The Great Dis-Content: Tackling Content in a Website RedesignAndrea Zoellner
*** These slides accompany a talk given at WordCamp Kansas City on June 11, 2016. ***
Revamping the design of a website can be a fun and exciting project. Hopefully, the result is a prettier and more user-friendly site. But don’t forget about content! It’s easy to be consumed by theme design and features while overlooking the impact of a content review on the success of your website redesign.
I’ll share best practices for good website content, audits, and page rewrites while handling the challenges of simultaneous design and text overhauls.
This talk is aimed at webmasters, small business owners, web developers, or anyone interested in tips for effective copywriting, information hierarchy, and project management.
Architecting Your Content For the Unknown ConsumerRichard Jones
Whilst CMS communities talk headless, the market is starting to talk CaaS (Content as a Service), in which content is created and managed independently of the place it will be consumed. CaaS becomes especially important when considering the Internet of Things or more traditional end points such as websites and mobile apps. Over time, this could mean everything from your TV or watch to your fridge. This session will look at how eZ can be used to offer CaaS by positioning it as the Digital Hub of the enterprise.

Drupal 8 Lessons From the Field: What is Continuous Delivery and Why it’s imp...Acquia
Optimize your entire Drupal project. Regardless of your technical fluency, join us to learn how to streamline front and back end Drupal 8 development and make applications that lasts. ‘Drupal 8 Lessons From the Field’ is a 3-part educational series led by Pavithra and Ron - Acquia solution architects with a combined 20 years of Drupal experience. We’ll start with the foundational tools you’ll need and work towards tangible tips to make everything faster - from delivery to performance.
This webinar is for anyone involved in the process of creating digital experiences - both technical and non-technical. You’ll come away with a solid understanding of the high level concepts and specific useful examples.
How would you like to have a robot that is able to help your team write better code, faster, and with fewer errors? What if this robot could alert you of bugs or errors before they were introduced? Would you be interested if this robot were able to rebuild the entire codebase from scratch, test every component, and look for any errors...each time you add new code?
This is not a dream! Continuous delivery is a set of tools and techniques that enable your team to build its own "robot" (automated system) to do just that. Using these tools, you can ensure that your team can create better applications, can roll it out faster, and can introduce fewer bugs and errors.
This is the secret to high performance development teams, and it is what we will be sharing with you in this webinar. You will learn:
What continuous delivery means
Why it matters
How it impacts and improves your business
Different terms, tools, and options
Practical examples

Marketing is in the midst of a fundamental change. Generic websites with static content once constituted an efficient marketing strategy; today’s teams, however, are building personalized experiences accessible through multiple channels and devices. The logic: a journey tailored to each user improves engagement, converts more leads and accelerates revenue generation.
The latest iteration of Acquia Lift unifies content and customer context into one platform. With Lift, organizations can deliver personalized content across the buyer's journey, at scale.</p>
Join ICF Olson’s Director of Marketing Technologies, Jim Vogel and Acquia Lift’s Product Manager, Dave Ingram, to learn about:
Requirements for a successful marketing and technology personalization strategy
Why the best forms of personalization don’t involve visitors realizing it’s personalized
Acquia Lift’s new drag-and-drop interface that works on any website
How Lift enables personalization across any channel via API or universal JavaScript tag
Acquia Content Hub: Connect Technologies & Extend Systems to Source ContentAcquia
Today’s technology landscape is riddled with constantly evolving web platforms, exciting new technologies, and stubborn legacy systems. It’s easy for your business counterparts, who are rapidly creating content for these many sites and channels, to lose sight of what content is created and where it lives.
As a result, data and content are locked in back-end systems across your organization. And because it’s difficult and expensive to connect technologies, you and your team end up wasting time and resources in efforts to publish that content on the web.</p>
In our upcoming webinar, we’ll show you how Acquia Content Hub:
-Integrates with different technologies and legacy systems with our Rest API
-Normalizes content across systems through our CDF format
-Empowers Drupal developers to extend our Drupal modules for additional Drupal functionality
-Increases efficiencies, so your team can spend more time innovating, rather than searching and re-creating content
-Speeds your time to market with content rich sites
We are looking forward to sharing some exciting updates to our partner program with you. We can’t say much more here, but tune in (you’ll want to be there). Joe, Meg, and Patrick will walk you through the changes and leave plenty of time for questions. See you there!
OpenEDU - A Drupal 8 Distribution to Jumpstart Higher Education WebsitesAcquia

Still, customizing your website from the ground up is expensive.

Across the spectrum different approaches to progressively decoupled drupal (...Acquia
Progressive decoupling is a compelling approach to building Drupal’s front end where content editors, site assemblers, and front-end developers all maintain contiguous experiences.

Webinar: Vodafone and The Connected Customer Journey [10.19.2017]Acquia
Vodafone, one of the world’s largest telecom providers, has rolled out in-store screens delivering product info, images, and offers to thousands of retail locations in dozens of countries, leveraging the Acquia Platform to do it.
Aneta Rutkowska, technology program manager for retail channels at Vodafone, told marketers at a Figaro Digital conference in the UK last year that in-store screens are no longer just one silo for content delivery, they’re part of a continuous, end to end customer journey that includes web and mobile, digital campaigns, and now, in-store screens and signage showing offers, product info, and images. “From a content management perspective, we created a single platform we are moving all of our content to it… This is our ultimate goal,” she said in her presentation.
Vodafone, working with Acquia, built a platform that will eventually serve Vodafone retail locations in a minimum of 26 countries and thousands of stores, she said. Content can be translated and localised for local markets; and in-store displays can present content based on which area in the store the displays are set up - promoting broadband services, or new handsets, or anything else, based on location in each store.
Is your digital experience platform capable of delivering a truly end to end experience?

- How to deliver cross-platform, multi channel experiences
- Ways to personalise for context based on time of day, or physical location within a store, rather than, say user profile
- How to track engagement from multiple channels, and use that to drive strategic and tactical improvements
Building a foundation for the future of digital experience (oct 31, 2017)Acquia

Similar to Personalization How-To: Driving Conversions with Acquia Lift (20)
"Your customer data flows faster each day, which is why collecting, organizing, and doing something meaningful with it is just good business.
But, it can be tough to do.
Stashing data in different places across your organization to come back (hopefully) later is a great way to mismanage or lose it. Squirrels can stash, but enterprises can’t.
You need a customer data platform (CDP). A central command center that securely holds your customer data and lets you organize it according to your goals.
The thing is, what’s best for you? A CDP out-of-the-box? Building a customer data solution yourself? There’s merit in both options, and this webinar is here to help you narrow down what’s best for your business. Acquia, Bounteous, and Appnovation will show you:
How a single source for customer data storage can mitigate risk and optimize customer experience
How central data governance will help your customer data strategy once the almighty Google takes away cookies

Taking Your Multi-Site Management at Scale to the Next LevelAcquia

With a strong foundation, next-level digital strategies such as multi-channel content management and personalization can be incorporated into your multi-site management.

Leave Local Dev Behind: Start Writing Your Code In The CloudAcquia

At this informative webinar, you’ll learn how to make it happen for your organization.
Overwhelmed with data from different sources and systems?Acquia
We know a well-defined customer data management framework can help ensure that valuable customer data is not locked up in silos, but rather flows freely across the organization, not only providing a single source of truth to marketing and other customer-facing functions such as sales and service; but also enabling real-time, data-driven responses to customer actions.
According to Forrester, “On average, between 60% and 73% of all data within an enterprise goes unused for analytics.” Today there is a data deluge in most organizations, where millions of data points are coming into the system from thousands of customer touchpoints across diverse channels, platforms and devices.
Organisations first need to understand what and how data needs to be ingested into the system to effectively use a customer data platform.
The problem is, many of us face multiple challenges with integrating a CDP with all current/pre-existing relevant systems (BI, CRM, MA, 3rd Party Industry Data, etc.).
In this session (https://youtu.be/yzH_DS-Mkl8) you will learn:
- The first step in building a practical customer data integration plan and strategy.
- How to unify all data from different sources to gain a 360° view of customers (Identity Resolution)
- How to strategically and effectively deliver relevant and useful experiences based on customer data at scale
Customer expectations are evolving and brands are expected to be able to deliver meaningful personalization that can engage them through their customer journey. The effective use of a customer data platform (CDP) enables brands to address the new ‘paradigm of personalization’ for real business outcomes.
Even if you have access to manage multiple customer touchpoints (for ie. sales, accounts and service) to have a ‘single source of truth’ when it comes to customer data, have you been able to deliver a consistent, seamless and unfragmented customer experience based on that single source of truth at scale?
For marketers who are struggling with delivering more personalised, interactive and impactful experiences and campaigns, some help can be in the form of marketing automation.
In this session (https://youtu.be/MdxOTvbIEzk) you will learn:
How data sources are connected; how data needs to freely flow back and forth and how can this be activated by martech solutions for desired conversion results?
How a strong CDP strategy - with necessary processes in place, allows organizations to personalize the customer journey and deliver a seamless Customer Experience (CX
Today, consumers interact with brands across multiple channels.
This gives brands a multitude of opportunities to collect more customer data and use it to enhance customer experiences.
Unfortunately, this data gets stored in departmental and functional silos, and brands seldom utilize this data to their utmost potential.
Although we often read articles along the lines of ‘we live in the data economy’ or ‘data is the new oil,’ it stands true only for organizations that manage their customer data effectively.
That's why our latest webinar series is designed to help you understand and establish a key link in the larger conversation around better leveraging organizational data – including of course customer data – to drive profitability and differentiated customer experiences.
In this session (https://youtu.be/VPQC5-gQJ4Q) you will learn:
- How a CDP can be relevant to your business?
- Use cases on effective applications of CDPs to achieve desired results

E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.
