WCM - The hub of Web, Email & Social Media Insights & Engagements

This webinar will highlight results from Econsultancy’s New Marketing Reality report in partnership with IBM.

The traditional funnel no longer works. It assumes audiences are linear and predictable in their behaviour. At the same time, it doesn’t take into account the fact that people will act the way they want to act, rather than sticking to a sequence designed by marketers.
Despite this being the perceived wisdom among practitioners, organisations still spend billions creating awareness to acquire new customers. What they should be doing is spending this on keeping existing customers happy by providing a superior customer experience.
This webinar will seek to explore why organisations are failing to take into account this new marketing reality. In doing so, it will underline the challenges marketers face when trying to get a joined-up view of the customer and the opportunities that can be had from unlocking the value of customer data.

As part of this, the webinar will address some of the following points:

· What role does first-party data play in marketer’s strategies, and what facts are preventing organisations from making better use of their customer data?
· How effectively are organisations joining the dots when it comes to linking their understanding of consumer journeys from online to offline? What sources of data are they using?
· How do organisations rate the importance of understanding the customer journey and for more progressive marketers, what have been the business benefits of this understanding?
· What’s driving this overall strategy – are organisations using this intelligence of the customer to drive business-focussed outcomes or measure the performance of individual campaigns?
· What new technologies are practitioners using to make sense of audiences, from marketing automation to AI and intelligent algorithms?

Attribution is often described as trying to find a single source of truth for the relative impact of every channel on the customer path to conversion.

However, the proliferation of the marketing stack, advertising channels, and user devices has made that search ever more challenging, as have the various schools of thought around the best attribution strategies.

Thus, AdRoll has partnered with Econsultancy to evaluate the state of marketing attribution in the UK, France and Germany. Join Gavin Flood, AdRoll EMEA marketing director, and Jim Clark, Econsultancy research director on November 22nd for a live webinar to make sense of attribution in 2016.

In this webinar you will learn how to tackle numerous attribution challenges:

- Learn why most organisations don’t carry out attribution across the majority of their campaigns and how to remedy this.
- Benchmark your organisation against your peers and find out which methods and technologies they are using.
- Discover the skills and training needed for successful attribution.
- Ask any and all your questions live.

Data and analytics are the lifeblood of effective marketing and consumer engagement. However, we found many of the marketers we recently surveyed are facing a data dilemma. On the one hand, they know data analytics is integral to achieving their marketing objectives. On the other hand, many are struggling with the resource-intensive nature that navigating data demands. This data dilemma is two sides of the same coin, where marketers can feel overpowered, rather than empowered, by data.
In this Marketing Week webinar, in association with Callcredit, we will explore some of the reasons behind The Data Dilemma and ways in which marketers can gain control over their data, to translate it into insight that drives growth.

- How to stay ahead of digital disruption, and customers’ changing demands, by blending the right combination of digital experience technology and organisational strategy
- How personalisation, new modes of interaction like voice-based interaction (Amazon Echo), digital screens and signage, and other digital channels are expanding the definition of digital experience success
- Describe common internal organisational barriers that cause you to fall behind and prevent you from moving quickly to stay ahead of the market and your stakeholders
- Address how a flexible digital experience platform can help Business and IT to work together and provide a strong foundation for whatever comes next in a fast-changing, digital-first world

At Crimson Hexagon, we help the leading brands and agencies globally keep up with the fast changing world of social media. As we grow and develop our social intelligence, we aim to ensure they can tackle three big challenges the future of social will bring: image analytics, trend spotting and advanced emotion detection.

In this Marketing Week webinar, in association with Crimson Hexagon, we will aim to take on these three challenges, providing examples of how organisations can future proof their businesses to deal with:

Image recognition and analytics
With more than 1.8 billion images posted to social media channels like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr and Whatsapp every day, how can brands better analyse campaign performance, identify influencers and understand consumer audiences?

Trend spotting
People have been sharing opinions and interests on social networks for more than 10 years. What can brands learn by analysing 750 billion social posts about how your target audiences are evolving and what they are talking about?

Advanced emotion detection
As organisations become more sophisticated in their application of social intelligence across different departments and business units, how can organisations move beyond positive and negative sentiment to distil true meaning from social conversation?

Marketing is evolving from a “push” mentality – “Let’s push out everything we have to our customers and see what sticks” – to a customer-centric “pull” approach using personalised, valuable and relevant content that aligns with your customer’s experiences with your company.

This Marketing Week webinar in association with dotMailer will help you understand how a holistic approach to customer experience can improve consumer’s perceptions of your brand and help boost sales.

Creating compelling press releases and content is more and more important to today’s communications professionals. Survey research has always been a powerful tool to validate client pitches, and creative, and now many communications professionals are using survey research to help inform communications strategies and content development.

In this Marketing Week webinar, in association with Toluna, you will learn:

• How to craft surveys that create compelling stories that journalists want to cover
• Using survey research to ensure that you’re touching on current trends, and consumer hot topics
• How to use survey research as an anchor for your communications calendar
