The Power Has Shifted

• We made our bed

• Consumer defenses are up

• Trust of “the man” is down

• Peers are always right…sometimes

Brands that view this phenomenon as an

opportunity and proactively manage it will win

The Art of Engagement

“Engagement occurs when a consumer interacts with

a brand, and elects to invest in it physically, financially

or emotionally.”

• Most valued currency of the web

• Requires the ability to listen and communicate

• Tipping point: gaining the consumer‟s attention and trust

10

The Opportunity

• When you have someone on your website, they have

given their full consent for you to communicate with them

or to market to them

• It‟s your chance to engage, to persuade or to educate

• That chance might be brief - as the cursor hovers over the

back button

• How can you make the most out of this opportunity?

Three Kings of Engagement

Content, provided in context, based on

numerous conversations

Context

• Target messages

• „Be where they are‟

• Individualization ≠

personalization

• Conversations are

everywhere

• The Web = social

• Consumers expect

interaction

• Perception is brand

• Web adoption gives

brands power

• Content = fulfillment

• Individualization

necessitates more

content!

• Organization is key
