Editor's Notes
- Always ask, How do these “things” affect me as a marketer? Now and in the future? How do they affect the consumer? How can “You” leverage emerging tech? Always ask “What’s next?” Follow up with, “What’s after this?” Continuously ask, What still works? What doesn’t work anymore? Think about technologies that have driven newspapers, magazines, fax machines and travel agents to the point of extinction.
- The hype cycle provides a graphical and conceptual presentation of the maturity of emerging technologies through five phases.
- The takeaway? Your customers are now mobile first
- As of the third quarter of 2016, Facebook had 1.79 billion monthly active users.
- Facebook bought WhatsApp for $19 billion. Instagram for a $1 billion.
- The number of people in the US who are consuming video on mobile devices is set to increase smartphones are seeing the greatest amount of video viewing Think about embedded videos Content marketing, what works? Bullet points and a less is more of a tactic than the written word Orabrush made it’s mark through organic low-cost YouTube videos
- How important will the following be for your digital marketing over the next few years? The key words? Optimizing the cx and a consistent message across all channels
- Why does one choose to use Gmail over Yahoo, Medium over Wordpress — if the features are 99% the same? It’s definitely not about disrupting usability standards. It’s about that additional layer of sophistication in the little things, the most subtle animations, the most elegant transitions – not just for the sake of creating… The best analogy is that Google was not the first search engine, it was about the 17th or so. Think about the UI for Google. Wipro now has a whole division devoted to Design
- Why is this relevant? You can automate based on typical queries and extensive customer data to resolve typical customer issues.
- A recent Business Insider survey: Reasons consumers in the US and Germany want to be contacted by service providers over chat? Speed
- It used to be that we first called the 800 number, then email, then social, and then, if that didn’t work you publicly complained. But if you want to resolve things you take things private.
- 80% of your business will come from 20% of your customers Google analytics-Learn to understand some of it Dashboards-I use them for social listening Determine what’s working and what isn’t One size doesn’t fit all anymore. Facebook v. Twitter v. Linkedin-All different audiences and types of content Personalization. The art of the crappy PR pitch Take advantage of Free for data tools Who is your customer? Get inside their head-Personas
- An example of social listening-Tweetdeck
- Marketers are lazy
- SEO. 50/50 You must Focus on the user AND on Google. Paid Search and paid social are the primary route to go The importance of Google analytics Any and all opportunities to push content out-you have to cover the spectrum of channels #1 on Google (when talking about traditional rankings) doesn't mean the same thing now that it used to and we're having to adapt our SEO strategies and ranking software to reflect that.
- Functionality must be a given Usability is now a commodity You may not get a second chance at a first impression How’s your UI? What’s the purpose of it? Awareness? Lead Gen? How’s the CX?
- I think most people know and accept that design isn’t just about what something looks like. Design is about choosing the right problems to solve and how it solves them.
- It’s a given that all sites are responsive. But not all responsive sites are built with the customer in mind.
- It’s Org change. Think inside out. Think culture It’s more than just a concept Changing the way you operate “An astounding 78 percent of businesses believe digital start-ups will pose a threat to their organization either now or in the future, and nearly half of global companies say they don’t know what their industry will look like in three years.”-Dell Research
- Digital disruption can take the form of cloud, big data, mobile, limitless computing, etc… It’s all about disrupting traditional business models and industries. Think Outside in.
- According to comScore data, an average household in the United States has 10 active connected devices; households with 4 or more people even have 19 devices on average. The IoT is a vast network of smart objects which work together in collecting and analyzing data and autonomously performing actions. Think Wearables. By 2020, the amount of Internet-connected things will reach 50 billion, with $19 trillion in profits and cost savings coming from IoT over the next decade. The wearables market is contracting. Why? Something better? Saturation?
- Its all about keeping you in network
- It’s a paid game
- You don’t have to pick every one of them! Where do your customers play? Where is the low hanging fruit?
- How long will “it” take? Do you have the bandwidth? Who do you know or what do you need to know to make it happen? How much will it cost?
- Focus on the ROI of your activities and then the ROI will follow with your customers
- So I used Free A recent Deloitte study says that a majority of CIOs say customers are now the top business priority, displacing performance from the last survey; Analytics and customer/digital experience are top skill sets CIOs will hire for in the next two years
- Focus on valuing design and delivering exceptional customer experiences
- This era is our reality
