Missed the first wave of digital wealth? Here's why it may not matter…

There's a major shift taking place in advertising. And it has some shrewd investors chomping at the bit to get rich!
You see, gone may be the days of finding customers through traditional channels like Radio, TV, and Print.
Digital advertising is quickly becoming the go-to channel for marketers looking to connect with consumers worldwide.
In fact, over 65% of the $15.7 billion spent on advertising in Australia in 2021, will be spent on digital advertising (social media, mobile ads, websites, etc).
The speed of the market takeover has been simply astonishing.
And what's even more impressive, eMarketer says that out of that chunk, over 80% of all money spent on digital ads, will go to just two companies:
Google… and Facebook.
With their pinpoint accuracy and massive scale, we believe that other advertising channels like Radio, Television, and Print, just can't compete.
And as you can imagine, that early dominance in the digital advertising space contributed to incredible outperformance. Early investors in the old guard of digital advertising have made a fortune — racking up 600%+, 3,600%+, even 180,000%+ gains!
But here's the thing…
Those giants already receive the lion's share of the ad revenue — over 80%, remember?
As great as these companies are, for investors looking to make a fortune…how much more can be squeezed from those behemoths?
Probably, not nearly as much wealth as investors could have seen ten or twenty years ago.
So, if you missed out on getting a piece of those Facebook or Google returns… I have some good news for you.
We think the new money may not be in the 80%…but it's in what The Motley Fool calls "The Forgotten 20".
These are all the companies receiving the other 20% of the digital advertising windfall. A total market value that equates to over $2 billion AUD– for now.
You see, these companies are creating tremendous advertising value on their digital platforms…but aren't as big, just yet.
And that could mean potentially a massive growth runway for early investors!
Like this one tiny social media company.
Our team discovered that right now, nearly 20% of all internet users in Australia were engaged with its platform!
For context, Facebook – one of the largest digital advertising platforms – has just over 50% of internet users within Australia.
And I have no doubt that as this still-small social media company starts raking in the advertising money… well, let's just say I don't think it will be in the "Forgotten 20" for much longer.
Because while this "Forgotten 20" company may be flying under many people's radars, it's still growing.
So, if you're an investor looking to make a fortune on the next wave of digital wealth, I think you can't afford to ignore this hidden gem.
