Editor's Notes
- what’s the problem? - lots of new channels; each takes an expert; don’t know how to measure, prioritize or compare; don’t have time or money to try them all; on top of usual pressures to produce immediate results, be more nimble; not enough to run each channel separately -- must coordinate across media for best impact - so, the problem is: how do you optimize your marketing mix; i.e., decide which channels to use and how to use them, and implement your decisions
- short answer: testing - establish objectives for new media; test to see how well can deliver; plan for deployment and execute - recognize that results will improve over time
- long answer: analytical environment - need to put individual tests into context - requirements for this include: - disciplined process to gather resources, design meaningful tests, read results, AND DEPLOY successes - baseline business model to understand current environment, how existing programs perform, how they interact and relate to long-term results - technology platform to execute tests and, in particular, gather results; although typically execute tests externally, MUST gather consolidated results and must have long-term path to integration

- - document contributors to customer value, e.g. acquisition costs + retention period + value/year; could be more granular if you have the data - then, drill into contributing factors e.g. acquisition cost and customer value by channel, by customer segment; cost and impact of retention programs by channel and segment; drill into funnel stages e.g. awareness, interest, desire, action LTV = Acquisition Cost + (Value/Year x Years/Customer) - ideally, find industry benchmarks to see where you’re weak or strong; can be hard; even without, can set hurdles relative to own performance

- - define objectives (based on company goals e.g. acquisition, new products, retention, etc., weaknesses in existing funnel ), identify alternatives (based on industry info, understand how they are used, likely results, suitable industries, prerequisites in data, skills, technology ), assess resources (skills, budgets, data); select by matching alternatives, resources & goals to prioritize (recognize different alternatives have different applications); desi gn proper tests (control groups, measurable data, large enough to read), execute , read results (short- and long-term), deploy results; learn and refine (must have standard, visible reporting so can’t bury mistakes; Aberdeen: disciplines process is one of key distinguishing features for best in class); should set aside reasonable budget for testing – fail quickly - marketing mix modeling: formal modeling to optimize allocations; works with known, stable rather than unknown, new media; also need but is refinement applied to stable industry - consider ‘meta process’ of portfolio of tests, balance across channels, anticipated changes in business (e.g. move towards Internet)

- - ideally, central customer database w/data from all channels linked to individuals - this works in database marketing, where control most messages; not so much in either brand marketing or (some) online marketing, where may not know individual customers at all, or may have semi-anonymous ID e.g. cookie, site registration; often can link via email address but not always; if not, then can still use channel-specific measures with high coverage, or samples against panels or surveys; better approximately right than precisely wrong; increasingly possible to integrate data e.g. social media handle, demographics/clusters based on IP geotargeting, behavioral segments within ad networks - cross channel in particular requires central execution platform: starts with profile, includes scoring, message selection, lists for outbound direct mail / email / phone; realtime interactions by Web, phone; possibly ad serving; social media tracking and execution e.g. case mgt, sentiment analysis, influence measurement; also content mgt, selection & reuse (“content grazing”); integrated testing and tracking

- can’t properly select what to test until you know what your business needs are, per your business model
- - identify alternatives 5 SM app types (see Silverpop ppt) (25% generate awareness, 18% customer engagement, 16% engage analysts/influencers, 15% market products, 14% monitor and respond, 8% competitive tracking, 4% other); different needs for each e.g. network ads, mobile apps, email names, leadership content, blog traffic; Toyota: monitor & respond; had previous experience e.g. with Scion ‘crowdsourcing’ for customization
- - define objectives: (depends on situation – awareness, interest, decision, action); Toyota: maintain customer loyalty, address uncertainties
- - select: match alternatives, resources & goals to prioritize (matrix & scoring):

- - select: match alternatives, resources & goals to prioritize (matrix & scoring):
- - design proper tests (set goals, pick metrics, define size and timeframe, estimate value): metrics - web traffic, qualified leads, customer loyalty/retention, brand awareness, revenue; Toyota: traffic & attitudes
- - execute : plan carefully; use external resources as necessary; monitor execution closely for glitches; ensure metrics gathering is in place; Toyota: http://toyotaconversations.com/ ; assigned team of 6-8 people to monitor; reached out to advocates
- - deploy results (deployment process): scaling is issue in manual social media; need steady stream of content; some campaigns have specific shelf-life but then is hard to justify value (depends on goal – e.g., product intro is one-time anyway); long-term goal is usually to build on-going community
