As both the digital landscape and consumer behaviour continue to evolve, we take a look at:

What are the 3 big trends shaping digital marketing in 2013?

1. Smart use of data will drive the success stories of 2013

Smart use of data makes our messages relevant to the consumer, giving cut-through in an increasingly cluttered environment

Page 6: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

1. Smart use of data will drive the success stories of 2013

In this digital age, almost every customer interaction is captured or measurable in some shape or form.

Data allows us to get the right message at the right time.

As companies adopt smarter use of their data, there will be a shift towards more frequent, highly targeted campaigns to smaller segments of customers.

AMAZON.COM SMART USE OF DATA IN ACTION

Page 8: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

AMAZON.COM SMART USE OF DATA IN ACTION

After browsing a specific product category on Amazon.com without making a purchase, a targeted data driven email campaign is initiated.

Page 9: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

AMAZON.COM SMART USE OF DATA IN ACTION

After tracking that the first email had been read, and more products subsequently browsed on the website, the customer receives an upsell competition email.

Automated programmes can leverage customer interaction with components of the programme. i.e. if the customer read the email, and clicked on this offer, then it’s highly likely they will be interested in this email.

Page 10: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

AMAZON.COM SMART USE OF DATA IN ACTION

This is followed by other emails:• Recommending cameras of a

different brand.• A ‘Deal of the day’ relating to the

same product category.

AMAZON.COM SMART USE OF DATA IN ACTION

The remaining components of the programme included: Most popular similar products Holiday specific offers Product cross-sell package offers

While this programme is contact heavy, it is highly targeted and delivered at a time when there is a high likelihood of purchase.

AIR NEW ZEALAND (UK)INCREASED RELEVANCE THROUGH PERSONALISATION

“Personality Allowed” campaign consists of pre-flight and post-arrival emails to passengers containing a information specific to the customers itinerary.

Clever use of data combined with dynamic content creates a personalised experience for the customer.

AIR NEW ZEALAND (UK)INCREASED RELEVANCE THROUGH PERSONALISATION

Contains location specific and relevant content for the customer

Weather information for the destination country dynamically pulled into the email

One of the flight staff team working on the actual flight adds a personal touch to the body of the email

The message is delivered to the customer when interest is at its peak

“Incredibly positive feedback from customers and crew”

1. Smart use of data will drive the success stories of 2013

Across the globe, companies characterize themselves as “data driven”, but most still see big gaps and opportunities in how they utilise data.

Collecting the information is one thing, making effective use of this data is another.

Page 16: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

1. Smart use of data will drive the success stories of 2013

If you don’t know where to start, start small and build your efforts over time.

Consider data you already hold, or can easily collect and store

Start targeting and personalising with a few segments to test and learn.

Another good example of using data to deliver relevance

MICROSOFT XBOX EDM

Microsoft deliver some fun relevant content to members - a customer’s playing history is compared against interesting world-wide usage statistics.

Page 21: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

MICROSOFT XBOX EDM

Data driven content can have its pitfalls.

In this example there is a fairly underwhelming statistic.

Page 22: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

TARGET (USA)THERE IS SUCH A THING AS TOO GOOD

Every time you shop, you share intimate details about your consumption patterns with retailers.

Target has been collecting and analysing this detailed information for decades.

They are just so good at it now that they know whether you have a baby on the way well before you start buying nappies, and a good guess as to what sex too.

Page 23: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

TARGET (USA)HOW THEY DID ITBy researching the purchase habits of customers that had signed up for Target Baby Registers across the country they discovered common purchase patterns at certain stages of pregnancy, e.g:

• A lot of people buy lotion, but they noticed that a lot of woman on the baby register seemed to buy large quantities of unscented lotion around the beginning of their second trimester.

• They also load up on supplements like calcium, magnesium and zinc.

“Take a fictional Target shopper named Jenny Ward, who is 23, lives in Atlanta and in March bought cocoa-butter lotion, a purse large enough to double as a diaper bag, zinc and magnesium supplements and a bright blue rug. There’s, say, an 87 percent chance that she’s pregnant and that her delivery date is sometime in late August.” – Target analyst

Target have since adjusted their marketing offers to include false positives specifically to give customers the illusion that they don’t know exactly what you want.

2. Mobile usage is shaping consumer behaviour change

As the penetration of smartphones continues to grow, consideration of the mobile experience is becoming increasingly important

Page 25: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

2. Mobile usage is shaping consumer behavioural change

• The amount of time spent with mobile is growing at 14 times the rate of desktop. Mobile is picked to exceed desktop usage in the coming years.

• It’s not just the time spent on mobile that is important, it is the growing range of activities that consumers are undertaking that are shaping how consumers interact with brands.

• Consumers aren’t just reading emails on their phones, there is a steady rise in search activity, product research, and mobile commerce.

• There is a steady progression towards the “Constantly Connected Consumer”.

Page 26: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

In 2012, smartphone penetration in New Zealand was already sitting at 44%.

MOBILE OPTIMISATION BECOMES ESSENTIAL

Figures for searching and browsing online are very close behind email in terms of smartphone activities.

29% of NZ smartphone owners had purchased a product/service online.

WITH THE ADOPTION OF SMARTPHONES COMES CHANGES IN CONSUMER EXPECTATIONS

Mobile optimisation is becoming the norm, and as consumers expectations change, the penalty for not optimising increases significantly.

According to a 2013 BlueHornet annual research report, 80% of consumers say they will immediately delete an email if it isn’t mobile optimised. This is a 10% increase on 2012.

Page 32: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

MOBILE OPTIMISATION:HOLDING CONSUMERS HOSTAGE

WHY DID YOU PERSEVERE?

“Because when I use my mobile I really need what I am looking for – not just looking around!”

“Lack of motivation to search for another site, at the risk of getting the same result.”

“Because I wanted to see the sale items. But often won’t click through to sites on mobile because I know the experience isn’t great.”

Page 33: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

MOBILE OPTIMISATION:HOLDING CONSUMERS HOSTAGE

Mobile optimisation is increasingly critical as consumers spend more of their online time on mobiles.

Consumers can easily move on to a site that supports a better user experience.

Currently consumer expectations are low, but this will change quickly.

Page 34: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

3. Content (marketing) is king

Consumers are increasingly shutting off the traditional world of marketing, rendering it less effective.

Enter content marketing.

Page 35: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

3. Content (marketing) is king

“Your customers don’t care about you, your products, your services…they care about themselves, their wants and their needs. Content marketing is about creating interesting information your customers are passionate about so they actually pay attention to you. “

The key trend that is emerging is companies promoting information instead of the company itself.

Page 36: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

3. Content (marketing) is king

The primary goal of these strategies are to drive pre- and post-sales activity.

Google’s ‘Zero Moment of Truth’ research finds that consumers need twice as many sources of information before making a decision than they did just one year ago.

Page 37: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

3. Content (marketing) is king

The traditional web and email channels remain the most prominent in terms of delivery of content marketing activities (83%).

Companies are also starting to branch out to other delivery platforms to increase their reach.

Page 38: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

With the continual rise of content marketing, this leads to an exponential growth in the number of consumer interactions with a brand…Consumers are beginning to expect this type of direct conversation.

Social and other network channels provide the perfect vehicle to amplify both content reach and ROI.

The key challenge is to create authentic content that is going to deliver real value to consumers.

FOOD FOR THOUGHTFood for thought: McDonald’s Canada challenge traditional thinking

The “Our Food, Your Questions” program invites any Canadian to ask any question whatsoever about McDonald’s food.

Historically companies would actively avoid this type of open ended direct contact with customers…BUT…the rules are changing.

To ask a question, participants must connect with either Twitter or Facebook, providing social visibility and a ripple in the pond effect.

Page 40: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Page 41: Digital Marketing Trends, 2013 & Beyond

FOOD FOR THOUGHT“When you say 100% beef, do you mean the whole cow, the organs, snout, brain, kidneys, etc. or just the plain beef we buy at the grocer?”

“Hi Jani. We wouldn’t call it plain beef, but it sure is beef. We only use meat cut from the shoulder, chuck, brisket, rib eye, loin and round. In fact, our beef supplier is Cargill, a name you might recognize. They’re the biggest supplier of beef in Canada.”

“How much Kangaroo meat is in each hamburger?”

“None, Michael. There is absolutely no kangaroo meat in each hamburger. Not at McDonald's Canada. Not even at McDonald's Australia. Their burgers are just upside down. “
