Red Hot Digital Marketing Trends of 2016 - Cincinnati AMA - MarchMike Corak
With digital in full bloom, it’s hard to keep on top of what’s hot and what’s not. Thankfully, as a brand marketers/managers and leaders it’s not your responsibility to be monitoring the rise and fall of the latest trends – it’s ours. As VP and GM of DAC Group, Louisville, Mike Corak wouldn’t be doing his job if he wasn’t up to speed on the real-world staying power of digital trends and tactics. From ‘Why customer experience needs to be a top concern’ to ‘Looking beyond the Googlesphere for unique traffic and sizing up the data hound’s bark vs. its bite’ – this session will expose false predictions and shine a light on performing trends that brands shouldn’t ignore.
At the AMA Cincinnati event, Mike, or Mr. Corak as he is addressed by no one, will share his top eight digital trends that deliver. Together you’ll walk through the best of what’s ahead in digital tactics while gaining insight and tips for real-world application in digital communications, roadmap creation, and opportunity optimization for performance.
And, there may be lasers. For real.
How much time and money do we collectively burn by fixing the same kinds of basic, "binary," well-defined things over and over again (e.g., meta tags, 404s, URLs, etc), when we could be teaching others throughout our organizations not to break them in the first place?
As long as we "own" technical SEO, there's no reason (for example) for the average developer to learn it or care — so they keep making the same mistakes. We proclaim that others are doing things wrong, but by doing so we only reinforce the line between our skills and theirs. We need to start giving away bits of the SEO discipline, and technical SEO is the easiest piece for us to stop owning.
It's time for more democratization, education, collaboration, and investment in open-source projects so we can fix things once, rather than a million times.

6. @BridgetRandolph
I’m always trying to figure out
how to optimise my resources
- time, money, knowledge -
to get the best return
and achieve the
BIG WINS.
7. @BridgetRandolph
But for a long time,
despite my best intentions,
I didn’t manage to achieve those things.
8. @BridgetRandolph
And then one day, I read a story
about Warren Buffett, a man whom Google
tells me is the ‘most successful investor of
the 20th century’.
12. @BridgetRandolph
Warren Buffett is a busy man,
and he uses an executive jet service.
And he happened to strike up a friendship
with one of the pilots, a man called Mike.
15. @BridgetRandolph
“Mike, I’m going to help you achieve your
goals. The first step is that you need to write
down your 25 biggest goals for your career.”
So Mike did.
22. @BridgetRandolph
And this is why, if I’m honest, the title of my
talk is slightly misleading.
Because today I’m not going to talk about
budgets and money, or throw a bunch of
stats at you about how quickly mobile
media spend is growing or how the next big
trend is apps for smart watches.
23. @BridgetRandolph
The reason for this is that often, stats and
trends and even budgets themselves
can become a distraction from the
Real Questions™:
what are my goals?
how should I prioritise?
how do I maximise my limited resources?
24. @BridgetRandolph
So instead, what I want to do today is show
you how you can apply the principles which
Warren Buffett gave to his pilot Mike --
25. @BridgetRandolph
to help clarify your thinking when it comes
to creating a marketing strategy and
planning your activities for the next 3
months, 6 months, year.
31. @BridgetRandolph
Just like Warren Buffett asked Mike to do,
in this stage you need to be able to list all
the goals you are hoping to achieve.
32. @BridgetRandolph
What we’re trying to get to in this stage is a
comprehensive list of:
- all the possible goals that could result in
more revenue, and
- all the activities that could contribute to
achieving each goal.
38. @BridgetRandolph
But at this stage we want to get a bit more
granular.
What are the different ways that we could get
more revenue?
39. @BridgetRandolph
Some of the most common ways to grow revenue
● sell more to new people
● sell more to current customers (upsell or
increase number of return visits)
● upsell customers from one-off purchase to a
subscription/rolling model
53. @BridgetRandolph
HOW
could you achieve that sub-goal of more leads
via the website?
Answer: leverage offline marketing activities
for online (e.g. use exhibition events to get
email signups, etc).
55. @BridgetRandolph
Brainstorm + Data
List of Goals (WHAT)
Sense Check (WHY)
List of Activities (HOW)
Brainstorm + Data
Sense Check (WHY)
Final List of Goals and Activities
56. @BridgetRandolph
WHAT increase the number of qualified leads
coming via the website
WHY ● increase number of new contracts
● our avg contract value is $50k/year,
and
● customers tend to stay with a provider
as long as it’s working for them
HOW leverage offline marketing activities for
online (e.g. use exhibition events to get
email signups, etc).
62. @BridgetRandolph
And this can take a while, but it’s important
to invest the time to get this stage right -
because it's like steering a ship.
If you set a course that's only 1 or 2 degrees
off from where you need to get to,
eventually you'll find yourself heading in the
completely wrong direction.
64. @BridgetRandolph

STEP 2 - SUMMARY
1. What? (Mike’s “25 goals”)
2. EFFORT/IMPACT framework
3. Not sure? Ask an expert
4. Don’t forget other factors
Output: 1-3 top goals with activities
and a concrete timeline
76. @BridgetRandolph
We know this from every horror film ever.
The main character only has to do one thing
- stay on the path.
or: don’t go in the attic/basement/woods,
don’t open the book/cupboard/box, etc.
In short - they have to avoid distractions.
And they fail every time.
80. @BridgetRandolph
Because even though you have a plan, there will
always be shiny new things clamoring for your
attention. The CEO will ask why we don’t have an
app for smart watches. The devs will want to
prioritise something else.
90. @BridgetRandolph
