Senior Digital Marketing Manager
Hello and welcome to the State of Digital Marketing webinar! We’re super excited to have you all here today to discuss this great topic with two truly amazing brands. My name is Robert Manning from Offerpop and I have the pleasure of moderating todays session.
During today’s webinar, we’ll have our two guest speakers from Yes To & Grand Ole Opry discuss how they:
Increased sales through consumer engagement
Gained actionable customer insights through social
And the best practices and lessons they learned from running their own leading digital engagement campaigns
But first…
A few housekeeping items. Our webinar today will be broadcast over both computer audio and the telephone lines you see here. If you are having trouble with either option, please try the alternative, check your volume settings or send us a chat and we’ll do our best to get you up and running as soon as possible.
We also encourage you to participate in the discussion today and send us any questions you have in the chat window. You can also live tweet us using the hashtag #popwebinar on Twitter.
We will also be sharing a recording of today’s session with each of you a bit later in the, so be sure to keep your eye out for that.
For today’s webinar, we are going to do a brief dive into the current state of digital marketing, we’ll dive into a few brand case studies from Yes To & the Grand Ole Opry. Followed by a live Q&A session – so again please be sure to send in any questions you have.
We’re joined by two digital marketing rockstars today:
First up we have Ally Ing, the senior digital marketing manager from Yes To. Ally has been overseeing growth strategies to build online awareness for yes to, and has over 10 years of experience in health and beauty. Additionally we are happy to say Ally has been working with us at Offerpop for the past 4 years with a number of different brands.
We are also joined today by Katrina Maddox, the digital marketing manager from Grand OleOpry. Katrina has been with the Opry for the better part of 10 years and has been focused on finding new ways to increase the brands digital presence by creating innovative engagement campaigns through digital and social.
But before we get into how Ally and Katrina’s teams have been leveraging digital to drive amazing results, let’s take a step back and first look at the current landscape of digital marketing today. According to gartner, more than half of markers budgets have increased by an average of 17 percent. But with this increased budget comes and increased expectation for marketing ROI. So, what are marketers doing with this budget and what have they been focused on in 2015?
In a survey of over 100 marketers, we surfaced the following trends that have been top of mind in 2015:
Firstly, marketers agree it has become critical to collect consumer insights from social data. In fact, 74% of the marketers we surveyed indicated that they are collecting consumer data through social to gain actionable insights into their customers. This insight can influence everything from email, to website, to in-store promotional decisions.
However, even though Marketer’s are making strides in collecting consumer data, they are still struggling to measure the ROI from social. Close to ¾ of marketers surveyed indicated their measurement of social ROI has been ineffective or non existent - with only 29% of marketers indicating their measurements were effective. As social evolves, marketers need better ways to measure their success to justify their social spend.
Unsurprisingly, we discovered that Facebook still reigns king with digital marketing investments even though organic reach has become more problematic for brands. However, even though it still controls the lionshare of the conversation, brands are increasingly supplementing their investment into other smaller networks. In fact, Katrina over at the Opry will have a great example later in the presentation of how her company leveraged different networks to target their most active demographics.
On the mobile front we discovered that brands are still playing catch up in the mobile marketing space, with very few brands indicating they are investing specifically to reach mobile customers. We expect this number to grow substantially in the future as the desktop user pool continues to decline.
And finally, we uncovered that brands are finally realizing the power of integrating email and social data to drive measurable results. Brands can utilizing the data they uncover through social engagement experiences to inform their email retargeting efforts which will drive even more conversions. This alone is a great way to demonstrate the return on your digital marketing.
But that is enough of me talking, let’s get into the fun stuff and hear directly from Ally over at yes to how they leveraged their social and digital campaigns to inform their marketing decisions. Take it away Ally.
That’s fantastic Ally, and I love how you outlined the different tactics you are approaching this year that have a much longer lifecycle. One of the things we try to stress to our clients is that you shouldn’t look at these contests or promotions as one off campaigns, but instead weave them into your overall strategy. This will serve to extend the campaigns lifetime and will also improve your engagement throughout the year. The Evergreen #YesTo campaign you launched is something that can continuously drive engagement all year long. Great work.
Next up we are going to turn it over to Katrina from the Grand Ole Opry to discuss the campaigns they have seen great success with, as well as their future digital marketing plans. Take it away Katrina.
Awesome stuff Katrina, and this coincides beautifully with what we are seeing in the market. More and more brands are using the insight they gain from their social engagement to more intelligently target their users on the networks they are most likely to engage on. This way you can create more specific and targeted campaigns that ultimately resonate better with your audience. Great work!
Before we get into our Q/A session we just wanted to offer up two new resources you may be interested in. the first one is the digital marketing readiness worksheet, which is a great way to assess your current integrated marketing campaigns, and identify areas that you may need to focus on in the future. The second resource is our Master of Digital Marketing eBook which gives awesome real world examples of marketers who have run incredible digital marketing campaigns with great results.
We will post the links to download those resources in the chat window.
Allright, the floor is now open for q/a. Please feel free to jot down any questions you have in the chat window, or live tweet us on twitter using the hashtag #Popwebinar
First up we have….
Thank you all for your interest in this topic, and a big thanks to Ally and Katrina for their great insight today. Be on the lookout later this afternoon for the recording of today’s session.
With that, thanks again everyone for joining us, and enjoy the rest of your day!
