Escape Information Poverty By Asking The Right Questions – The Measurement Standard

Escape Information Poverty By Asking The Right Questions – The Measurement Standard: Blog Edition.

Too many times I’ve heard marketers complain that “I’m data rich but information poor!”  They’ve got transaction data, clickstream data, survey data, demographic data… you name it.  There’s no doubt they have many data points for each of their customers.

Despite these troves of data, the most common direct marketing campaigns are what we call “spray and pray,” a ‘one size fits all’ approach where all recipients get the same message. This approach ignores the wealth of available data.

Storytelling: The Lynchpin for New & Traditional Media.

Storytelling and blogging have a symbiotic relationship. Both Facebook (http://www.facebookstories.com/) and Twitter (http://blog.twitter.com/2011/11/introducing-twitter-stories.html) have whole sites dedicated to their users’ stories to demonstrate their offline impact. All three companies have a lot of time and resources invested in creating a robust and engaging company blog. Dametra keeps things fresh by getting a variety of contributors creating posts, which then begged the question: how do you get them to write it?!  The consensus of the panel, and I suspect the audience, was that is the biggest challenge to the company blog.
