CrushIQ: Insights into Facebook Insights Mike Schaffer
From CrushIQ November 2011 in Washington, DC: Mike Schaffer's presentation on Facebook Insights. (Note, this was Part I of the presentation. Part II was a live tour of Insights on a Facebook page.)
At The Wilbert Group, we are (at least) as good as any PR firm anywhere at media relations. In late 2014, we committed to also building the industry-leading program to amplify media hits on social and digital channels. In other words, how do we most strategically promote a client story in the AJC or the WSJ or on CNN?
Any PR person can slap a link on Twitter. But a more sophisticated approach generates way better results.
We have spent months analyzing what we were already doing to amplify hits, thinking deeply about how to drive bottom-line value to clients, building partnerships with the smartest digital firms out there, testing out tools and measuring results.
And at last, we are ready to introduce our own proprietary program called Wilbert Amplify. We’ll be sharing it with clients during the next few months and would love your feedback too.
We’ve always been great at telling client stories. Now we can tell them even LOUDER.

Better User Experience through Personalisation in DrupalDavid Peterson
Personalisation means better communication to your site visitors. We all know that one size doesn't fit all and this is very true for content. A message that is important to me might be of no consequence to you.
Many competing CMS systems have built-in Personalisation. These are powerful, but often complex beasts; yet many clients want this power. How can this be achieved in Drupal? How can Drupal do it better than the other big, expensive, proprietary systems?
I will present the latest techniques in the Personalisation space and how they can be deeply integrated into your Drupal website.
Topics Covered:
- Explicit Personalisation (logged in users)
- Implicit Personalisation (anonymous users)
- Presenting content to users based on:
geo-location
user device
time-of-day
time-of-week
browsing patterns
and more...

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.
For too many years marketing and sales have operated in silos...while in some forward thinking companies, the two organizations work together to drive new opportunity development and revenue. This session will explore the lessons learned in that beautiful dance that can occur when marketing and sales work together...to drive new opportunity development, account expansion and customer satisfaction.
No, this is not a conversation about MQLs and SQLs. Instead we will focus on a framework that allows the two organizations to drive company success together.

15. My inspiration for the post was… I loved the most recent X-Men movie and have seen lots of friends excited about it.
My target audience is… Primary: People who like X-Men or have a significant other who likes X-Men
Secondary: Comic book lovers, people who hate X-Men, people who like cheesy humor
My USP is… Multiple unique, funny, visual, X-men-related Valentines
They will find it via… Social media (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest)
Search engines (Optimizing for “x-men valentines”)
Syndication (Comic-related websites, forums)
They will share it because… People want visual ways to express affection that aligns with their preferences; digital images
make these easy to e-mail or link to.
They may not share it because… It doesn’t have their favorite X-Men, they don’t like X-Men, they dislike pun-based humor,
design quality wasn’t good enough
My strategy to maximize product-
market fit includes…
Examples of market research/market testing: audience research, headline generation,
feedback from target market, identification of similar successful content, tools and data
sources (Be specific)
An example of successful content
targeting the same target audience
is…

“I will definitely be applying this at my

21. “The biggest lesson that I learned… is
how you must really be rational to what
people will want to read. I chose a very
targeted readership and I simply did not
reach them. Trying to process all the
considerations was a very new thing.”
22. “Originally I thought it would be overwhelming to
create something on BuzzFeed…but I was
pleasantly surprised at how manageable and fun
the process was.”
“I took a lot away from participating in this process
and I realized that a plan needs to be carried out
strategically and in a timely manner.”
