‘Driving Digital Strategies Through Customer Engagement’

Introduction

What should marketers focus on to improve their digital marketing in 2017?

The biggest driver of digital transformation is ‘Customer Experience’.

Growing and scaling your brand is now easier yet trickier than ever. The prevalence of mobile has enabled more personal interactions between brands and people.

Brands can now track individual customer behavior in real-time. It allows you to tailor-fit experiences on personal scales.

At the same time, these interactions empower the customer to get closer to you which greatly affect the outcome of every engagement.

Key Seminar Topics

Day 1, March 08, 2017

1. Trends in Online Advertising

There are remarkable changes in online advertising to watch out for in 2017: dominance of video ads, native advertising, social media as a conversion platform, dedicated apps, immersive user experience, flat design principles for digital, and many more!

Explore these trends and see what fits your brand.

2. Using Data Analytics for Brand Building Strategies

Do you use Google Analytics or rely on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or LinkedIn Analytics?

Using the best or having a combination of the best performance analytics tool can spell success for your brand. How does analytics works? What are the strategic metrics to track and analyze?

3. Using Content Marketing to Drive Customer Engagement

According tor research shared by Harvard Business Review, it costs significantly, more up to 25x, to acquire new customers than to retain the customers you currently have. If the majority of your focus is on acquisition, then, you risk neglecting the happiness of your current customers.

Your content may sufficiently answer your audience’s questions and help them solve their problems, but how much does it delight them – enough to have a measurable impact?

4. Create an Engaging Customer Mobile Experience

Do you know how to employ, engage, and interact with your mobile audience?

The most effective way to engage customers is through their mobile devices. Smartphones are now widely used and consumers check their mobile multiple times a day. A recent survey revealed that of the 82% of Twitter users said they watch videos on a regular basis, a staggering 90% of them watch in their mobile devices.

Google reveals that more than half of their searches are initiated on mobile. Such percentage is expected to climb as users spend more and more time attached to and absorbed by their smartphones

5. Leveraging on Social Listening Tools

It is more than just listening to the Voice of the Customer (VoC), but rather, how well do you listen to VoC amidst the noise. Social listening tools help you to track, analyze, and leverage social media conversations more effectively.

6. Telling Your Brand Story in Digital Creatives

People love visual storytelling which comes in short or long form, snippets, streaming, etc. This consumption shift requires that content be produced more quickly and efficiently which drives brands to be more nimble.

7. Reaching Your Audience Through Video, Video Sharing and Live Video Streaming

Get these facts: shoppers who view video are 1.81x more likely to purchase than non-viewers. Retailers cite 40% increases in purchases as a result of videos. But your video outputs won’t be successful without the right strategies to properly promote it to correct audiences.

Social media users are beginning to demand more in-the-moment content, giving them a vicarious view into a world (or event) they had previously been unable to access. Live video has become something of a trend on its own, with more and more apps and platforms giving some kind of ‘live streaming’ functionality.

Live video has been on an upward streak for the last few years, but in 2017 will be the year when it fully takes off, utilized by more brands and more individuals than ever.

8. Learning the New Email Marketing Strategies

According to a McKinsey study, email marketing is 40x better at acquiring new customers than social media. But mobile has changed everything for email in terms of consumption volume, design techniques, video usage, and data collection. Data usage are all motivated by the rise of handheld devices.

Day 2, March 09, 2017

1. Building Your Brand with Mobile and Web Apps

You needed a mobile-optimized website. Mobile and web apps are now widely used in the market and they are reliable, fast and engaging. Building a progressive mobile and web apps have benefits and making it easy to delight your users, grow engagement, and increase conversions.

2. Mobile Search and Optimization

The ubiquitous presence of hand-held devices and fading away of desktop traffic clearly indicates that the smart money rests on mobile-focused internet marketing.

Mobile search and mobile optimization should, therefore, be a top priority for digital marketers in the year 2017.

3. Updates in Search Algorithm

Search engine giants will keep on updating their algorithm to decide which content should get priority and rank higher in search engine result pages (SERPs).

Therefore, the only strategy should be to remain original, informative, and helpful to your audience. Digital marketers are focused on Google, FaceBook and Bing’s algorithm as giant search engines.

4. The Rise of Augmented Reality (AR)

Few people would have predicted that Pokémon Go would have taken off as radically as it did, earning $10 million a day in new revenue during its peak.

The app had two main effects on the online marketing community: one, it is shown that users are ready for augmented reality (AR) experiences, and two, it has given marketers a taste of the earning potential. You can expect to see more brands coming out with AR games, AR ads, and attempts to capitalize on AR apps that already exist.

5. Improve Your Website Conversion Rate Optimisation Through Better UX Design

Conversion rate optimisation (CRO) make the user’s life easy. The method of using analytics and user feedback to improve customer experience (UX) on the website are necessary to attain better ROI and overall performance of your website.

6. What’s Exciting About Digital Out-Of-Home (OOH)?
