While the idea might seem foreign, it's efficacy is not in doubt.

Your Body Can't Lie: What We Can Learn from Physiological Responses to Digita...clickrain
Digital advertising is moving at an astonishing pace. We have many incredible measurement tools at our disposal. Because of this pace, we should always keep an eye to the future. Wearables are the new “it” product but have you ever wondered why? We are moving into a society where people want to count just about everything (and are willing to give up privacy to do it). The technology keeps getting cheaper and the ability to measure advertising without asking questions is becoming affordable. A discussion of wearables, eye-tracking, and other physiological response data should get you ready for physiological measurement’s inevitable entry into the digital advertising measurement ecosystem. | Brandon Nutting

Death To Demise: Everything You Know About Content Marketing Is Wrong
By now, we've all heard the news: The content apocalypse is upon us, and the days of finding success via content marketing are over. There's simply too much content being produced for it to be effective or garner engagement. Even worse, even the content that earns engagement does not get read, earn links or convert.
Don't fall for this ruse. Content marketing, when done right, can be very effective.
The 5 Dangerous Realities of Social Media. We have a choice to make: embrace the social, or embrace the media. In businesses' quest to make social media a financial gold mine, we're cutting corners on strategy, operations, execution, measurement, and staffing of social media.
Presentation by Jay Baer (www.convinceandconvert.com www.nowrevolutionbook.com) given to Get Social PRSSA Conference.
Let’s be honest: for most content strategists and other people working with online content, SEO is The Worst Part Of The Job.
It’s hugely technical, it’s shrouded in mystery, it seems to be focused on robots instead of people, there are unspoken rules, everything can turn on a dime, and it never, ever seems to end.
But SEO doesn't have to be this way. It’s time to begin a conversation between these two disciplines – they’re far more alike than you might think. And when they work together on behalf of users and customers, amazing things can happen that will drive your organisation forward.
I can’t promise to change your mind about SEO, but you’ll leave this session understanding how to build the essentials into your work in ways that are simple, make sense, and are pain-free. You’ll see what business impacts and wins for the customer SEO and Content Strategy have had at REI, a major retailer in the US. And you’ll have the vocabulary, understanding and tools that you need to talk with your SEO... or to take it for yourself.
Drive traffic, amaze your visitors, and Win the Internet -- with SEO and Content Strategy working together.

SearchLove Boston 2016 | Rand Fishkin | The Measure of a Marketer's WorthDistilled
Web marketers have thousands of tactics to choose from, almost all of which can be measured, benchmarked and tracked over time. However, we too often invest in work that doesn't line up to the metrics we care about. We're tasked with work that's supposed to hit numbers, yet lack the connection between that work and those goals. In this high-level presentation, Rand will explore several analogies that illuminate a path to measuring all the way through, from work to metrics to goals.

Content Marketing 101 Masterclass for the Institute of Directors - Young Dire...Dean Langasco
Slides from IOD Young Director's Conference.
What is content marketing?
A quick history of content marketing.
Content success stories.
Applying learning from the greats.
Low engagement, retention and productivity directly impact an organization’s financial success and remain a critical issue for talent development and learning leaders. Emotional elements like purpose, passion, attitude, values and achievement drive are nearly 80 percent of what makes employees successful. Yet most training curricula focus on product knowledge and skills without addressing these critical issues. The solution is to uncover:
· Purpose: the secret of high performance
· Passion: unleashing the power of goal clarity
· Performance: creating synergies within the team
Learn specific tools and techniques to uncover employees’ purpose and passion and ways to uncover and coach to what really motivates them: a step-by-step process to create a true high-performance culture.

Search Engine Marketing - Competitor and Keyword researchETMARK ACADEMY
Over 2 Trillion searches are made per day in Google search, which means there are more than 2 Trillion visits happening across the websites of the world wide web.
People search various questions, phrases or words. But some words and phrases are searched
more often than others.
For example, the words, ‘running shoes’ are searched more often than ‘best road running
shoes for men’
These words or phrases which people use to search on Google are called Keywords.
Some keywords are searched more often than others. Number of times a keyword is searched
for in a month is called keyword volume.
Some keywords have more relevant results than others. For the phrase “running shoes” we
get more than 80M relevant results, whereas for “best road running shoes for men” we get
only 8.
The former keyword ‘running shoes’ has way more competition from popular websites to
new and small blogs, whereas the latter keyword doesn’t have that much competition. This
search competition for a keyword is called search difficulty of a keyword or keyword
difficulty.
In other words, if the keyword difficulty is ‘low’ or ‘easy’, there won’t be any competition
and if you target such keywords on your site, you can easily rank on the front page of Google.
Some keywords are searched for, just to know or to learn some information about something,
that’s their search intention. For example, “What shoe size should I choose?” or “How to pick
the right shoe size?”
These keywords which are searched just to know about stuff are called informational
keywords. Typically people who are searching this type of keywords are top of a Conversion
funnel.
Conversion funnel is the journey that search visitors go through on their way to an email
subscription or a premium subscription to the services you offer or a purchase of products
you sell or recommend using your referral link.
For some buyers, research is the most important part when they have to buy a product.
Depending on that, their journey either widens or narrows down. These types of buyers are
Researchers and they spend more time with informational keywords.
Conversion is the action you want from your search visitors. Number of conversions that you
get for every 100 search visitors is called Conversion rate.
People who are at different stages of a conversion funnel use different types of keywords.
It's another new era of digital and marketers are faced with making big bets on their digital strategy. If you are looking at modernizing your tech stack to support your digital evolution, there are a few can't miss (often overlooked) areas that should be part of every conversation. We'll cover setting your vision, avoiding siloes, adding a democratized approach to data strategy, localization, creating critical governance requirements and more. Attendees will walk away with actions they can take into initiatives they are running today and consider for the future.
