WINNING THROUGH ANALYTICS

Why do people buy? While billions of user records are collected and analyzed many organizations still find the decision making process of what to do with the information uncovered frustrating.  There often is an inability to correctly credit the sales among various media and meet their ROI goal.  Winning companies, especially retail organizations, are breaking down the walls between digital attribution analytics, marketing mix modeling and customer segment analytics. During this session, Dan Eggleston will use case studies, including a retail example, plus draw on his personal experience on the integration of these approaches to align predictive analytics with the current marketing ecosystem.

EIGHT SOCIAL STRATEGIES PROVEN TO DRIVE MARKETING RESULTS

Brands can either talk about themselves or let their best customers do the talking. The latter is more believable and effective. With trust in advertising falling sharply, marketers who use social as an ad channel are fighting against a strong headwind. But with trust in personal recommendations at 92 percent and growing, marketers who use social strategies to spur real advocacy get the wind at their backs. Doug Levy will share the social strategies that can drive marketing results.
