This document summarizes an independent audit of UBM's cross-media marketing approach. The audit found clear benefits from using cross-media communications across UBM's print, digital, and event platforms to engage customers. Client interviews revealed that UBM's consultative process helped design effective multi-channel marketing programs that delivered audiences and met objectives like brand awareness, engagement, and lead generation. Core values like brand gravitas, reach, consultancy, intelligent content, and technology skills enhanced campaigns. Clients also benefited from added values such as networking, partnership development, and relationships with UBM journalists.

Cross-Pollinated Marketing: The Blurring of B2B & B2C Strategy using Earned, ...Earthbound Media Group
Most organizations typically lump themselves into one of two different business models – business-to-business or business-to-consumer – and thus follow a pretty traditional marketing plan that falls in line with their target audience. However, industries such as entertainment, education, healthcare, and even consumer products, are demonstrating how an unconventional approach of cross-pollinating brand promises and hyper-targeted messaging across both earned and paid media can reach a more diversified segment of consumers and businesses alike, regardless of who the “buyer” is. This demonstrates a pivotal shift in how they attract customers, culminating in huge results.
We will explore how to challenge the traditional rules of thought in how you view your audience, how to identify cross-pollinating opportunities as well as how and when you can take advantage of your audiences’ online networks, communities, influencers and buying behaviors.
From this webinar you will learn:
1. How to think unconventionally past your traditional marketing routine and audience
2. How to initiate and test cross-pollinated marketing opportunities
3. How to leverage your community and audience funnel to attract new customers
4. How to put a test plan together to experiment with diversifying the media mix without large risk

The next 5 years will hold more change for the advertising industry than the previous 50 did.
The information for this post is from an IBM global surveys of more than 2,400 consumers and 80 advertising experts … the report is titled, The end of advertising as we know it.”
Imagine an advertising world where ... spending on interactive, one-to-one advertising formats surpasses traditional, one-to-many advertising vehicles, and a significant share of ad space is sold through auctions and exchanges. Advertisers know who viewed and acted on an ad, and pay based on real impact rather than estimated “impressions.” Consumers self-select which ads they watch and share preferred ads with peers. User-generated advertising is as prevalent (and appealing) as agency-created spots.
Based on IBM global surveys there are four change drivers shifting control within the ad industry:
Attention — Consumers are increasingly in control of how they view, interact with and filter advertising in a multichannel world.
Creativity — Thanks to technology, the rising popularity of user-generated and peer-delivered content, and new ad revenue-sharing models (e.g., YouTube, Crackle, Current TV), amateurs and semi- professionals are now creating lower-cost advertising content.
Measurement — Advertisers are demanding more individual-specific and involvement- based measurements, putting pressure on the traditional mass-market model.
Advertising inventories — Will be bought and sold through efficient exchanges, bypassing traditional intermediaries.
There is no question that the future of advertising will look radically different from its past. The push for control of attention, creativity, measurements and inventory will reshape the advertising value chain and shift the balance of power.
Keep in mind … this change will also will also impact ad agency new business practices.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Introduction
A new dynamic media environment
Media brands have been an important gateway to reach
markets for many years but will they remain relevant in this
new fragmented media world?
Independent research conducted for UBM shows that vendors benefit
significantly in working with publisher’s brands they recognise as
having gravitas in their markets.
Vendors define brand gravitas in this context as having 5 main
components.
Five main components of brand gravitas:
• The perceived strength of the UBM brands

With these developments comes choice to advertisers and sponsors.
They now have a wider availability of media vehicles they can use to ‘Enabling vendors to

‘Improving engagement
Recent research undertaken for UBM by media insights team Vivid and ROI’
Interface with client side marketing managers indicates that in most
cases B2B media advertising and sponsorship sales is based around a silo ‘Designing marketing
approach with access to one media brand and one mode of delivery; programmes to meet client
an ad in a magazine or on a website or sponsorship of a newsletter or objectives’
exhibiting at a live event.
UBM Built Environment that encompasses media brands such as
Building, Building Design, Property Week and Ecobuild has developed
beyond this silo approach by offering marketing services to clients
through the establishment of their Client Solutions team.
As a result UBM Built Environment through their ‘Client Solutions’ team
provides an opportunity for vendors and buyers to engage with each
other using a variety of marketing tools and cross-media and multi-
channel communications.
The development of this marketing services led approach has been
driven by the desire to give clients greater access to audiences across
multiple channels, improving engagement and ROI.
The core component of the Client Solutions relationship with their
markets is that they are able to offer media solutions based on an
understanding of the clients broader business and marketing needs
through a process of consultation.

Methodology
The success of any marketing initiative is not how good it looks but
how effective it is in meeting the business objectives set out at the
beginning of the process. To understand the success of this marketing
services led approach we interviewed a selection of clients of UBM Built
Environment’s Client Solutions team.
Vivid Interface was provided with a database of all Client Solutions’
customers and twelve companies were selected at random for detailed
interview. While the selection of respondents was random we sought to
ensure that the sample was reflective of the client base.
The interviews were confidential to ensure that clients would feel
comfortable providing us with an accurate report on their relationship
with Client Solutions and their cross-media marketing programme.
The interviews followed a discussion guide developed by Vivid Interface
and the interviews were conducted by a research director with
significant experience in digital, print and face-to-face media.
In addition to the depth telephone interviews, Vivid Interface
undertook an examination of quantitative results data from marketing
services projects focussing specifically on the added-value of cross-media
marketing campaigns utilising print, digital and live face-to-face events.
Finally, we examined in detail the marketing programmes designed
by the Client Solutions team and how they delivered audiences to
‘marketing events’ such as conferences, live webinars, ‘live’ online text
debates, round table discussions and follow-up editorial reports.

Without exception, clients and marketing agencies interviewed were
highly positive about the marketing and business benefits they were
able to gain through the use of cross-media communications to reach

A cross-section of the main comments and perceptions from clients multi-channel campaigns
when they were talking about their cross-media marketing campaigns combined with brand reach’
have been analysed and placed into a word cloud.
‘Multi-channel brand reach
delivers brand awareness’
We can see that the dominant phrases are a mixture of services offered
(full service, industry expertise, creativity and understanding) and the
benefits to be gained from the cross-media methodology and return on
investment expressed as brand awareness.
For these respondents the key to the success of the campaigns they were
involved with was the ability to communicate to their target audiences
using multi-channel campaigns and the combined brand reach into their
markets.
Media Communications Tools
Here we examine the core media used by the clients in the marketing
campaigns and then examine a sample of different marketing
programmes to see how combinations of different media were used.
Advertising within print and website media – the media brand
assets are targeted to different sectors of the construction markets for
both reach and content. Advertising and advertorials can be targeted to
reach defined audiences.
Inevitably for these clients, advertising and editorial activity in these
campaigns was seeking to drive audiences through to a specific

An important benefit to clients is the ability for the Client Solutions marketing campaigns’
team to identify correlations between client needs, construction market
needs and the editorial focus and strategy. ‘Access to the opinions of
people who matter’
The clients and their marketing agencies are dealing with issues that are
of contemporary importance to the readers and viewers and as a result
there are opportunities to develop quality editorial content by reporting
the outcomes of discussions and conferences within the print and digital
titles.
Marketing to email databases – each of the UBM media brands
has rich email databases that are updated regularly at the point of
subscription renewal. In most cases emails sent out to the audiences
contain a call to action and a click-through that will take the viewer to a
website that will deliver an on-demand video, an invitation to attend or
the ability to register for a future event like a webinar, a conference, a
round table or an online text debate.
Marketing to mail databases – for some client campaigns printed
materials are considered an important element in a marketing
campaign.
Social media groups – with increased use of social media within
business, live and online events can have a social media presence
and establish for example a LinkedIn group or an online event page
developed for people with similar interests. Twitter has recently proven
to be of increased importance as it encourages contemporaneous
engagement with audiences and increases reach into markets.

Audience Engagement
The cross-media campaigns invariably have a call to action inviting
audiences to a live or digital event; to view or to participate as well as
raising brand awareness.
Within the scope of this study the events that audiences were invited to
were varied. Some examples are detailed below:
Live events -
The Low Carbon Buildings Conference
The conference was organised to attract 150 targeted industry
professionals to discuss the energy and cost savings that can result by:
- specifying long-life and adaptable materials
- ighlighting the design advantages made by specifying long-life and
