Jim SterneFoundereMetrics Summit
Back for the 6th year, eMetrics is one of those conferences that you come away from having made a big gain in practical knowledge - either from the sessions, the people you met during networking or from talking to vendors. A conference where at the end you feel a little tired, but excited to start applying what you heard and learned. And when others ask you about it, you’ll be able to say it was an eye-opening experience, a good use of your time and a worthwhile investment.
We’ve thought long and hard about the themes, tracks and sessions, with one goal in mind - to create an optimal conference experience. We’ve gathered some of the best thinkers and practitioners in digital analytics, and built in lots of space for formal and informal learning.
Don’t sit back and don’t relax. There are no dumb questions (if you’re thinking about it, chances are half the room is too). So ask. Follow up. Introduce yourself. Dig deeper. Network like crazy. You’ll be rewarded.
Looking forward to meeting you at the Summit.

how capital one Boosted adoption of a Mobile app Using “Traditional” channelsHow do you encourage adoption of a new mobile app when your customers aren’t engaging with you on mobile devices? Capital One met this challenge using email and interstitials. Success meant not only engagement, but re-engagement from mobile-attrited customers. Some messages had higher conversion rates with certain segments, and these “traditional” channels were key for continued engagement and raising awareness about new features. Learn how Capital One achieved all of this by leveraging metrics, how they decreased abandonment from messaging upon first login and more.

Privacy, cookies and analytics: a hot Mess you can’t IgnoreThe European Union (EU) has new privacy legislation taking effect on January 1. Fines for non-compliance can be up to 2% of revenue. What’s that got to do with North America? If your organization has independent legal entities in Europe, it affects you directly. And North American legislators could adopt EU practices.
Your big data, remarketing, multi-device, multi-channel marketing attribution practices and more could be at risk. What’s your risk management plan if an EU-type cookie/privacy law is passed? If you’ve been shying away from the mess and noise of online privacy, attend this session to get savvy about the core issues. Find out how EU companies are dealing with the new law. Understand the first steps you need to take now so that your data cleanup won’t be a monstrous undertaking and your analytics is less likely to be stopped dead in its tracks if USA and Canada enact similar laws.

niche Market Social outreach and Strategy: how Metrics Make It WorkPrint publishers have learned to either embrace online or suffer and die. However, ‘going online’ itself is not simple salvation. With no shortage of tactics to use, content and social media may be a cost-sink that does not yield results. Using a strategic, results-focused approach, Our Kids Media, well known for their annual Independent School and Camp printed guides, has evolved and thrived over the past 15 years. Their robust website content contains an amazing wealth of resources, actively curated, SEO-optimized and enriched with blogs, social profiles and multi-media. Online metrics aside, here’s proof it’s working - Our Kids is the #1 Trusted Source for parents seeking out information on private education and camp activities in Canada.

The nature of data sets most digital analysts handle will be examined - what flaws are commonly found in data and applications that can generate errors?
