Editor's Notes

  • #4 I am a salesjerk, but my primary value is in education and technical nuances amongst the different software solutions and services we provide to our customers. I really enjoy this business. If you enjoy technical challenges, there is always interesting problems to solve
  • #5 I’ve been with IOI for 10 of their 15 years of creative technology support and solutions for our customer across NA, Europe and Australia.
  • #6 I want to speak briefly about the connection between content marketing, personalization, and customer experience management and then take a look at how some top brands are transforming their marketing through personalized, real-time, data-driven communications that reach customers at exactly the right moments. In short, they have optimized their content marketing supply chains with technology that helps them curate and deliver high-impact content based on individual customer behaviors. This results in brand loyalty, higher sales, lower marketing operations and lower production costs. Everyone wants customers that fanatically love their brand, will not consider similar brands and that tell everyone they know about it. And, then buy more, more often. Today we are going to take a look at how some of our favorite brands wow customers and win markets.
  • #7 If you think about how content was once delivered to consumers and what the experience of reading a newspaper was like, advertisers could only guess what the experience was like and whatimpact it had. The only measurement was sales, foot traffic, phone calls, and the only insights might be based on census data and syndicated research tied to ZIP Codes. You can see how easy the brand message used to be, how simple it could be presented in media – on maybe 3 channels (TV, Radio & Print (newspapers OOH and DM)), That provided little insight for the brand into consumers’ reaction, engagement and call to action. today, brands must have a right now, personalized message delivered across possibly thousands of channels. Brands are reacting in real time to their customers via Twitter and Facebook and Vines. The good news is we can measure the consumers’ reaction very quickly, optimize the message, and try again. The bad news is its nearly impossible to create 1:1 personalized content for thousands of channels so we need to be really smart about the way we create, re-use, personalize and publish content.
  • #8 The proliferation of all this content across so many channels can create noise and we find that technology and the consumer quest for information drives aneed for 1:1 personally relevant, emotionally engaging customer experiences with the brand. We are talking where and when your customers are, right now, multi-channel real-time engagement. Hard to do but with incredible pay-offs. Customers that do this enjoy a true competitive advantage, measurable in streamlined, automated content workflows and brand equity. But how do you go about achieving this? Imagine: Having a single source of truth – your content. Creating it once Publishing it across all channels In the the customers native language And then fine-tuning that content based on the customer’s reaction That will result in: Delivering an extremely consistent brand experience Engaging emotionally with each customer All while speeding time to market
  • #9 New brand customer communication channels are being generated every day Consumers are now engaging with brands quicker, with more intelligence, input and control than ever before. Consumers are the new brand owners Consumers are the new brand owners Marketing is changing it's role to becoming story-tellers, not brand descriptors – and inviting their customers to participate. GoPro’s videos and photos of the day are great examples. All user generated New marketing roles are appearing as the channels change over the next 10 years, you will see Chief Content Officer, Chief Listening Officer, Director of Audience, Channel Master, Chief Technologist, Influencer Relation. They will demand different technology tools, driven by content, CRM, analytics and consumer experiences The tipping point in where brands spend their ad dollars comes down to which channel is most cost effective for amplifying the message and creating a sense of urgency. “Call to Action” Now that we can effectively measure online engagement, less money will be going to TV.
  • #10 We went from junk mail to the junk email inbox and now consumer devices have freed us in a sense and we are able to pull information as we like when we like rather than when the brand wants us to see it. Engaging with your favorite brand shouldn’t feel like you are losing the tetris battle with your inbox. It should be a pleasurable experience. Oriental trading? 3 emails the first day, 5 catalogs some days
  • #11 That said, with the amount of content being produced, its more important than ever to aggregate and curate personally relevant content or your brand gets lost in the noise. If you are licensing content or supporting user-generated content (gained media), your growth will be exponential. Agencies, creative and digital departments, and marketing organizations all face the same challenge that what used to be a single deliverable such as a brochure has now also has a video, social/mobile/email campaign, banner ad, and app that need to be delivered with it. And, they would like it yesterday please, A/B tested and ready to go.
  • #12 The proliferation of all this content across so many channels creates the need for marketing technology and operations to manage it and to integrate with the rest of the company technology stacks such as CRM, CMS, ERP, etc. So now marketing technology logos seem to be almost outpacing channels and content!
  • #13 And that divergence in the marketing technology space is a rapidly growing market. By starting with a clear vision of what content marketing success looks like for your organization, you will be set to pick the technology winners
  • #14 In fact, brands can touch consumers in more ways than ever before across channels that integrate with disparate technologies across the organization. Retail brick and mortar, ecommerce, social. Mobile, distribution and licensing, and other partnerships. All these partners touch the consumer with the brand message. That is why its more important than ever to have a single place of truth for all content that everyone shares and its always consistent, personalized. Please allow me a small tangent thought. People forget that Macintoshes were the red-headed step child for most IT organizations until the iPhone forced them to accept the BYOD movement. Apple users used to have to go through all sorts of technical contortions to use Apple products in a corporate environment. What used to be homogenous landscape of primarily Windows servers, is now a heterogeneous environment that requires integration across all devices. The Internet of Everything requires 100% uptime to communicate and provide services. This communication and integration across solutions is now more important than ever.
  • #15 So how do you cut thru all that and find a happy solution?
  • #16 Time check? Should be 20 past
  • #18 Don’t forget that you need a baseline to illustrate the progress being made, we have to justify the investment to the CFO. Do you have a content Strategy? Don’t have a content plan, “Man plans and God laughs” – Yiddish phrase
  • #24 Better to grant access than to remove access
  • #26 Self pros: Final exam, proof of comprehension of the application Better to tailor a small FAQ with your specific screen grabs etc Less expensive Cons Requires that you actually learn the app Exhaustive
  • #27 Time check? Should be 40 past
  • #31 BMW knows the most about their cars but would you rather take their word for it or hear from your friend Rick that he just got a 500 series since he has kids but loved his Z4 he had for years?
  • #33 Add value messages that align with IOI technology understanding and how to’s on best practices and why IO? Speak to each bullet per slide - Subsequent pages for bullets have been added “Be your own success story too.”. Consider a unique testimonials about IOI or guest on each of the 3 slides.
  • #34 % of incline with workflow implementation. % of decline without a workflow solution. Start of Q & A with knowledge then open the floor to Q & A.
