DESCRIPTION

Segment 3 of 3Modern Markering, Demystified.From process to plan, and the pitfalls of uninformed decisions.45min + 15min Q&ASpeaker: Bryan Landaburu, President, Fuze @fuzeAre you a lucky person? Do you have the one idea to save the world? If so, you may not need marketing. For the rest of the many merchants out there, Marketing is a critical element to business success. Most merchants launched their site with great intent, but few actually have a marketing plan to attract and retain customers. Even if you experienced some success out of the gate, without a consistent marketing effort, bringing new and repeat customers to your store will always have limited success. In this session we will boil down multi-channel marketing to its simplest core. There are countless trends and fads out there. More than buzz words, here we will explore traditional and new media concepts that combine both on and offline tactics, goal setting and ROI tracking. A conceptual framework will be discussed and a number of new tools will be reviewed in the form of 25 tools you simply must take a look at.- Find 'em- Get 'em there- Make 'em comfortable- Sell 'em something- Get it to 'em fast- Bring 'em back- Get 'em to tell their friends- RepeatEmail, PPC, microsites, blogs, landing pages, reputation management, reviews, tried & true methods and 25 tools worth a look (or reintroduction)Visit http://ifuze.com/miva for a full overview

“I love oranges, so will everyone else.”I love oranges, so will everyone else.

“I’m not sure we should make the assumption that everyone will loveassumption that everyone will love oranges. Is everyone like you?”

“I am online all the time. I’m hip. I shop online, and I’m smarter than you. Hey, who owns this business? Me or you? ySell the oranges.”

‐ The Management

twitter   #mmconf |   @fuze

The danger of assumptive decisions…• What if you put all your interest in oranges, because the HiPPO, 

agency, etc. told you to?

• What if the HiPPO is wrong?• What if the HiPPO is wrong?

• What are the odds of them being right?

• Should you be taking odds on your business success?Should you be taking odds on your business success?

The results…The results…

twitter   #mmconf |   @fuze

The results…• Bananas were taken 10‐1 over oranges

• People only took oranges when bananas were gone

• People asked if we had more bananasp

• People said that oranges were too hard to open and eat

• We ran the test again (with a new bowl of fruit) and got the same results – this validated our testvalidated our test

• Had we run a test on this sample, we could have probably deducted that we should have purchased more bananas and less oranges

• Bananas are cheaper than oranges and we can sell more that means more $• Bananas are cheaper than oranges and we can sell more, that means more $

• Sorry HiPPO, but you are wrong

twitter   #mmconf |   @fuze

So what?• I’ve oversimplified a complex situation

• If you don’t test and don’t “know”, then you simply, don’t know.

T ti i f• Testing comes in many forms

• Remove yourself from your decisions…your opinion is one, but there are othersthere are others

• Think like your customer does

• Think about who your customer is – persona definition

• Sometimes things cant be explained
