Consumer Time Survey: Unwinding Think-Time ZappiStore
The most valuable resource we have in business is time. In marketing and consumer insights not having enough think-time is often the difference between a good idea and great idea. But this time-crunch isn't unique. It's something most people struggle with every day - and these people are our customers. We thought it would be interesting to ask the consumers what they would do with more free time to think and to live in an effort to find some common ground.

"In the world of market research there are few parties who come in for more scrutiny than the political pollsters. With so much emotion riding on a clear outcome it is understandable that people pay attention.
A large portion of market research essentially revolves around making a prediction and this is no more apparent than in political research. Given that prediction science plays such a huge part in the world of market research, it is unsurprising that as a research upon research department we have added our name to the list of those who have researched and written papers on the topic of how to make good predictions. Ultimately it has been this question which has led us to the more specific question of how to predict an election." - Alexander Wheatley
A report by technology company ZappiStore (that’s us) provides insight into what consumers think about this year's (2014) holiday advertising in the UK. As a twist, we used the same research tools that billion dollar brands employ to develop and test their adverts. This unique insider data shows which advertising campaigns are actually changing how people shop this year, and why.

Social Media Strategies to Drive Conversions in 2023Volume Nine
In this deep dive, we explored the intricate layers of social media marketing, the pivotal role of analytics in measuring channel performance, the undeniable significance of branding, and the effective application of data to supercharge campaigns. While data and metrics form a solid foundation, they don't overshadow the essence of emotional connection and brand resonance in consumer choices.
Highlights & Takeaways:
Analytics and Basketball Analogy: We unearthed a compelling comparison between basketball and marketing analytics. Akin to how certain players might score fewer but play crucial roles on the court, some marketing channels may seem like they're underdelivering, but in reality, they're setting other channels up for a slam dunk.
Emotional Connection: Unpacking the power of emotions, we discussed how consumers pledge loyalty to brands that strike an emotional chord.
Branding: The essence of branding and its unmatched role in marketing was underlined. A brand's reputation and alignment with consumer values can shift the marketing scales monumentally.
Importance of Tracking: We delved into the significance of UTM parameters, the essence of tracking brand mentions, gauging sentiment, and the power of monitoring branded searches to gauge the ripple effects of social media campaigns.
Engagement and Follower Growth: Understanding the algorithms of platforms like Facebook, we emphasized the weightage of engaging content. Beyond algorithm benefits, sustained growth and engagement can open doors to impactful business partnerships.
Contests and Giveaways: Showcasing the might of contests and giveaways, we highlighted how they can become potent tools for email marketing and audience connection when strategically employed.
Boosting vs. Ads: Differentiating between boosting organic posts and running ad campaigns, we explored the potential of boosting as an organic growth enhancer.
AI in Content Creation: Navigating the world of AI, we discussed its role in content brainstorming and audience understanding. The perfect blend of AI insights and tools like Canva and Adobe can lead to stellar creative content generation.
Harnessing the essence of these insights, brands and marketers are well-equipped to optimize their social media strategies, striking a fine balance between hard data and emotional branding, and wielding tools and techniques for peak performance.
This presentation introduces students to the world of Public Relations (PR) and the role 'marketing' plays in an organization. The idea is to highlight and organizations PR & Marketing departments should work closely.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
