Viral Traffic is something most marketers would practically kill for, yet it’s often more elusive than the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot! It can be tough to get viral traffic, but as you’ve undoubtedly seen others do it, you know it’s possible. So why exactly is viral traffic so valuable, anyway? Well, it’s somewhat like the power of word-of-mouth marketing. You’ve undoubtedly heard how valuable word-of-mouth marketing is, right? It’s a form of social proof. Let me ask you a question. If you were looking to buy something, who would you be more likely to trust… the salesperson who stands to gain a commission for selling you the product, or a good friend or family member who recommends the product as one they have tried and loved?

What's In Store for In-Store Digital - BWW - 2009

Michael Stich

Today’s consumers live in a digital world. Product reviews, price comparisons, and smart recommendations are their baseline expectations. And consumers are more time-crunched than ever, with leisure time declining from 26 hours per week in 1973 to 16 today according to a recent Harris Poll. With more to do, and less time to do it in, it’s no wonder that today’s consumers demand greater personalization and selection in the products they buy, and more efficiency in how they buy them. Retailers are working to meet these needs by bringing digital inside the store and are seeking in essence to become a “Digital Concierge” that guides and serves the shopper. However, bringing digital conveniences into the store is a complicated challenge, one that requires the right principles to succeed. In this presentation, Bridge Worldwide provides a landscape assessment and framework with seven principles for success for Digital In-Store.

Marketing for Manufacturing with Wakefield Manufacturing Forum

Dave Pannell MCIM

Many manufacturing companies still rely on pre-Internet strategies to find new business, but with customers becoming unwilling to directly engage with a supplier until late on in their decision-making process, traditional opportunities to directly ‘sell’ have become limited. These slides made up a three-hour 'marketing for manufacturers bootcamp' in conjunction with Wakefield Manufacturing Forum as part of Wakefield Business Week. Slides 1-20 Business growth expert Mark Prince talks about why a manufacturer has to first create a point of difference and embrace how the world of business has changed. Young, agile companies are disrupting every industry and manufacturing is no different. Slides 21-62 The Chartered Institute of Marketing's Ambassador for Manufacturing Dave Pannell looks at the changing behaviour of the industrial buyer and explores the culture clash between marketing and manufacturing. Dave then explains the strategies for marketing a manufacturing company, from company branding to marketing to your own team. Slides 63-87 Sales guru Stewart Leahy then talks about digital marketing tactics, and how websites really generate referrals by being part of a wider strategy of digital marketing activity - including Google PPC, email marketing and remembering to pick up the phone!
