New philosophy that combines all 3 and creates new way of thinking to surround the business idea.
Creative execution translate fairly seamlessly across traditional outlets. What works for TV will probably work for radio, print and outdoor with minor modifications.
But when you take those messages online, you need to shift your perspective
Execution becomes Evolution. Your message morphs and shifts based on your user and their needs, feelings and desires.
No more set & forget- ongoing process of listening, engaging, analyzing performance and optimizing for success.
Listening is a first step to guide business. Must be coupled with strategic analysis to look not only at what is being said, but how, why and to what end it impacts your business goals and opportunities. Important to filter through the clutter to get to the nuggets of truth and determine how those truths are translated into innovative business and communications strategies.
What other terms & keywords is your customer looking for. Don’t get stuck thinking like a marketer…
What are the popular search terms in your category? Search by region,date range, categories, etc.
How qualified is a site? Find information on traffic, demographics and similar sites on www.Quantcast.com. www.compete.com www.quarkbase.com are additional free tools.

Create strict guidelines for engagement. Map out the details and make a plan to hold yourself accountable.
