Not about big data; it’s about smartly using the data you have – and you have enough to get started
IGNORE THAT GRAPHIC!
Ensure marketing metrics like engagement and email opens have a direct relationship to your business metrics
TIE BUSINESS METRICS TO MARKETING METRICS
What do people have in common? What behaviors are consistent? How does that info help you market smarter?
IDENTIFY TRENDS AND CORRELATIONS
AnalyzeData-Driven Insights
Data comes in various formats – member databases, social media data, web analytics, purchase data, etc.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR DATA SOURCES
What sources of data do you have access to that might inform how you communicate with your members?
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR MEMBERS?

What’s the vision for how your brand conveys its message and who it conveys it to?
WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY AND HOW
Good stories compel people to change the way they feel, the way they think, the way they act and the way they behave.
BE MINDFUL OF THE IMPACT OF GOOD STORYTELLING
Engagement differs across the lifecycle. Adapt your voice, content and channels to what works best for each
TAILOR APPROACH TO CUSTOMER LIFE CYCLE

Different Ys can have members with differing needs. How does your Y address your specific member groups?
