Loyalty rewards Higher frequency More data
Building the modern marketing organization
• “I was told there would be no math”
• Content is essential
• The product team is your sibling; acquisition team your spouse
• Data is your super power
• Be agile and (fail) fast
Engagement Marketing is not just email • Marketing is not just for marketing
anymore
• Once you identify intent, “drive a bus through it”
• Ask your diners how and when they want to hear from you
• What was “creepy” isn’t so creepy anymore
With multi-channel, comes attribution pain • Last click attribution may be
dangerous
• Need the (right) data in one place
• ROI is more philosophy than exact science
• It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t scale
Even “mobile-first” undersells the importance • Google has already tipped
• What is “mobile optimized?”
• Mweb & apps are different animals
• When should you ask for the install?
• Know why consumers use (or don’t use) your app
Reinventing the loyalty program • People will share a lot if you
promise better experiences
• But if you ask, you have to use it
• Personalized experiences > “cash back” for many consumers
• Reward good behavior, not just frequency
Key things to remember
It’s time to rethink the marketing org structure
Engagement opportunity is much more than just
Reward people for giving you data and for good behavior, not just
frequency
