Social media tools like Pinterest make it easier than ever to tell our stories and engage communities of fans online. In this session you will learn how to tell the story of your brand leveraging sites like Pinterest and gain tactical tools you can immediately apply to your own marketing and PR plan.

Tuesday, April 22, 14
3. What’s Going On With LivingSocial?
Cons
• Highly competitive market
• Increasingly difficult to make a profit
with high competition
Pros
• Highly recognized brand in the
category
• 25% of the DDS category marketshare
LivingSocial is in the Daily Deal Sites (DDS) category
Tuesday, April 22, 14
4. What’s Going On With LivingSocial?
Recent Tactics
• Everything to everybody
• Email blast current members extensively
• No major push to gain new customers
• High focus on the low cost daily deals
LivingSocial is in the Daily Deal Sites (DDS) category
Tuesday, April 22, 14
5. So What’s The Problem?
Daily Deal Sites Category Structure
High Points
of Parity
Low Barriers
of Entry
Low Brand
Preference
High Focus on Low Price
Tuesday, April 22, 14
6. High Focus on Low Price
When this happens, the category tends to draw in a low-spend
target market, attracting a consumer that begins the purchase
process by wanting to spend the lowest amount of money possible.
So What’s The Problem?
Tuesday, April 22, 14
7. So How Do We Fix It?
Shoot the gap!
LivingSocial needs to create a niche by focusing on their main, higher-ticket, point
of difference (their Escapes), and shoot for the gap between the lower priced
Daily Deal Sites (DDS) and the higher-priced, less-organized vacation sites.
Tuesday, April 22, 14
8. Strategic Decisions:
Marketing Objective
Increase sales of Escapes by targeting higher-spend, time-crunched, financially savvy
individuals who don't have the resources (i.e. time, patience, etc.) to plan the lifestyle they
want.
Communications Objective
Convince the target audience that the lifestyle they desire is within reach, without sacrificing
their retirement or work commitments.
Rationale
To “shoot the gap” LivingSocial must remember that, though the target is willing to spend
larger amounts of money on a purchase, they are still searching for discounts. Financial
acumen remains a large factor in their decision, otherwise they would be drawn by any
random vacation site.
Tuesday, April 22, 14
9. Strategic Decisions:
Target Market
• The Bridled Grinder is a 30-40 year old, career-oriented, daily-grind professional,
• Raised by the money conscious, middle-class, baby boomers.They have grown up
experiencing their parents “going out, socializing and “living life,” while maintaining careers
that lead them to a comfortable retirement.
• They work long hours and rarely take time to research and plan activities in their social
life (time outside of work).
• They crave a well-rounded lifestyle that will make them feel like they are succeeding in all
aspects of life, both professionally and socially.
• They need experiences to be ready-made, at a reasonable price, and worth the
expenditure of their limited free time.
Tuesday, April 22, 14
10. Strategic Decisions:
Target Market Rationale
• This group spends almost as much on travel and leisure as the older cusp of their
generation, but have not reached the height of their careers with regard to net income.
• They are saving for retirement, but have yet to feel the pinch of time closing in on their
nest egg.
• They still feel that they can spend a little less frugally on convenience for the ability to
experience life, while keeping a keen grasp on their financial goals and future.
• They task themselves with maintaining no less than the lifestyle they were raised with,
even though it took their parents a lifetime to build.
Tuesday, April 22, 14
11. Strategic Decisions:
Value Proposition
Functional Benefits (“I can”):
I can afford and enjoy a social side to round out my lifestyle, because LivingSocial has
ready-made experiences created by trend-savvy experts at affordable prices.
Emotional Benefits (“I feel”):
I feel like I am living a more fulfilled life, because I am able to participate in more social
experiences. Note: emotion (limbic system) can’t process affordability or financial savvy.
Self-Expressive (“I am”):
I am successful, savvy, and live a well-rounded life.
Tuesday, April 22, 14
12. Strategic Decisions:
Customer Relationship
Customers are busy, financially savvy lifestyle seekers who trust LivingSocial to take care
of the details for the social side of their well-rounded lifestyle.
Convince the Bridled Grinder that the lifestyle they desire is within reach, because
LivingSocial will manage the time and planning of their social experiences to help make
their life more about living, not planning to live.
Basic Strategy
Rounded out lifestyles, within range.
Key Proposition
Tuesday, April 22, 14

Ambient Promotion
Location:
Street lights in heavily populated, high traffic areas in cities.
Media:
Banners that attach to the sides of street lights. Large,
arching banners that resemble palm leaves would be
attached to the light pole and reach out from all four sides

Additional round banners resembling coconuts would hold
different messages throughout the city.

26. Message Strategy
Ambient Promotion Rationale
Many of the target market will need to be

serve to make the target aware of the the
promotion and continue to reinforce brand
recognition while they are more offline.
(i.e. driving, walking, etc.)
