Studying online marketing since 1993 and marketing op-timization since 2000, this self-described “professional explainer” rolls out his inaugural Sterne Measures inter-pretation of where the world of marketing is headed. Jim has consistently looked over the horizon and presciently reported back. This time he tackles the data deluge, the privacy predicament, the mobility manifesto and art of analysis.

KeynoteUsing Behavioral Intent to Drive Consumer ExperiencesRoss Jenkins, SVP, Analytics, RAPP Los Angeles

Understanding the intent behind online behavior is the key to pulling value from your online data. And the ulti-mate intent (a purchase, an ad impression, a download) signaled by that click or series of clicks can help you vastly improve your online marketing results. A major pharma company is quantifying, measuring, and using behavior-al intent as the basis for an entirely new way to digitally market their products through advanced segmentation and targeting. Ross returns by popular demand to provide a case study that shows how you can use your web data to uncover and understand intent, identify underperforming segments, and act on behavioral insights that drive both marketing and business results.

10:10-10:30am • Room W194

Managing Forward: Analytics For Today’s Multi- Channel, Multi-Device ConsumerLarry Freed, President & CEO, ForeSee

The rapidly emerging use of mobile phones and tablets has accelerated the multi-channel and multi-device behav-ior of consumers. This has made it now more daunting for organizations to understand and improve the customer experience as a whole by analyzing behavioral data by channel or device. In many cases, the often relied upon “traditional” behavioral metrics have become inconclu-sive and misleading. Learn how to evolve your analytics and measure the customer experience in today’s chang-ing environment. Use the insights and intelligence gained from your analytics to manage your business forward.

Lisa Sheth, Manager - Accenture Interactive, Accenture

As customer needs and behaviors continue to evolve and marketing channels expand and change, it’s critical for marketers to understand the offers, communication and overall experience that motivates a potential custom-er to act.

Configuring the Analytical Mind Moderator: Terry Cohen

Juan Manuel Damia, Co-Founder, SocialMetrix

Analysis requires tools and the most important tool you have is your brain. Training the body requires repetition to build strength but training the mind requires new challenges to increase agility and promote cognitive in-novation. Juan describes the challenges and methods of keeping an open mind. He then turns to the application of that newly trained brain to the task of systemic optimiza-tion. This approach does not focus on the individual steps of customer engagement or on the holistic outcome, but on the interplay between the components. Learn how to optimize the interaction between the campaign, the land-ing page and the conversion mechanism for peak ROCI (Return on Customer Investment).

Social KPIs & the New Age of Data-Driven Community ManagementModerator: Jennifer Veesenmeyer

Marty Weintraub, President, aimClear

Marty illustrates strategies to systematically leverage data, set KPIs and structure day to day sharing & caring activities. Want to more holistically integrate available data to make friends and influence people? Marty dives into the trenches and describes techniques to improve and stream-line the practice of authentic friend-making. How to map search keywords to conversational velocity (per minute/day/month) in Twitter, FB, YouTube and other channels Guerrilla content aggregation techniques to keep com-munity managers supplied with killer sharing material.

For content sites, increasing user engagement is critical to growing audience and maximizing revenue. But engage-ment metrics have been debated for the years. How do you define engagement? How do you measure it? How do you overcome the challenges in communicating engage-ment metrics? Most of all, how do you use engagement metrics to drive business decisions? Amy and Sondra share how PBS and NPR each measure engagement and use that insight to improve user experience, increase content con-sumption, drive overall digital strategies and engage local communities.

KeynoteThrough the Looking GlassElisabeth Fosslien, Associate Analyst, Arc Worldwide

With only a passing acquaintance with Twitter, only knowing Foursquare as a playground game, and assum-ing “CTR” was either a stock ticker or a misspelling of “CPR”, Elizabeth entered the world of online marketing analytics as Alice entered Wonderland. Armed with a BA in Mathematical Economics, an internship at the White House Council of Economic Advisers and two years as a financial analyst Elisabeth fell into the rabbit hole of tags, scripts, data integration and social media. She also found fascinating data streams, statistically significant test sub-jects and a unique challenge helping clients of one of the world’s major agencies (part of the Publicis Groupe) with relationship strategies, campaign strategy and manage-ment, acquisition / retention / loyalty programs, predictive modeling and analytics, multi-channel contact manage-ment, direct response creative, and database strategies/designs and so much more. Elizabeth shares her journey and her view of the digital marketing analytics industry. You’re sure to recognize yourself along the way.

That’s What She Said!Jonathan Levitt, Chief Marketing Officer, opinionlab

In today’s digital age, word of mouth spreads faster than a Facebook like. A single piece of negative feedback can spark a million youtube hits, damaging your brand for-ever. When you open up direct channels with your custom-ers you capture feedback in real-time. When you capture feedback in real-time, you send a message that you care what your customer has to say to you – and you mitigate the risk that said feedback would be screamed from the social mountain top.

Analytics Evolution - Are We There Yet?Moderator: Scot Wheeler

John Lovett, Senior Partner, Web Analytics Demystified

We are growing up and replacing the designation Web Analytics with Digital Analytics. “Web Analytics” is too narrow a term and fails to include how consumers behave

across all channels. It misses what we do as organizations to keep up with the frenetic pace of customer evolution. Analysts weave together data from multiple sources and channels to understand digital consumers and to deliver better experiences. But this evolution is not instantaneous. Are we even there yet? John explores where we’ve been, where we’re headed and - most important - what steps organizations need to follow in order to get there.

Where do you find such people and such projects? The Analysis Exchange - where underfunded non-profits and under-experienced analysts are helped by an experienced mentor who is willing to work for free. Nothing short of brilliant.
