With buyers increasingly self-educating using the web and devices, sales and marketing techniques are evolving. Hear from trusted experts on how to generate demand online. Includes real-life case studies, ROI insights and actionable tips.

The rise of mobile and the multi-screen world puts the consumer firmly at the centre of the digital universe. Content needs to be more personal and more relevant as consumers come to regard traditional advertising and marketing tactics as intrusive and ineffective. Marketers now have to ask themselves some crucial questions: 

•       Is my content successfully driving more traffic?
•       Are those visitors actually engaging with my content?
•       Which traffic sources provide the most engaged and highest-converting customers?
•       Which of my content is driving positive ROI?
•       How can I improve my content to meet sales or conversion targets?
•       How can I accurately measure which content is most effective and evaluate why some content performs better than others?

In this webinar, Duncan Clark will explain how you can tackle these questions to ensure your content marketing pulls its weight and delivers against business objectives.

Optimising content marketing performance in a multiscreen world

Partners are incredibly valuable when it comes to B2B marketing; they can unlock your marketing potential by accessing a wide customer base. But there are also some challenges: keeping control of content and channels while maximising the impact of your initiatives. 

In this webinar we will show you how Microsoft used their partners to amplify their content through social media.

Partners in Crime - How Microsoft Used Their Sales Partners to Engage Customers

Think about it - your customers have a very intimate relationship with their mobiles.  Beware!

It’s amazing how many marketers still enthuse about their “mobile first” approach to digital.  Sure, many of you will have over half your web traffic from mobile devices, and most of your social engagement of smartphones.
But what about the unique mobile customer?  

Drawing on case studies from Amazon, Clever Cards, FT.com, Selfridges and Starbucks, this 45 minute session looks at how to deliver the best mobile customer experience in your sector.  

- Create a great first impression - any screen, any time, any place 
- Wow the early adopters - win the hearts & minds of your greatest fans and resellers
- Develop exceptional UX - across sites, apps 
- Make it personal, keep them coming back for more  - across the whole customer journey

Mobile Customer Experience - One Careful User, or one size fits all?

Consumers are constantly bombarded across multiple channels with branded messages, so how can the gamification of the mobile customer experience help brands to increase engagement, loyalty and improve customer value when most consumers have already tuned out?  The Economist Intelligence Unit showed that companies share a conviction that cultivating a high level of customer engagement is now a key strategic challenge. 

This panel discussion explores whether Gamification, as an engagement technique, can help Marketers to secure consumer mind share, giving their brands a competitive advantage, or is it just a passing gimmick that won’t deliver against this strategic goal?

Is Mobile Gamification the Future for Customer Engagement?

Sales is from Mars and Marketing from Venus

Do you ever wonder whether your digital marketing campaigns are really working? 

In our recent research project, ‘Emerging Trends in Digital Marketing’, First Point Research & Consulting and Sitecore surveyed 330 marketing managers… and the results tell a pretty worrying tale.

When we dug deeper, we discovered that the majority of these respondents were senior marketers with over 15 years’ experience.

So, to sum-up most marketing managers:

- are spending most of their budgets on apparently ‘overrated’ offline channels
- aren’t tracking ROI correctly (or, in some cases, at all!)

BUT

- think they’re doing a darn good job when it comes to digital marketing…
- If you'd like to learn more about these insights and many others watch this webinar today.

Leveraging the power of Marketing Playbooks and Marketing Automation

When thinking about marketing automation everyone jumps to software purchases. But what happens after the purchase? Does this big piece of software solve all you marketing problems?

Most marketers find that the biggest challenges with marketing automation come from implementing and running it. From creating the right content to ensuring and the lead flow is strong enough, marketers sometimes find it hard to find results after automation.

Join this panel of experts as they discuss what it takes to make automation a success in your business.

Life after Automation

Big Data, Marketing Automation, Real-time Personalisation... technology has permeated every aspect of modern marketing. The impacts of this intricate relationship are complex: the CMO has to rise to an understanding of technology much greater than before, and the CTO has other departments requiring massive technology investments.

Join this live video panel session to get an under the hood perspective on this relationship and what the future holds of modern marketers and technology experts alike.

CTO vs CMO - The Impact of Technology in Marketing

According to Gartner, 80 percent of companies around the world only measure results. Often they don’t know what impacted these results, or what is best done to improve them going forward. That’s because there’s a major gap between the information executives want and the information they get.

For all of the good that data can do for businesses though, there’s one major issue that it presents: information overload. Many companies try to focus on too many different metrics without focusing on those that truly matter.
Want better results? Take a closer look at your leading indicators. In this webinar, we’ll show you how your company can do it best.

The Metrics that Matter

12 Golden Rules of Customer Advocacy

IBM found that over 80% of the 'C' suite feel under-prepared for the data revolution ('C' survey '13).  This matters in a world where less than 4 % of us don't look online before making a purchase (eConsultancy multi-channel shopper stats), and 70-90% of the B2B buying cycle is complete before buyers contact brands (Forrester).  

So what's stopping organisations fully embracing data driven, customer engagement? And how can you, pragmatically, break down the barriers? Alan Thorpe will share a methodology that's the result of 20 successful years experience delivering data driven marketing solutions for leading brands including ITV, Fidelity, RSA, LA Fitness.
