  • It’s the Holy Grail of marketing mix optimization in the bought-owned-earned media landscape—a virtual marketplace that makes it possible to evaluate the ROI of current marketing and media plans. Many marketers also are using this tool to simulate innovative marketing strategies and plans they have never tried before and forecast the likely results.

    In this webcast, Jeff Maloy will explore the most critical issues to building, using, and applying the results of a virtual marketplace including:

    • Establishing the marketing or business problem you are trying to solve, and identifying when these types of models are most appropriate.

    • Understanding and modeling how "agents" (e.g., consumers, businesses) behave, interact, and network.

    • Optimizing the current mix across the bought-owned-earned media landscape.

    •Testing alternative targeting, messaging, marketing, media, and competitive response scenarios using a dynamic simulation tool.

    Jeff will offer perspectives on the types of questions this tool can help marketers solve, and provide examples of how brands have used it for marketing mix optimization and improved ROI.

  • Google is doing everything it can to ensure remarkable content becomes the fuel at the heart of online digital marketing performance. The companies who are responding most effectively are responding by transforming their marketing teams into publishing powerhouses. But as a poll in our last webcast with Lee Odden showed, many companies are at the early "Stretch" phase of getting to grips with content marketing, so they need a more planned approach.

    To manage this shift marketers need to acquire new skills, and in particular a solid and logical content planning methodology that puts them in control.

    How do you put a plan in place? Stephen Bateman of strategic marketing consultancy Concentric Dots will take you through 6 steps to a solid content marketing plan, using a tried and tested framework that pulls together 6 cohesive marketing and publishing disciplines:

    1. Know your audience
    2. Audit your content
    3. Map your content to your buyer
    4. Create your editorial calendar
    5. Promote your content
    6. Measure your performance

  • Too many companies treat social media as if it's a one-way conversation. They set up Twitter and Facebook accounts and then start pumping out updates.

The new economy is about engagement and for that, you have to listen. More importantly, there's a real-time battle for understanding what's in the head of your consumer right now. Bryan will discuss a specific set of steps for listening effectively in order to build an effective marketing strategy. Real world examples will include how listening can help drive better reach, product development, improved operations, shorter sales cycles and lead generation.
