In one of the latest studies from the CMO Council, Brand Automation for Local Activation, 59 percent of marketers believe that local marketing is essential to driving business growth and profitability. But as marketers work to activate, coordinate and collaborate across their increasingly complex network of sales channels, the reality is that few marketers are truly confident in their ability to activate local audiences. Only 7 percent feel they have a highly evolved campaign, complete with measurement and analytics.

Marketers are struggling to maintain brand image and consistency across complex networks, challenged to roll out global campaigns across multi-national or multi-lingual localized campaigns, and are at a loss as to how to measure the impact and effectiveness of these campaigns. So how can marketers more effectively activate local customers to either engage with a local store, vendor, partner or even individual agent? What are the required channels, measures and resources that combine to create a comprehensive strategy to optimize customer activation?

In our upcoming webcast, entitled “Turning Local Trends Into Transactions,” the topics that will be discussed include:

• Highlight findings from the "Brand Automation for Local Activation " report
• Provide insights into the key trends in local customer engagement and the tools and technologies that are reshaping the local marketing landscape
• Share best practices on how driving channel and field sales effectiveness in expanding social, mobile and local marketing world
