Obama had the most quants on his
staff... and Nate Silver predicted the
result in 49/50 states.
"...they used their databases to tell stories. Or, more to the point, their databases and models were used so that Americans could tell stories to each other."
Felix Salmon http://goo.gl/GxfMp
“Joined-up data that enables you to understand which stories to tell to who, and how and when they should be told. That's the future of marketing, right there.”
Neil Perkin http://goo.gl/B6Mah
An integrated digital marketing
campaign is led by strategy,
underpinned by data.

Visualising advocacy

To make people feel part of a movement,
“I’m part of something big”.
To motivate people to complete an action or pass it on.
Why visualise advocacy?
Highlight areas where advocacy is high/low, which MPs have been targeted - “I can make a difference / I’m needed”
Reflect how local communities feel about issues - “This is relevant to me”
To further motivate people to complete an action or pass it on
Why map advoacy?

“The purpose of an annual report is to inform, inspire and steward stakeholders, but trying something creative on a popular new platform generates additional benefits: Press coverage and buzz for the cause.” - Osocio

Virals
Virals
Don’t believe an agency who promise you a ‘viral’ - too much chance/luck is involved. What goes viral is:
brilliant content,
at the right time,
shared with the right people,
that’s usually funny/cute
and/or amazingly inspiring,
is VERY easy to share,
and its content makes you want to share it.
Influencer engagement
French Red Cross use meme style and ‘cute’ imagery
to promote first aid training course, depite serious nature of topic

Email best practice
flickr.com/photos/epsosimage (cc)
- RWD has one version of the content, which fits to any viewing device (tablets, mobiles)
- Alternative is mobile version of site e.g. m.shelter.org.uk
- Risk to SEO - additional info needed for mobile site
- Don’t build an app unless it’s really needed - long term, repeat value to user, or ongoing entertainment

Our conversation today
Working with agencies
Project objectives should reflect organisational
goals
KPIs should reflect project objectives
Targets should be realistic,
meaningful and measurable
Don’t assume you need to build
something new.Consider the platforms you already have.
Integration: ensure creative, digital,
social, ad agencies work together from the start. Don’t try
and add social afterwards.
Longevity & resource: consider
how long the project could run
for & need supporting
Research: what data do you
already have?
Pilot: test the water before launching big
projects
Low barrier to entry: don’t ask the audience to do too much.
People are lazy. (1:9:90)
70% low risk20% innovation
10% high risk
