This document summarizes Melissa Cox's presentation on email marketing best practices. Some key points include: 1) Emails should tease or reveal just enough information to compel recipients to open the email like a store window displays items. 2) Testing different subject lines, senders, content, and photos (A/B testing) is important to see what performs best like in March Madness tournaments. 3) Elements like clear calls to action, relevant images of people, and following style guides can help make emails more effective just as strategic planning and defining success metrics are important.

The Most Popular Influencer Is Almost Never the One You Really Need
This deck, presented at BrightonSEO April 2019, focuses on a few tips to help social media marketers refine their influencer marketing research to make sure they find the right people for their brand.
How to use Content Marketing in eCommerce
Great content should be the focus point of your marketing efforts to ensure the future success of your online store. Why? Because customers are information seekers at heart, especially when they buy online, so what better way to "feed their need" than to give them what they really want! We'll be discussing how to use content marketing in eCommerce, along with some best practice tips, and then open the floor up to find out which strategies are working for merchants, which ones they'd like to try, and how this is changing online buying behaviours.
Speak to Your Audience in Their Own Words By Brad Geddes
This document discusses how to target ads based on gender and age demographics. It provides information on the different language preferences and priorities of each group. For example, women tend to use more emotional language while men focus more on objects and actions. Younger audiences care about trends and affordability while older audiences focus on style and comfort. The document recommends testing ads with different messaging tailored for specific demographics and examining results to improve performance.
Using social media for internal communication
The document discusses using social media for internal communication. It provides examples of how social media can benefit organizations by opening new feedback channels, encouraging collaboration across silos, and acting as a searchable knowledge base. However, the document also cautions that most companies have not fully tapped the potential of social media due to lack of leadership and overemphasis on technology alone. It stresses that companies must develop social media strategies that engage workers and pull them into using new tools, rather than just implementing technologies.

Description:
In partnership with Seattle Tech4Good.
In today’s world, nonprofits cannot avoid communicating with donors, supporters, clients, and policymakers through digital mediums. Knowing this, how can nonprofits amplify their voice and communicate their mission?
Digital Communication encompasses all the words, videos, infographics, charts and data you produce through your website, social media channels, emails and various other tools you might use for communication. Some communication is automated yet most of it is written by your marketing and communications person(s), your social media managers, program leads, ED’s or perhaps even interns, volunteers or board members.
This three-and-a-half hour workshop is structured to help you understand what digital communications is and discover some strategies and tactics you can use to communicate your organizational mission, reach the right people, maximize your time and resources, and amplify your impact. In addition to reviewing strategy, messaging, and best practices, we'll also discuss how to leverage technology.
This hands-on, interactive workshop will be divided into sessions where you will hear answers to the above questions and much more. Through presentations, breakout exercises and Q&A you will be able to learn from the two speakers as well as from each other. You will walk away with a much better understanding of where your needs and gaps are, and what you are doing well.

In the face of the news of Google beginning to remove cookies from Chrome (30m users at the time of writing), there’s no longer time for marketers to throw their hands up and say “I didn’t know” or “They won’t go through with it”. Reality check - it has already begun - the time to take action is now. The good news is that there are solutions available and ready for adoption… but for many the race to catch up to the modern internet risks being a messy, confusing scramble to get back to "normal"From Hope to Despair The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics.pptx
From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

We’ve entered a new era in digital. Search and AI are colliding, in more ways than one. And they all have major implications for marketers.
• SEOs now use AI to optimize content.
• Google now uses AI to generate answers.
• Users are skipping search completely. They can now use AI to get answers. So AI has changed everything …or maybe not. Our audience hasn’t changed. Their information needs haven’t changed. Their perception of quality hasn’t changed. In reality, the most important things haven’t changed at all. In this session, you’ll learn the impact of AI. And you’ll learn ways that AI can make us better at the classic challenges: getting discovered, connecting through content and staying top of mind with the people who matter most. We’ll use timely tools to rebuild timeless foundations. We’ll do better basics, but with the most advanced techniques. Andy will share a set of frameworks, prompts and techniques for better digital basics, using the latest tools of today. And in the end, Andy will consider - in a brief glimpse - what might be the biggest change of all, and how to expand your footprint in the new digital landscape.
