The Metrics of Multi-Channel Messaging: How to Motivate & Measure Success

Technology is driving new consumer choices, behaviors and expectations. Communications are becoming real time, interactive and multi-channel with consumers flipping between devices and channels to suit their needs in the moment. More than ever before, consumers are expecting more of the companies they do business with and exerting greater control over the messages they receive. This is the ‘new norm’ in digital communications that marketers must understand, master and ultimately turn to their advantage. The challenges marketers face are in coordinating their messages, achieving contextual relevancy, and managing the flow of messages across channels to a desired outcome – not easy, but not insurmountable with the right metrics and measures in place.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • What are the prerequisites for conducting, managing and measuring converged communications.
  • Why collaboration across organizational silos is important, and how realigned metrics can achieve it.
  • How to pick the right metrics and measures, and gain internal consensus on their use.
  • Ways to use new metrics to modify old behaviors, and suggestions on which ones to focus on first.
  • Tips for measuring cross-channel contribution and valuing social advocacy.

Marketer's Field Guide to Major ISPs

Your success as an email marketer depends on your ability to maintain a high inbox placement rate (IPR). And IPR, in turn, depends on your ability to understand the major Internet Service Providers (ISPs) – how they filter, what factors affect where you email goes and when to know if you’ve hit trouble. If you’ve ever wished there was a Field Guide to the major ISPs you care about, this session is for you. We’re going to share information about:

  • Spam Filtering: How it works, where it’s applied, what it affects
  • Engagement and Reputation: Who’s using it (and who isn’t) and how you measure it
  • Sending infrastructure including authentication and rate limiting
  • Whitelisting and Feedback loop information: Who offers these services and how to access them

Don't Waste Your Team's Time In Sending Emails That Provide Too Little, Too Late!

Hear how National Instruments built an automated, multi-touch nurturing email stream that incorporates email, web, multi-media, and sales channels to drive sales. Contact is triggered by a recent visit to a select group of web pages and the first goal is to drive the download of a free 30-day software evaluation. During this 30-day period, the prospect is sent multiple emails that are in sync with his expected evaluation experience. These contacts are then called by a technical sales representative. The new program has resulted in increased response rates, decreased time in automating the program, and better qualified leads.

Speakers:

Rosanna Martinez, Manager, Database Management and Communications, National Instruments

The New Inbox: Email + Social + Mobile

This presentation will highlight how email is just as much a part of the “conversation” as Twitter and Facebook, even though it’s changing for many users, and how it should be the backbone to holistic digital messaging campaigns. From a technology perspective, attendees will see how proper content for users on the go can increase relevancy, and how “mobile enabled email” can increase conversions. A look at emerging trends and technologies (tablets, Internet TV, etc.) that will have an impact on email marketers will also be discussed.
