The document provides guidance on effective advertising and campaign planning. It discusses setting objectives, key performance indicators (KPIs), and measuring campaign effectiveness. Objectives should be set with clients and span both soft and hard measures. Effectiveness is measured by comparing metrics like awareness, sales, and profits to objectives. A campaign effects model is recommended to plan how communications create business value by driving attitudes, behaviors, and outcomes. The model helps ensure campaigns are evaluated properly and convince stakeholders of the communications' role and value.

Marketing automation is a software/technology that streamlines, automates, and measures marketing tasks and workflows so that companies can increase their operational efficiency and grow revenue faster. In other words, companies don’t employ marketing automation to automate their marketing. They utilise it to increase revenue quickly, generate high-quality sales-ready leads, measure, and prove marketing Return on Investment (ROI). However, while a handful of companies achieve amazing ROI from marketing automation, others achieve modest gains, and even a few fail to get any value at all.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
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.

7. Why is it important
Because without it
• You don’t know what you’re doing
• The clients don’t know what they are doing
• You will veer off and use energies elsewhere
• And you don’t know when you might have arrived
8. Unfortunately, the research shows that campaigns with single
objectives are dramatically less effective than ones with
multiple objectives.
This suggests marketers should adopt a balanced scorecard
approach, identifying multiple Key Performance Indicators
(KPIs) that span the influence of the campaign – from softer,
intermediate measures, through to harder business
measures. This ensures that we focus on the overall
contribution that a successful campaign makes, not just on
direct attribution to units sold. Here’s an example of a typical
marketing balanced scorecard:
10. Objectives, strategies and tactics
• End
destination
• ‘to…’
Objective
Strategy
• The route to
get there
• ‘by…’
• Specific
actions for the
strategy
• ‘how will we…’
Tactics
12. What are objectives
HARD MEASURES
Increase sales
Increase revenue
Reduce costs
SOFT MEASURES
Awareness
Fame
Consideration
Popularity
Engagement
Trust
Perceptions
Increase margin/price
Increase productivity
Imagery
Recommendation
Satisfaction
Etc.
13. Setting KPIs
Key Performance Indicators
• Choose the main 5 indicators, which encapsulates your
objectives
Drive
engagement
• Time spent on
website
• Depth of visit
Increase
purchase intent
• Increase ‘top
2 box’
purchase
intent
• Metrics are things you measure, but not a direct indicator
of success
14. NB
Careful to distinguish between an objective and an outcome
Objective: what we are trying to do/achieve
Outcome: are the changes, benefits, learning or other effects
that happen as a result of your work. They can be wanted or
unwanted, expected or unexpected.

34. WORK BACKWARDS
Start from the bottom and work back through the model:
How will the comms create profit?
What behaviour do we need?
What attitudinal change do we need?
What comms engagement do we need?
35. SET OBJECTIVES THAT WILL STRETCH THE BRAND
IPA research shows brands that set tangible and stretching
business and marketing objectives are more effective
36. THINK ABOUT NON-OBVIOUS EFFECTS
Distribution
Price premium
Usage occasion
Non discounting
Staff costs
Credit rating
Market capitalisation
37. THINK ABOUT SECONDARY AUDIENCES
Trade
Staff
Investors
Potential employees
Suppliers
Government
38. GROUP EXERCISE
In groups of five
Choose one of the campaigns on the wall
Take five minutes
Develop a comms model
40. NOT PROFIT BUT IS FINANCIAL
Charities and governments may not need a profit.
But there will be a financial effect of the comms.
If we can prevent a handful of drink driving incidents,
what is the financial impact?
42. 1. HELP DEVELOP GREAT CREATIVE
Sets a solid base for campaign development
Helps prevent client briefs from changing
Provides confidence for clients to be brave
43. 2. ENSURES COMMS ARE EVALUATED PROPERLY
Sets the expectations about how our work should work
Stops our ideas being judged against the wrong measures
Ensures we set the agenda (not media agencies or others)
44. 3. HELPS CLIENTS TO CONVINCE STAKEHOLDERS
Many of our ideas are crippled by stakeholders .
Often non-marketing people not understanding,
the role or value of the comms.
A comms model can empower our clients.
45. 4. PUTS A VALUE TO WHAT WE DO
What are we worth?
What are our ideas worth?
Are they worth the time we put in
or the effect they can have?
