- 15 SUBJECT-SPECIFIC IDEAS, on 5 topics (digital trends, mobile, data, analytics & retail), to go more in depth into the conferences
AND WE CAME BACK WITH LOADS OF THOUGHTS TO SHARE WITH YOU,
5 TEACHINGS… that should impact globally & transversally
our vision of digital marketing
#1 « THE EXPERIENCE DEFINES THE BRAND » Brad Rencher, senior vice president & general manager, digital marketing, Adobe
Today, brands are put to the test at every moment. Each touchpoint should be considered as an occasion to make the brand shine and, to satisfy the client, we must imagine an experience:
CONSISTENT & CONTINUOUS PERSONALISED
& CONTEXTUALISED The experience should be adapted according to the context in which is the consumer. Being at home, « on-the-go », at work, etc. impacts the consumers’ mindsets, who expect a different experience to match their state of mind.
The consumer gets the same message & the same quality of experience on every channel
When the consumer switch channel, he is recognized and can go on with what he started elsewhere.
The experience is adapted according to what we know of the consumer. He only gets what he needs/wants/looks for in the brand
#2 « BUILD A UNIFIED VISION OF THE CONSUMER » Brad Rencher, senior vice president & general manager, digital marketing, Adobe
As clients, we are using our different devices simultaneously and together, without discarding one for another. We expect experiences to be available & adapted to whatever device we may use. IT MAKES HAVING A UNIQUE VISION OF THE CONSUMER CRUCIAL!
With the proliferation of channels & the fast development of the connected objects market, brands have more and more opportunities to reach consumers, AND MORE INTIMATELY THAN EVER.
#3 « MARKETING BEYOND MARKETING » Brad Rencher, senior vice president & general manager, marketing digital, Adobe
MARKETING IS EVERYWHERE IT SHOULD BE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WHOLE COMPANY’S EXPERIENCE. IT SHOULD IMPREGNATE EVERY DEPARTMENT OF THE COMPANY. The whole brand and its whole structure should be impacted, because each person & each service of the company is an opportunity to touch the consumer and, thus, to fuel the relation.
#4 « IT’S ABOUT PEOPLE & PROCESS » Brad Rencher, senior vice president & general manager, marketing digital, Adobe
THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IS NOT JUST ABOUT HAVING THE RIGHT DIGITAL PRODUCTS.
IMPLEMENTING THEM PROPERLY IS ABOUT HOW YOU INCLUDE PEOPLE IN YOUR PROJECT & HOW YOU TRANSFORM THE PROCESSES IN THE WHOLE COMPANY TO SPREAD THE USE OF THE PRODUCTS Leading the digital transformation is about rallying people & helping them integrate digital through an intelligent, new organisation
#5 « HUMANITY IS THE KILLER APP » Brian Solis, digital analyst, anthropologist & futurist, Altimeter Group
In an increasingly digital world, the real added-value is in humanity, empathy & what we truly make of technology to appeal to people’s emotions. Consumers are emotionnally-led human beings and they want to be touched, to feel heard and considered, to know that marketers understand them, their practises, their expectations.
Working on our relations with our consumers, we should never forget that we are doing
HUMAN-TO-HUMAN MARKETING
… & 15 IDEAS to go in depth into each of the teachings from the conferences we most enjoyed during the SUMMIT
ABOUT DIGITAL TRENDS #6 « DATA IN MEDIA IS A BREAKTHROUGH FOR THRILLING EXPERIENCES » From « The Data Revolution in Media Consumption », Andi Gall, CTO, Red Bull Media House
Each occasion, each event, each operation is the occasion to tell a story. And today, with technology, we have the opportunity to build stories in a new manner, with more veracity & authenticity.
Big data is not just about business, KPI, analyses, etc. BIG DATA CAN BE ABOUT CREATIVITY & EMOTIONS
Synchronising sensors on people taking part in an activity can enhance its intensity. Integrating & visualizing data in a media content give a new, a more « intense » dimension to each achievement.
ABOUT DIGITAL TRENDS #7 - TECHNOLOGY TO EXPERIENCE STORIES FIRST-HAND From « The connected human », David Shing, Digital Prophet, AOL
Connected wearables give a new opportunity for marketers TO GET CLOSER & CLOSER to their consumers AND TO MAKE THEM REALLY FEEL SOMETHING.
CREATIVITY HAS TO BE REIMAGINED TO INTEGRATE THE NEW CAPABILITIES OF AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGIES
ABOUT MOBILE #8 « MOBILE IS NOT A NICE TO HAVE, IT’S CRITICAL » From the keynote by Jerry Newman, directeur marketing digital & CRM, Chelsea FC
On average, businesses report that
31% OF THEIR TRAFFIC IS VIA MOBILE. And that number is only increasing… Mobile is way to be CONSTANTLY in touch with consumers. Mobile will be the center of all our connected objects. It’s becoming the control room of our digital life.
Mobile is not an OPTION anymore.
Technology should serve an usage. Each got pros and cons, but ultimately IT’S WHAT YOU AIM TO DO WITH IT THAT MATTERS
ABOUT MOBILE #9 « RESPONSIVE, HYBRID OR NATIVE? IT’S NOT SO SIMPLE.» From « Hybrid, native, responsive: myths debunked and best practices shared », Illico Elia, head of mobile, Digitas LBi
Responsive + Easy to implement + X-Device compatibility - No access to most of the phone function - Needs a connection
Hybrid + Easy to adapt to Os + Use of some of phone functions… - …But not all accessible
Native + Full use of phone functions + User experience increased - Develop for each Os - Cost in budget and time
The only doubt you should have is when the equation “time spent vs. functionalities” is close between two methods.
ABOUT DATA #10 « BIG DATA... BUT WHAT DO YOU DO WITH SMALL DATA? » Ricardo Carvalho, Head of Digital, Shell
90% OF DATA EVER CREATED WAS CREATED IN THE LAST 2 YEARS Today, companies can have access to tremendous amounts of data about their consumers. è Personalize the digital experience of the user according to the data you have. START WITH WHAT YOU KNOW FIRST, AND THEN BUILD ON IT WITH NEW SOURCES OF DATA.
ABOUT DATA #11 « SAY WHAT YOU DO, DO WHAT YOU SAY, DON’T SURPRISE THE USER » MeMe Jacobs Rasmussen, Chief Privacy Officer, Adobe
Building trust with your customers, and respecting their privacy is essential if you hope to have access to their data transparently. A relationship with a customer is a 2-way street, if he gives you his data, reward him by CREATING REAL ADDED VALUE to his journey.
IMPROVE / ADAPT / ENHANCE continuously the customer’s experience
to let them know they are being treated as individuals
FOLLOW THE REGULATIONS AND DON’T LIE ABOUT THE USE OF THE USER’S DATA
ABOUT DATA #12 « DATA ON ITS OWN IS PRETTY DRY. HUMANIZE YOUR DATA » From « Data storytelling: Create a happy ending for data-driven decision-making », Brent Dykes, Adobe Evangelist
“When the data is delivered as a story, we’re in a story-listening trance and we’ll overlook nitpicky details in order to go along with the story […] It makes the data more
understandable, more engaging, more memorable, more persuasive and more viral”
HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO DATA?
à Set up: background on the situation à Inciting incident: what’s the opportunity or the problem à Rising: Findings that reveal deep insights à Climax: Aha moment! à Resolution and conclusion: Solution and next steps HOW TO INSERT CHARACTERS IN YOUR STORY ?
à Identify where your analysis intersects with people à Determine which customer traits are important to your message à Search for appropriate character imagery à Create a persona for your hero via the data you have à Build the customer journey with visual elements.
TURNING INSIGHTS INTO ACTIONS
ABOUT DATA #13 - USE SOCIAL DATA TO PREDICT REAL-TIME TRENDS From “Analysing social data to predict real-time trends and transform your business”, Sam Haseltine & James Neagle, Adobe

Build a “product”, measure your customers’ reactions and behaviors on social networks, learn from this, and use what you’ve learned to build something better. Learn and change until you have something that customers love.
Build a piece of content and define what are you trying to test ? Build = Test an idea, have an objective (Startup businesses)
BUILD – Monitor your brand, products, interests
MEASURE - Identify trends from available sources
LEARN - Create predictions from historical buzz for future decisions
Make predictions from social buzz for product success and interest in new trends
Look for trends – what people are talking about your product/idea on social media ? Measure social indicators: FB likes, video views, twitter-followers etc.

ABOUT RETAIL #17 « THE NEW DIGITAL SHOPPERS ARE FORCING RETAILERS TO EVOLVE » From « The stores of the future - leveraging digital in the store and online »
Defining the new digital shopper in 5 « I »:
- « INSTRUMENTED » through mobile devices - « INFORMED » through always-on internet access - « INTERCONNECTED » through social communities - « INPLACE » in store, in public or at home - « IMMEDIATE » in their ability to take action
THEIR PRIMARY EXPECTATION:
PERSONALISATION
ABOUT RETAIL #18 « PERSONALISATION IS NOT ONLY ABOUT THE PRICE » From « The stores of the future - leveraging digital in the store and online »
90% of retailers think of personalisation as
their #1 priority
& 68%
think they’re doing a good
job at it
BUT Only 29% of consumers agree
WHY ? - Because retailers don’t concentrate their efforts in the right place
à 90% of purchases are still made instore but only 1 on 2 retailers try to personalise the experience instore - Because retailers focus personnalisation on transactionnal advantages, when consumers expect much more
- Top 3 consumers’ demands: informations about the products they’re looking for, on their availability & the convenience of the experience according to their needs & practises
PERSONALISATION
ABOUT RETAIL #19 « RETAILERS HAVE ONE BLIND SPOT: « ON-THE-GO » SHOPPERS » From « The stores of the future - leveraging digital in the store and online »
SMARTPHONES’ USAGE:
IN STORE OUT à 31% use it to compare products à 13% look for coupons/discounts à 12% look for infos
à 43% research products on a daily basis
à 58% use it in mobility
A real opportunity, often overlooked
44% of consumers are ok
with receiving location-based informations
BUT ONLY 4% have actually already received some !
IT’S IMPORTANT TO PERSONNALISE ACCORDING TO LOCATION BECAUSE RETAILERS SHOULD ADDRESS PEOPLE IN THEIR DIFFERENT MINDSETS.
ABOUT RETAIL #20 « THE STORE OF THE FUTURE IS HERE, TODAY » From « The stores of the future - leveraging digital in the store and online »
SELF SERVING TECH IS NOT THE MOST INTERESTING …
… EMPLOYEES & SHOPS SHOULD BE EQUIPPED BUT NOT ANYHOW !
People have their own device and continue to go instore mostly to benefit from human guidance.
EMPLOYEES à Equip them so as they can answer consumers’ demands à Equip them with devices that are convenient to use in a
sales context
SHOPS à To offer better guidance for the consumer: beacons to
recognize shoppers, to push contents, to improve the try-on & payment experiences, etc.
à To allow better shop management: identify patterns of frequentation, performances, etc.
ALL THIS IS GREAT BUT IT NECESSITATES A LOT OF CHANGE & IT’S SCARY…
« BE BOLD AND BRAVE » « Take risk & do it ! If you wait for the
competition to do it, you’re already late » 1
« You have to lead the change. It takes risks, vision
& hard work » 3 « You cannot work by copying. If
you want to perform, you shouldn’t just copy, you should break rules » 2
« Instead of asking « why », we ask « why not » & it makes everything possible » 4 « Move quickly, even if it feels
uncomfortable » 5
