Daily inspiration, tips, deals, recommendations

After the Trip: Zero interest in travel content for months

Traditional marketing keeps sending daily travel emails forever, leading to unsubscribes.

Smart approach: Recognize the cycle and pause until their next trip planning phase.

Home Renovation Research

Intense Focus Period: 2-4 months of project planning

What They Want: Ideas, trends, product comparisons, contractor recommendations

After Completion: Want to enjoy their space without constant renovation ideas

Traditional marketing sends constant renovation content, becoming noise.

Smart approach: Quarterly inspiration instead of daily interruption.

New Parent Learning

Intense Focus Period: 9 months of pregnancy + first year

What They Want: Week-by-week development info, product recommendations, tips

After Child Grows: Shift to different parenting phases and needs

Traditional marketing sends baby content to parents of teenagers.

Smart approach: Evolve content with the child's development stages.

Career Transition Research

Intense Focus Period: 6-12 months of skill building and job searching

What They Want: Learning resources, industry insights, networking opportunities

After New Job: Focus shifts to performing well in new role

Traditional marketing continues career-change content indefinitely.

Smart approach: Transition to professional development content.

The DigitalArchitect Solution: Cyclical Marketing

Instead of interrupting these cycles, become part of them

Cycle Recognition

Customers tell you when they're entering a research phase for your category

Intensity Matching

They may match your communication frequency to their research intensity

Respectful Pausing

They may pause your marketing when they're not in buying mode

Smart Resumption

They can schedule your marketing to resume when they're ready for their next cycle

Leveraging Consumer Psychology

Google's research identified six key cognitive biases that influence purchase decisions. Our platform helps you apply these ethically:

Social Proof

Recommendations and reviews from others can be very persuasive

Scarcity Bias

As availability decreases, desirability increases

Authority Bias

Being swayed by experts and trusted sources

Category Heuristics

Key specifications simplify purchase decisions

Power of Now

Longer wait times weaken propositions

Power of Free

Free gifts can be powerful motivators

The Future of Marketing is Cyclical

Traditional marketing assumes people are always in buying mode. Google's research proves they're not. DigitalArchitect is the first platform built for how people actually make decisions - in cycles, not funnels.
