we’re all divas now: how to reach high-maintenance consumers with your brand story at sic2013
DESCRIPTION
We’re All Divas Now — How to Reach High-Maintenance Consumers with Your Brand Story Consumers have taken over, and they’re driving conversations that brands once owned. They’re doing this across channels, applications, and devices. For brands and interactive marketers, this makes defining and delivering a consistent journey and value-centric story for consumers exponentially more difficult. From social editorial content planning to mobile application messaging and email communications, brands and agencies have their work cut out for them. Additionally, consumers – and their shortened attention span – have a ridiculously high bar for brand impressions. Transparency and relevancy are no longer enough. They demand value. They thrive on having and knowing things early. They socialize through sharing.

Do I need to invest in mobile apps? What about mobile and tablet display?
Should I buy third party data? If so, what data matters to our business? How can I set up a testing matrix?
How do I manage our social outreach authentically and at scale? What is my POE media budget mix?
