The struggle is real.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
But we still keep doing
the same things.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Let’s share our struggles.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
How can we fix this?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
What is reporting?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Monitoring is data.
Reporting is insight.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
example: decrease in organic
traffic
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Monitoring is still important.
But it isn’t a report.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Reports should tell you if you’re
meeting your goals.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We’ve all made bad reports.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Why do we do this?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Insecurity?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
If you can’t trust the data, then
we can’t trust you.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Start with the end.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Introduce a goal charter.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
A goal charter answers
three questions.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
What are your goals?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Why do these goals exist?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
How will we know when
we’ve met the goal?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
What would a client
want to know?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Goal:
How much budget should
we put towards local listings
management?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Objective 1:
Know that we’re spending
the right budget on local
listings management.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Objective 2:
Understand the ROI of
listings management.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
How to measure results?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Do this for every goal.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Once you hit a goal,
start on another.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We still have a problem
when it comes to goals.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We measure what’s important to
the company, not the customer.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Don’t get trapped.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We aren’t focused on helping our
customers solve their problems
as fast as possible.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Have you asked your customers
what their problems are?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Organizations put
themselves first.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We need to be customer centric.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
This shift isn’t just desirable,
it’s important.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Success isn’t measured in
campaign cycles.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Keep asking why.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Can we solve their
problems faster?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
The old way is measuring
conversion rate on a form fill
or a purchase.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
The new way is measuring
how fast an order arrives.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
The new way is measuring
the moment they tell their
friends that they can see
perfectly post-Lasik.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
The new way is when their father
likes and respects the new home
care nurse you sent out.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Let’s call these
customer conversions.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
How do you measure them?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Number of featured snippets.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Facebook conversation rate and
sentiment analysis.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Was your content consumed?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
How long would it take someone
to read this content?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
When does the content end?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Did both these things happen?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
If so, the content was consumed.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
If not, you abandoned, skimmed,
or hoarded the tab for later.
#MozCon @danaditomaso

#MozCon @danaditomaso
Now what?
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Share your goal charter!
#MozCon @danaditomaso
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Let’s face a few hard truths.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
People don’t switch agencies
or hire new in-house
marketers because they
want more of the same.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
People make changes when
they don’t understand.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
Without understanding,
we lose accountability and trust.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
And then we end up in the
blame game.
#MozCon @danaditomaso
We’re all trying to help
people do better.
