The New Viral: Effective, Not Just InfectiveBen Grossman
Subservient Chicken. Old Spice Guy. Real Beauty Sketches. They’re the stuff of viral video and marketing legend.
But where does that leave viral marketing today? Surprisingly abandoned. According to Google search data, interest in viral marketing has decreased by 80% since 2004.
Meanwhile, efficacy has evolved into a central focus for marketers who were once simply concerned with view counts and eyeballs. 86% of marketing leaders admit that their content marketing is only somewhat effective at creating business value. It’s the dawn of The New Viral – a digital and content marketing approach focused more on being effective than simply infective, while still making the most of organic spread.

Brand As Verb: Principles of High Performing Experience BrandsBen Grossman
80% of leaders say their brands offer a superior customer experience. Only 8% of customers agree. Meanwhile, marketers are tortured by the fact that the number one way people learn about and buy from their brands is the hardest one to control: word-of-mouth. In today’s world of new realities it doesn’t pay for brands to stand by, continuing to trumpet their “creative messaging.” After all, 74% of people advocate for brands by describing their experiences with them. Brands that break through are brands that take action… brands that are more than nouns. Brands must see themselves as verbs.

As web marketing undergoes its biggest shift in a decade, how we impact audiences needs to evolve.

Influencer marketing can be a powerful tactic, but the practice is far too narrow, and often focused on wrong metrics.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

21. What If I Can’t Be That CEO?
(or can’t convince my CEO to adopt these recommendations?)
22. Option #1: Delegate to an Internal Marketing Leader
Hilary Mason of Bit.ly: http://www.hilarymason.com/about/
23. Option #2: Rely on Your Product,
Your Persona, and/or Your Paid
Marketing to Take You Viral.
Priceline hasn’t (historically) invested in strategic inbound marketing, yet benefits from great viral reach.
24. Option #3: Accept that Inbound Marketing (SEO, social,
content, etc) Won’t Be a Competitive Advantage
It’s OK to intentionally make inbound a weakness. It’s not OK to pretend it’s a strength if it’s not.
25. 10 Tactical Tips for CEOs
Engaging in Inbound Marketing*
* I would strongly urge CEOs not to engage in any other kind of marketing, mostly because these others do
not scale as well, nor do they leverage the unique advantages CEOs possess.
26. #1: Understand & Evangelize How Your Funnel Works
This dynamic funnel is visible to everyone at Moz via a dynamic web interface.
27. #2: Be a Proactive Industry Contributor
Matt Blumberg of http://returnpath.com sits on the DMA’s board, & contributes to industry publications.
28. #3: Leverage the Press Wisely
Create press-worthy news: http://www.fullcontact.com/2012/07/10/paid-paid-vacation/ then be accessible.
29. #4: Empower Your Marketing Team w/ Devs
Casey Devin Jake
Moz has an “inbound engineering” team that focuses exclusively on marketing-related development
30. #5: Get Good at One or More Forms of Content
Delegating most of these is fine. But you have to find at least one that fits your strengths.
31. #6: Recognize Marketing Accomplishments the Way You
Do Product, Engineering, and Financial Milestones
Recognition is an incredibly powerful way CEOs drive action & show what matters to the culture.
32. #7: Optimize Your Online Bio (& Update It, Too)
Your bio gives you full control over links & anchor text. Keep it useful & updated, and provide it to whomever needs
it (events, charities, interviewers, etc).
33. #8: CEOs Amass Favors. Ask for Links & Shares!!
100s of people I connect with ask me how/if they can “repay the favor.” Other CEOs get this, too.
34. #9: Leverage Your Contacts to Amplify Messages
You can/should do
this manually
through email, but
Wonk makes it easy
to export & search
your followers for
those who can help.
