Customer experience letter Bank of America thoughtsClient X Client
Bank of America's Chairman's letter to 270000 employees about customer experience got my attention as a customer and a customer experience strategist. Why does the bank suddenly care about customer experience? Will my experience change? Will change be for better? Whom will be affected by change? What are the costs? How will employees think differently? How will customer experience be made visible to employees? Connected to roles? Who is ultimately responsible for BofA's customer experience?

Semantic Retail – Competitive Advantage through Data
Since Retailers implemented Point of Sale systems data has been a driver of competitive advantage. Modern retailing operations are reliant on up-to-date and accurate information from Vendors, Logistics Partners, Websites and Customer Relationship Management systems. Over the last five years we have witnessed a data explosion: Customer Feedback, Social Media, RFID and Sensor Data. Analysis of these new data streams by a new breed of Data Scientists is the new competitive playing field. Semantic Retail is the process of exploring new sources of data, making them available and understanding their relevance to find new ways to approach old problems.

Semantic enablement of a Retailer’s complex technology and data infrastructure is a significant undertaking and First Retail has joined forces with MphasiS to deliver a solution. The Semantic Retail solution combines MphasiS’ core skills of business analysis, contextual domain modeling, and process improvement with First Retail’s expertise in Machine Learning, Data Science, and Computational Linguistics. A proven methodology ensures phased projects with tightly scoped and well-defined deliverables will take the risk out of managing semantic technology and business innovation projects.

First Retail has an exceptional team of qualified and experienced research architects and engineers who will apply their cross-functional skills and intellect to your problems. The combined team will employ proven analysis techniques and off-the-shelf algorithms, but are eminently able to define unique new solutions. A holistic approach blends traditional analytic approaches with machine learning, high scalability, and effective use of human-supervised processes.

Reclaim Revenue: How to Create Effective Abandoned Cart CampaignsWhatCounts, Inc.
As a marketer, your goal is to turn the costs that you incur in driving traffic to your website into profits. You do this by converting visitors into customers. No matter how good your purchase funnel is, you will have visitors leave your site with items still in their shopping cart.
In this stage of the customer lifecycle, effective abandoned cart campaigns can be a huge asset to a marketer’s email program. In this webinar Emily Keye, Director of Strategy, and Erin Devine, Strategist, will discuss advanced techniques to reduce abandonment and get more effective results from your lifecycle marketing efforts.
During this webinar, WhatCounts expert Mike Piersa will discuss how to drive revenue from your newsletter through personalization:
- One-to-one content personalization based on web browsing behavior.
- Monetization of real-time offers through behavior based ads.
- How to upsell and cross-sell subscriptions based on in-depth behavioral data.
Walk through implementation of these concepts in your newsletter and get actionable takeaways you can apply immediately to your email program. Pump up the revenue-driving power of your email marketing newsletter through personalization.
If your emails aren’t making it to the inbox, what’s the point of sending? Inbox placement relies heavily on subscriber engagement, and no matter how great of a sender you are, there’s always room for improvement.
What if you could improve your chances of getting better inbox placement by implementing just a few key ideas to increase email engagement?
Getting more actions on your emails – opens and clicks – not only means you’re connecting with customers and prospects, but you’re also vetting yourself for a beneficial position in the eyes of ISPs. The rules of the modern inbox dictate the higher an email’s engagement, the better that message’s inbox placement.
Join us for this webinar with Amy Garland, Senior Strategic Account Manager, and Erica Malick, Strategic Account Manager, to gather actionable insights and specific ideas for getting better email engagement and inbox placement in 2015.

Canada's Anti-Spam Law Update: What It Means for You webinar slidesWhatCounts, Inc.
Industry Canada announced updates to Canada’s Anti-Spam Law (CASL) will officially take effect on July 1, 2014.
What does this mean for you as an email marketer? Our Director of Deliverability , Brad Gurley, will be addressing some key provisions of the law and how they may affect senders. In this webinar, he will discuss which senders are likely subject to the law, as well as examples of situations and processes that may or may not be compliant under the new law.
Reconfirming subscribers, modifying opt-in forms, or beefing up your data retention policies are just a few of the steps you may need to take now. With possible fines of up to $10 million per email, CASL compliance should be a top priority for your organization. Note: Any information given in this webinar should not be construed as legal advice and is provided only for guidance in sending practices.
The average shopping cart abandonment rate is over 65 percent. The average value of an online order is $116.58.
With these numbers staring you in the face, there’s no way you can ignore customers who fill their online carts and then walk away. Getting these subscribers to come back to your website and follow through on their orders is a must.
Email is the answer: It allows you to target your abandoned customers and better engage potential buyers.

7. AGENDA & CAVEAT’S
Top 5 ways in no particular order.
Funny but true.
Face value. Don’t know everything.
Been there and done that.
Do. Don’t get down.
No disrespect.
Take 1. Go and change.
One bonus way.
Get Better Everyday.
17. Bury the sign up at the bottom of the page.
Make it 3 pt font and smaller than all other
text on the page.
Never test placement of your email sign up.
If they do find it make them go to another
page and require 15 pieces of information from
them that you will never use.
Make sure you make the social media
buttons way larger and more prominent than
your email sign up, because you can easily
measure revenue on them.
22. 6 points for email
1. Put it all the way at the bottom and make the subscriber scroll and scroll
and scroll.
2. Make it so they need a magnifying glass to find it buried in the legal
mumbo jumbo.
3. After they click unsubscribe tell them it might take 9 days to process
and then send them more email in the meantime.
4. When they unsubscribe, send them an email asking them if they meant
to unsubscribe. Rinse and repeat….over and over.
5. Offer no link. Ask them to reply to the email with the word
“unsubscribe” in the subject line. Make the reply address
“donotreply@xxxx.com.”
6. Lighten the text wherever the unsubscribe is so its hard to read.
28. Things you should do to keep being dirty.
1. Forget about purging inactives. Who cares if they aren’t
responding to your email. They might one day….right?
2. Your reputation means nothing with the ISP’s. Just set up a
separate sub-domain when it goes bad.
3. Never take an active part in your delivery and put all your eggs
in one basket.
4. Feedback loops are for wimps. Live dangerously and never
check to see what your spam complaints are.
5. Increase your frequency to your inactives. Eventually they will
unsubscribe or buy something.
6. Cave into pressure from senior level management and keep
everyone on your list for as long as you can.
29.
30. Send more. Make more.
Short term gain.
Who cares about long
term effects.
31. POLL TIME
Do you feel as if you send
too much or too little email?
too much
too little
I don’t know
40. ① Send as much email as
you can. Send it to the
point where the subscriber
can’t take it anymore. All
Oink. Oink.
for the sake of making
your revenue number
today.
② Acquire email address
from any source you can
get your hands on. Never
measure the long term
impact of each of the
sources.
③ Buy a list of 50,000,000
email address for $99 or
less.
④ Cram as much content into
your emails as you can.
⑤ Never change. Never test.
Assume that since you are
making money, everything
is ok.

lines into your tweets. Its FREE!!
4. Triple your social media budget and
steal the money from your alloted ESP’s
