Editor's Notes
- According to a recent study by the global executive recruiting firm Spencer Stuart, the average tenure for CMOs is only 23 months. Increase Brand Awareness Improve Response Rates Improve Customer Loyalty Improve Tracking Budget Constraints
- You think about it rarely are marketing budgets increased. You have the traditional radio, television, newspaper, magazine all competing for the same marketing budgets but now you have all these new marketing mediums competing as well such as, Social Marketing as our Print Junkie for instance, Viral Marketing-or word or mouth, Mobile Marketing-which is text messaging which retailers will be taking to the next level that you will say pass by a Starbucks and they know you like a Café Mocha and you will receive a coupon for $1 off as you walk by. There is is Search Engine Optimization and Personalized URL’s or in otherwords a personalized microsite specifically targeted to you. So the marketing opportunity facing distributors is difficult at best. We have to be part of that developing mix. We need to start controlling the process. We do not want to be the subcontractors in this mix. We should be playing a much greater role in helping companies determine what their most optimal media mixes will be. We experienced a recent situation in Georgia with a severe gas situation due to the hurricanes and the pipe lines being shut down. How attractive does e-Commerce become in that situation to retail marketers?
- Issues as you consider your strategy- We are bombarded with zillions of messages a day Competition is increasing and various mediums fight for our attention We as consumers are starting to see a push back on marketing messages Average person sees- 2904 messages a day 52 pay attention to 4 you remember
- First be sure that you update and validate your mailing list. Think about how your PURL will look like. All capital letters, all lowercase, Check for missing fields in your data file. Some names may have combined fields, some may have prefixes or suffixes, others names may make the PURLs too long and then you defeating the entire purpose of the PURL to make it easy for people to log on.
- Consumer paranoia around how companies use their personal information continues to rise. Companies must take responsibility for how their employees use customer data not only to comply with current legislation but also to prepare for future legislation that will undoubtedly result from continued consumer pressure. To manage this, firms must centralize governance of the customer communication strategy. The historical gap between marketing and IT is well documented. Marketing grew up as a creative discipline typically working with external agencies to define the brand and launch new products. The need for applications beyond the desktop was limited , as was the capital budget of the marketing organization. But as marketing’s role shifts to ownership of the cross-channel implementation of customer-focused strategies, technology is critical to success. Marketing and IT must define a shared vision and strategic direction that: Enable the company to go to market in different ways. The increasing prevalence of addressable channels, both outbound and inbound, present marketers with more direct , even interactive, opportunities for communicating with customers. Direct communications-particularly interactive ones-require messages that are finely tuned to each customer. If marketers abuse these channels with irrelevant, disruptive and intrusive messages, consumers will do whatever it takes to avoid those messages. Technology can help marketers navigate through these channels. Make sense out of the growing mountains of customer data. To understand customer needs and approach customers with the right message in the right place, at the right time, marketing must make heavy use of customer data and analytic techniques. To do this, marketing requires access to a vast number of data sources-both internal and external-which inevitably creates data quality issues and data integration challenges. Even experienced database marketers complain about their ability to access data of sufficient breadth, depth and recency. Coordinate the customer experience. As marketing interacts with customers through more channels-outbound and inbound-the awareness that each channel has of the messages presented and of the customer's reaction to those messages grows in importance. Technology can help. The data infrastructure supports three critical functions: Understanding customer needs and preferences Informing customer contact priorities and real-time interactions Providing insight into key trends that drive product and business strategy. Analytics will be more tightly integrated into the marketing process. Real-time access to data sources will become increasingly critical.
- Depending on the product or service you’re selling, you may or may not want to make the mailer or email and the landing page identical. Consider that they have two different functions. The function of the mailer and email is to attract the attention of the prospect or customer and drive them to the web Once you have them at the web the function of the site is to gather information, make a sale, drive them to donate etc. You may have to reveal that they are going to get much more information oce they get to the website.
- Like any other direct response tool knowing your list an dkowig your demographics just allows you to do more. In this case of Nursery water our lists were broken out by the age of the children in the household- 0-6 months 6-12 moths 12-18 months 18-24 months 24-36 months Our graphics and offers and text reflected differently based on the age of the children.
- So what do we mean by “relevance”? It means that you can use your data to speak to each recipient about something that has specific meaning to them. For example, if we know that John is in charge of rental car decision making [via his title] at a pharmaceutical company [using SIC codes], rather than just saying “John, at Avis we try harder” to everyone, you can speak directly to John about what Avis saves the pharmaceutical industry and what they can save his company. [Ask the audience] What type of products to you folks offer? [Get some examples and brainstorm how you might use relevance to drive traffic into their stores: A postcard that shows the last product they bought and offers a discount on a related product. A thank you for the purchase of a particular service, and a discount on the next visit A refer a friend discount offer or thank you.]
- Talk track: We can help you capture that 33% by adding personalized URLs and VIP landing pages to your direct mail marketing. Via digital technology, the entire direct mail piece can be personal and relevant to each recipient. A Personalized URL brings each recipient who chooses to respond online to their very own web page, which continues the personal and relevant nature of the communication. One thing I’d like to point out is that we are not suggesting that you remove all other response chanels from your direct mail. Remember, only 33% of your respondents prefer the web as their response vehicle. So keep those toll free numbers and BRC’s in place. Over time, if you find that more and more people in your particular audience are responding online, then you may be able to retire some of those other mechanizms, but I don’t recommending that until the results warrant it.
- Personalized URLs allow the transition of online response into actionable leads through the use of VIP Landing Pages. These special types of web pages capture online responses. So we can take a visit and transition it into an actionable lead that sales or business development can follow-up on quickly. Leads from VIP Landing Pages are immediately sent to sales for follow-up. Since campaigns are immediately real time viewable, insight can be applied to current and subsequent campaigns.
