Which product design and development phases lend themselves best to being shaped by the Voice of the Consumer? What market research methodologies are most appropriate?

Most companies nowadays invest a lot of money into their digital marketing and search engine optimization efforts but rarely seem to benchmark, measure, audit and prove the success of their efforts. The lack of a simple, yet structured way to report on the effectiveness of a company’s online marketing efforts often leads to shutting down activities that are actually working and supporting the bottom line.

In this 60-minute webinar recording, you will learn:
- Why you need to perform an SEO site audit on a regular basis (and how to do it)
- How to benchmark and setting up achievable and measurable goals
- Free and paid tools to measure your results
- Case studies and best practices
This webinar targets business owners, marketing and communications professionals and anyone interested in learning more about SEO website audits.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
