Digital discoverability isn’t just another marketing "to do"… It’s a collective challenge
we must rise up to
Thanos vs Performing Arts Creators
Welcome to the recommendation era
• Search engines have slowly shifted from delivering search results to delivering recommendations right on the results page.
• Intelligent Personal Assistants are designed to deliver only one answer/recommendation at a time.
• In order to make recommendations, search/recommendation technologies need:
Data on the offer
User data Re
commend ation
Can you show me your ID, please?
• Avengers and all other commercial movies have a globally-unique, persistent identifier in one of several open-data knowledge bases: • International Standard Audiovisual Number (ISAN), Entertainment Identifier
Registry (EIDR), Internet Movie Database (IMDb).
• There is no unique persistent identifier for performing arts productions. • And without a unique ID, there is no easy way for search/recommendation
technologies to recognize different presentations of the same production as belonging to a single "tour".
• There is no standardized knowledge base for the performing arts. • And without a standardized, open knowledge base, search/recommendation
technologies have nowhere to look for information about the performing arts.
Recommendation = matching offers with behaviours
Recommendation services take into account:
• Your online behaviour history;
• The online behaviour of other consumers;
• Similarities between you and other consumers (“people who liked this also liked this”)
OFFER
The solution lies in co-opetition Not in competition
Your real competition comes from outside of the performing arts
• A performing arts venue may present up to 8 performances of the same show per week
• A movie theatre screens 50+ films in various genres per week
• Netflix allows you to watch any film you want, whenever you want, and on whatever device you want
Achieving scale through co-opetition
