Campaign Strategies That Overcome Shopper Barriers
Effective Shopper Marketing Mastery Program 301
(Virtual Half Day Workshop)
Pre-requisite: ANA Effective Shopper Marketing Workshop 201 (or equivalent knowledge)
Virtual Workshop Description
Shopper Marketing is more than just tactical approaches to boosting sales by using coupons. It is a powerful marketing communication discipline that drives shopper behaviors for a desired outcome.
In fact, when properly executed, Shopper Marketing is THE discipline that formally allows sales activities (even short term) to be aligned with brand strategies for long-term brand building impact. But if your Shopper Marketing brief lacks clear and data-supported creative direction, it will hinder effective campaigns and negatively impact sales.
In this workshop, marketers will learn what is required for an effective Shopper Marketing creative brief to avoid costly brand missteps. Building on earlier exposure to the 9-step Shopper Marketing Planning Process (Effective Shopper Marketing Workshop 101) and Shopper Marketing objectives, targets and expected behavior changes (Effective Shopper Marketing Workshop 201), you will learn:
- How to build a Shopper Marketing creative brief from a client brief or a brand brief - as the key driver for any creative work for your Shopper Marketing campaign
- How to effectively integrate your Shopper Marketing objectives, target, expected behavior change, and persona development decisions into the development of a Shopper Marketing creative brief
- How to properly formulate Shopper Barriers that clearly explain why the expected behavior change is not yet occurring, and
- How to set a Shopper Creative Strategy that will be the most effective at overcoming the identified barriers and obtaining the expected behavior change.
This engaging, interactive, practice-driven workshop will be facilitated by Shopper Marketing professionals and educators. In addition, as co-authors on a book on this subject, they have surveyed the Shopper Marketing industry to develop a clear step by step planning process to align Shopper Marketing with Marketing and develop effective Shopper Marketing campaigns.
This is the third installment in the ANA’s six-part series “Effective Shopper Marketing Mastery Program”, where participants learn skills and knowledge necessary to excel in the competitive retail landscape. In this installment, participants build on the experience they gained learning how to develop powerful marketing strategies that drive engagement and revenue to now design a Shopper Marketing creative brief.
