“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half”
This quote by U.S. retail magnate John Wanamaker in the 19th century captured the angst of businesses. They believed that marketing and advertising worked but were uncertain of how and to what extent!
Almost a century later, businesses face the predicament of ascertaining the effectiveness of their marketing spends. Traditional brand-building activities’ outcomes like ‘awareness’, ‘Brand advocacy’ have no credible predictive linkage or retrospective connection to the brand’s financial performance. Assessing the impact of the marketing spends on the brand’s financial performance is a daunting task for even the most seasoned CMOs and CEOs.
In the face of the uncertain macro-economic environment we are currently witnessing, marketing budgets are the first to be axed. This number is pegged anywhere between 30-50% reduction in spends (Times of India). Hence it is imperative that businesses make every penny spent on marketing work harder and effectively contribute to the financial performance of the brand. Further, customers today do not follow a linear journey, evaluating and reevaluating their choices based on real time information. This, in turn, is making it increasingly difficult for organisations to understand exactly what customers want, and exactly how businesses can give them what they need. The solution is for businesses to place greater focus on learning more about their audience through consumer insight.
This workshop aims to enable brands to develop strategies based on key marketing performance metrics, customer insights, and analytics that maximizes the effectiveness of marketing spends and amplifies the brand narrative and its values.
This is a learning and experiencing workshop that has at the same time a hands-on approach. The participants will be involved in in-depth discussions, case analysis, and working on machine learning software and simulations. They will be involved in hands-on exercises for creating effective performance marketing strategies for their brands based on real-life marketing issues.
Participants will work hands on using RapidMiner – Machine Learning platform and Social Media Listening tool
