Moreover, is there a measurable difference in ROI with higher levels of brand attachment for the owned content? In this session, discover a new objective measurement approach leveraged by Cotton Inc. to link owned content to demand and describe the ROI in terms of both revenue and brand attachment.

TOTAL SOCIAL: HOW WORD OF MOUTH IS DRIVING GROWTH FOR AVON'S GLOBAL BUSINESS

Avon has built its business on the power of word of mouth. The advocacy generated by its 6 million sales representatives around the world represent a key asset of the firm, as do the 60 million customers and prospects they touch every year. Indeed, every brand has an enormous asset in the social value of the people who sell and recommend the brand. That’s why Avon has implemented a global measurement program to track both offline and online conversations and recommendations about the brand. The company has committed to a “social marketing” strategy as part of its ambitious 3-year plan to “introduce a new generation of women to a brand we know they will love.” It is using consumer research to provide KPIs that the CMO and senior leadership team use to inform its growth agenda and hold itself accountable. Avon’s Global VP of Marketing Intelligence will share the brand’s story of why this became a key priority for the C-suite, and the measurement system it has built as bridge between branding, digital marketing and social selling.
