A study from Les Binet and Peter Field found that for every 10-point increase in excess share of voice, brands see around a 0.5% annual market share growth on average. But does this marketing principle still hold true in today's fragmented media landscape?This week, Elena, Angela, and Rob are joined by VP of Strategy Dan Cleveland to explore excess share of voice (ESOV) and its enduring relevance. They dive into how ESOV correlates with growth, why it's still a valuable planning tool, and what happens when brands let their share of voice slip below market share. Plus, discover why TV remains crucial for building the top-of-funnel awareness that drives long-term brand performance.Topics covered: [01:00] The history of share of voice and why it matters[03:30] How excess share of voice links to market share growth[08:00] When ESOV doesn't work (and what that reveals)[12:30] Using share of search as a real-time metric[16:00] Why top-of-funnel channels drive brand awareness[21:00] The risks of underspending compared to your share of market[27:00] Practical steps to apply ESOV to your strategy  To learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter. Resources:  2023 IPA Article: https://ipa.co.uk/knowledge/ipa-blog/esov-an-excessive-focus-on-the-wrong-thing/?utm_source=chatgpt.com Get more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Épisode 1253 : Le branding, ce vieux débat. On nous le vend comme le pilier d'une entreprise, la clé d'une croissance durable… et pourtant, de plus en plus de marques semblent délaisser leur investissement en image pour tout miser sur la performance immédiate. Est-ce encore rentable d'investir dans le branding aujourd'hui ? C'est la question qu'on se pose dans cet épisode.Branding vs Performance : un équilibre perdu en 2025 ?Il y a quelques années, la répartition idéale des budgets était claire :Pour une marque en lancement : 2/3 du budget en acquisition, 1/3 en notoriété.Pour une marque mature : l'inverse !Cette règle elle s'inspire des travaux de Les Binet et Peter Field. Deux experts en efficacité publicitaire, qui ont démontré que les entreprises les plus performantes ont une approche stratégique de leur marketing mix. Un équilibre qui dépend de votre marque.Le branding est un investissement à intérêts composésLe branding, c'est comme les intérêts composés en finance.Plus tu investis régulièrement, plus la valeur s'accroît avec le temps. Comment marche le principe des intérêts composés ? Imagine ceci : Tu mets 10 euros dans une tirelire magique. Chaque année, cette tirelire te donne 10% d'intérêts. Ça veut dire qu'au bout d'un an, tu gagnes 1 euro (10% de 10 euros), et maintenant tu as 11 euros.Mais l'année suivante, la tirelire ne calcule pas les 10% seulement sur les 10 euros de départ, elle les calcule sur tout l'argent que tu as maintenant, soit 11 euros. Du coup, tu gagnes 1,10 euro (au lieu de juste 1 euro). Et l'année d'après, encore plus… Et ainsi de suite !—Le branding, c'est comme les intérêts composés en finance.Plus tu investis régulièrement, plus la valeur s'accroît avec le temps. -Pourquoi les entreprises tombent dans le piège du marketing court-termistePourquoi tant de marques tombent dans le piège de la performance pure ? Trois raisons principales :Le manque de visibilité du branding : difficile de prouver son impact immédiat avec des chiffres concrets.Des Directeurs Marketing de plus en plus instables : en moyenne, un Directeur Marketing reste max 2 à 3 ans en poste. Trop court pour mener une vraie stratégie de marque.La pression des résultats trimestriels : les entreprises veulent du résultat rapide, ce qui pousse à privilégier les campagnes de conversion.—Conclusion : faut-il encore investir dans le branding ?Investir dans le branding, c'est un peu comme semer une graine :À court terme, tu dépenses sans forcément voir d'effet immédiat.À long terme, ta marque pousse seule, et tes coûts marketing baissent naturellement.Retrouvez toutes les notes de l'épisode sur www.lesuperdaily.com ! . . .

In diesem Gespräch geht es um die Herausforderungen und Strategien im Marketing, insbesondere in Bezug auf Attribution, Branding und die Bedeutung von Personalisierung. Björn & Philipp diskutieren die Rolle von Sichtbarkeit und Branding im Marketing-Mix und hebt die Wichtigkeit kultureller Unterschiede bei der Ansprache von Kunden hervor. Zudem wird die Messbarkeit von SEO im Vergleich zu anderen Marketingkanälen thematisiert. In dieser Diskussion wird die Bedeutung der Kundenzentrierung im Marketing hervorgehoben, wobei betont wird, dass Marketing mehr ist als nur Werbung. Es wird diskutiert, wie Unternehmen Daten nutzen können, um personalisierte Marketingstrategien zu entwickeln und wie wichtig es ist, verschiedene Kanäle effektiv zu integrieren, um eine konsistente Markenbotschaft zu kommunizieren. Praktische Beispiele und Strategien zur Nutzung von Datenanalysen werden ebenfalls vorgestellt. Takeaways Verantwortung ist ein zentraler Wert in Nadines Leben. Die Effektivität von Marketing hängt von vielen Faktoren ab. Kanal und Recency sind nur 30 % der Werbewirkung. Share of Search ist ein wichtiger Indikator für Umsatz. Marke steht für ein Wertebündel beim Konsumenten. Kundensegmentierung ist entscheidend für die Ansprache. Cultural Management ist wichtig für den Erfolg. SEO ist schwieriger messbar als Performance-Kampagnen. Search-Daten zeigen frühzeitig Konsumtrends. Die Botschaften im Marketing sind nicht neu, nur die Kanäle. Marketing ist Kundenzentrierung, nicht nur Werbung. Die Botschaft ist entscheidend für den Erfolg. Datenanalyse ist entscheidend für personalisierte Marketingstrategien. Kampagnen sollten über verschiedene Kanäle konsistent sein. Verstehen, was der Konsument wirklich will, ist entscheidend. CTR-Optimierung allein führt nicht zu mehr Verkäufen. Daten können helfen, Produktionszyklen zu optimieren. Markenbotschaften sollten an den Kanal angepasst werden. Die Integration von Datenanalysen in die Entscheidungsfindung ist wichtig. Kundeneinblicke sind der Schlüssel zu erfolgreichem Marketing.

In this episode we talk with Les Binet, co-author of The Long and the Short of it about his research into effective advertising. We discuss some of his best-known findings, such as the value of emotional campaigns. But we also cover some lesser-known areas such as whether wear out is a myth, why music in ads should get more attention and finally what he calls the “dark matter of effectiveness”: price effects.

The effectiveness “revolution” is colliding with the AI-spawned efficiency uprising and it's leaping the early consensus AI use cases in marketing around automating personalised content and communications. So much so Mark Ritson choked on his Wellfleet oysters when Jon Lombardo and Peter Weinberg told him they were leaving top jobs at the LinkedIn-backed thinktank, the B2B Institute. Then they told him why. Ritson promptly joined their venture, along with what Weinberg calls “the advisory board to end all advisory boards”.  Thus the synthetically-enhanced AI marketing outfit Evidenza was born. The founders argue their new piece of “synthetic customer” tech, which starts with creating AI copies of target customers, can create an annual marketing strategy, category entry points, messaging and positioning at a fraction of the cost of traditional market research and in a fraction of the time it takes for a marketing team to do the same. They claim it completes major research projects in minutes – and have proven their digitally synthetic customers match real customer responses it took some of the world's biggest brands long cycles to gather. “It can imitate essentially anyone by gathering and synthesizing massive amounts of data,” per Weinberg, including almost impossible-to-reach professionals, like airline chiefs, or the bosses of mining companies. Which is exactly what Evidenza did in a head-to-head test with EY Americas CMO Toni Clayton-Hine's actual survey data – and “reached 95 per cent of the same conclusions,” per Weinberg. EY “has been a fantastic client ever since.” But as well as synthesizing customers, the system also synthesizes marketing strategy and science: Imagine on one side a synthetic combination of Mark Ritson, Professor Byron Sharp teamed with ad effectiveness maestros Peter Field and Les Binet. Then on the other side, hundreds of synthetic CEOs, CFOs, CTOs, CIOs, CMOs and each of those functions linked to the nuances of different industries and categories. Put them all into an AI blender, and you get what Lombardo and Weinberg think is an efficiency revolution in marketing fused with the effectiveness revolution from the marketing academics. The upshot for marketers? “A finance-friendly marketing plan that used to take months now takes maybe minutes, but more likely, a day,” per Weinberg. According to Lombardo that's good news even for traditional market researchers. “Everyone is going to get better. Average is over.” So what's left for the humans? The synthetic duo say the smart stuff - experience, strategic frameworks and brand and category nuance, for instance - that makes the machines do better. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Camilla Pang si sente un alieno atterrato per sbaglio sulla Terra. La sindrome di Asperger unita ad altri due disturbi, ADHD e DAG, le rendono la vita quasi impossibile. Tuttavia ha una straordinaria mente scientifica che le permette di ottenere un dottorato in biochimica e infine di farsi un'idea su come funzionano gli esseri umani. Le sue conclusioni sono di grande aiuto per farci un'idea di come possiamo capire le persone (e fare branding) attraverso i dati. Ospite della puntata: Catarina Sismeiro, Managing Director di Annalect, la divisione di Omnicom Media Group che si occupa dell'analisi avanzata dei dati, e professoressa associata alla Business School dell'Imperial College di Londra.

Cummins&Partners CEO Michael McConville returned home to Australia last year after five years at the helm of adam&eveDDB, home of effectiveness guru Les Binet – and where he was steeped in econometric modelling with the likes of John Lewis and Volkswagen. One marketer within the Volkswagen Audi Group, Benjamin Braun, nailed econometrics to the point that he could “forecast within 32 units [i.e. cars] what their campaign spend was going to get them in terms of sales”, per McConville. He's aiming to go one better, probably with clients like Jeep and McCain although he won't say just yet, after inking an exclusive creative agency deal with Mutinex for econometric modelling in real time. “We'll be looking to beat Audi,” says McConville. “This is a step ahead of what I'd been using in the past by a long way … This is the beginning of an industry repositioning. This is a form of applied marketing science … and agencies won't have excuses anymore to not put this sort of thing forward to clients.” Plus, he's using it to change Cummins&Partners fee structures: less upfront, more of the client business upside later. “Creativity won't be talked about as a big bet anymore,” reckons McConville. “It's a sure thing.” And that, he says, will make marketing a growth centre once again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When I was growing up, I could never change the opinion of my mother by saying, “But everyone else is doing it.”My mom had the courage and confidence to believe that Everyone Else's mother was wrong.That's a high level of courage and confidence. I'm hoping that you have it, too.When I speak to advertising professionals on the subject of advertising, I often find myself having to explain how certain widely-held beliefs are wrong. I will patiently produce the evidence, the case studies, and scientific documentation. In most instances, the audience will concede that I am right. Then someone will say, “But everyone else is doing it,” as though it is impossible for “everyone else” to be wrong.Here's an example: most people believe in tightly targeting the right customer. They are convinced that the secret of successful advertising is to “reach the right people.”I believe targeting is essential if you are in a business that sells to other businesses.If you sell computer chips, you need to reach computer manufacturers, so send a letter, an email, a salesman to knock on their door. If you sell cardboard boxes by the traincar load, you need to reach companies that sell things packaged in cardboard boxes. Send a letter, an email, a salesman to knock on their door. The world of B2B lives and dies with their ability to “reach the right people.”But when you are selling a product or service to the public, “targeting the right customer” works only about 10% better than reaching the untargeted masses.If the cost of targeting is less than 10% higher than the cost of not targeting, go ahead and target. But I am confident you will find that targeting usually costs considerably more than that.“But everyone else is doing it.”Please excuse me while I bang my head against the wall.Nielsen is the highly scientific organization that measures television and radio audiences.D2D is cloud based, and leverages open source technology designed to collect, manage, and analyze complex data.Les Binet is a highly respected data scientist.In the summer of 2020, Les Binet published a huge, longterm study on the effectiveness of marketing. Here is one of the many things he learned:“In many ways, online marketing and online media has done itself a disservice by focusing on targeting more than reach. A couple of very interesting studies are out there. One was a study by Nielsen, about the relative contributions of reach versus targeting in effectiveness, and they concluded, with a survey of about 500 econometric models, that targeting only adds about 10% to the effectiveness of the campaign on average. A very similar result came from some work by D2D, where they looked at over 200 econometric models, from a wide range of categories, and they concluded that targeting of a campaign adds only about 10% to effectiveness. So the same numbers, two very different methods.”Have you been following the news about Phenylephrine, the decongestant that was proven to be ineffective in 2007 and in multiple studies since then, but is still on the shelf 16 years later?According to a recent news story by Sarah Zhang,“Americans collectively shell out $1.763 billion a year for cold and allergy meds with phenylephrine, according to the FDA, which also calls the number a likely underestimate. That's a lot of money for a decongestant that does not work.”Generally speaking, I'm in favor of government staying out of the way of business, but this seems to be a case where the Federal Trade Commission might ought to step in

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The cost of (not) taking marketing seriously, published by James Odene [User-Friendly] on August 11, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. TLDR: EA organisations are forfeiting impact if they don't take marketing seriously. User-friendly are offering a free and friendly 'sense-check' consultancy call to all EA-aligned organisations. Email Letstalk@userfriendly.org.uk to enquire. Introduction By not properly addressing the role of marketing in the effective altruism movement, there is substantial impact being forfeited; potentially ~20% impact loss, though in some cases, likely even more. Our efforts, no matter how rational or impact-seeking, can only create the desired change if they are effectively communicated and disseminated to our intended audience. Marketing provides us with the tools to bridge the gap between intention and action, between knowledge and support, and between ideas and real-world impact. If we continue to communicate without adequate marketing consideration, we are consistently short-changing our impact. The effective altruist approach is highly analytical. Due to this, we often assume that our intended audience won't be impacted by marketing, however, everyone is (yes, even you are) impacted by aesthetic, by language choice, by an interface and experience quality. You may not think of your organisation as a 'brand' with a 'customer-base' trying to 'sell', but you are still beholden to all the same rules that consumer facing brands are as these are derived from human-nature and our shared (biassed) psychology. Below I will highlight some key research and how EA organisations can take advantage of the findings. 5 key pieces of research on why marketing matters; "The Long and Short of It" by Les Binet and Peter Field: This influential research study analysed over 1,400 advertising campaigns and demonstrated the importance of long-term brand building and balancing it with short-term activation. The findings indicate that organisations that invest in long-term brand building experience significant increases in brand-related key performance indicators, market share growth, and profitability. How can EA organisations benefit from this: Firstly, it's important to note that most organisations don't have a marketing budget - so this is step one. What this should be will vary for each organisation, but I would expect a rough gauge of 10-30% of your annual budget to be on marketing. For companies that allocate 60% or more of their marketing budget to long-term brand building activities achieve a 140% increase in brand-related metrics. Additionally, organisations that strike the right balance between long-term and short-term campaigns experience 2.5x higher market share growth and 3x higher profitability growth compared to those with an unbalanced approach. For EA organisations, this could translate into higher donation volumes, fellowship applications or related organisational objectives. Even less directly public-facing organisations will rely on long-term brand building as without being known or being salient, the organisation objectives will suffer no matter how effective your core work is. "How Brands Grow" by Byron Sharp and the Ehrenberg Bass Institute: Sharp's research challenges traditional marketing assumptions and provides evidence-based insights into brand growth and audience behaviour. The study emphasises the significance of reaching a broad audience and creating strong mental availability through consistent and distinctive branding. The research findings indicate that organisations focusing on broadening their audience base can achieve a 60% to 80% increase in brand penetration and a 25% to 50% increase in market share. Moreover, improving mental availability through consistent and distinctive branding contributes to a 10% to 25% increase in m...

Following on from the IPA EffWorks and WARC session on the Terrace Stage in Cannes, I speak to effectiveness legends, Les Binet, Grace Kite and Tom roach to outline the big shifts in advertising effectiveness in the digital era, suggesting that we're leaving the trough of disillusionment and moving onto the plateau of productivity.Register for the IPA webinar: https://ipa.co.uk/events-listing/the-3rd-age-of-effectiveness Digital once promised so much in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, tracking, and accountability. But the reality didn't live up to the hype. And now we're entering a new era - one where the best understanding about things have always worked are being blended with new ways of doing things, and the evidence suggests things are beginning to work better as a result.  They challenge the narrative that creativity is declining and digital is the culprit. On the contrary, analysis of the ARC database shows effectiveness is improving in some places, (less so in others). It will also shine a light on brand-building in the platform world, specifically, creativity within the platforms. Tom talks about how clients, agencies and creators are getting to grips with the new environment, showcasing examples of effective creativity from around the world.

And for most of us, that's the biggest problem is people have no idea who we are at all, so they subsequently don't care and don't investigate and so forth.” -Brenden Dell [03:56] “Being deliberate about what you want people to know just makes sales easier.” -Brenden Dell [20:47] “Sales is transferring trust. Messaging is transferring trust.” -Brenden Dell [26:59] “At the end of the day, everything basically is sales and communication. And that's whether you're trying to win an election or you're trying to sell a product or you're trying to convince your spouse on where to go to dinner, how you say things really affects the success of what you're doing.” -Brenden Dell [31:08] TIMESTAMPS [00:01] Intro [00:33] This week's guest: Brenden Dell [01:26] Core starting places for positioning and messaging [06:19] Pre-product market fit vs post-product market fit [07:29] Thinking through a differentiator [10:41] Asking customers for feedback [13:19] New concepts and paradigm [20:07] The elements of fame [29:00] Anchoring bias [30:33] About Brenden's book [41:55] How to contact Brenden RESOURCES Gong 5 Principles Of Growth In B2B Marketing by Les Binet and Peter Field SiriusDecisions, acquired by Forrester Getting Back to the Basics (Three types of demands) The $1B Pitch Drift Lavender Enterprise Sales Development with Will Allred Enterprise Sales Development with Josh Braun Predictably Irrational, Revised and Expanded Edition: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions by Dan Ariely Seth Godin CONNECT Brenden Dell's website Brenden Dell on LinkedIn Brenden Dell on Twitter Brenden Dell on Instagram Billion Dollar Tech podcast CIENCE website CIENCE on LinkedIn CIENCE on Facebook CIENCE on Twitter CIENCE on Instagram

NRMA Insurance was “tanking” before IAG CMO Brent Smart returned from New York and appointed Accenture's The Monkeys, without a pitch, in an early Australian textbook execution of Les Binet and Peter Field's work around the business impact of investing long-term in brand. Smart went further but was unwavering from the get-go – as were The Monkeys - about returning to “HELP" in late 2017, according to a redacted entry submission to the Effies seen by Mi3. A series of brand-led campaigns, spearheaded by The Monkeys, took out the Advertising Council's Grand Effie Award last month for returning the ailing insurance company to category-leading growth. But just how bad were things at NRMA Insurance, and how and why did they return to a 20-year-old idea?

In this episode, Sheila shares what she has learnt over the years as well as her frustration over the direction that the advertising sector has taken - frustration which ultimately led her to write a book called ‘In with the old. In with the new'. She talks about how promises to change the interruption model were not kept, how time pressure impacts ads' effectiveness, and how digital advertising could benefit from learnings from the past. Most importantly, she highlights the significance of human intervention and common sense in technological and data developments as well as their applications.  Enjoy!  *****************************   Show notes:   *****************************  Sheila's book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/old-new-Sheila-Byfield/dp/0244501955/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=sheila+byfield&qid=1634586146&sr=8-1  Reading recommendations: The Attention Economy by Karen Nelson-Field  The long and the short of it: Balancing long and short-term marketing strategies by Les Binet and Peter Field.  Hello world by Hanah Fry  Invisible women by Caroline Criado-Perez  Podcasts recommendations The digital human: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01n7094/episodes/player  Marketing Week's podcast: https://www.marketingweek.com/marketing-podcasts/ 

Peter Field has spent 15 years as a strategic planner in advertising and has been a marketing consultant for the last 20 years. His pioneering work on the link between creativity and effectiveness – such as Media in Focus with Les Binet - has earned Peter a global reputation as one of the Godfathers of Effectiveness. What we covered in this episode: How he become ‘Godfather of effectiveness' Getting fired from two agencies  The evidence based approach to marketing Creating the IPA database  Origin of The Long and Short of It  The curse of short term thinking  Why brands take time to build  The power of emotion to create connections  The window in which you measure effectiveness is vital  Long term is broad reach emotional creative  Why the 60/40 ratio works  Why brand building matters even more for DTC The conflation of physical and mental availability on line  The myth of digital replacing brand  Convincing the CFO of the role of brand building  Why investors really get it  Why the ESOV model matters and what it tells us  The impact of brand size on ESOV The challenge facing new entrants and why challenger brand thinking matters  How economies of scale benefit market leaders  The amplification power of creativity  The tidal wave of disposable creativity  How award judges are celebrating short term activation  Even effectiveness awards lack long term results  The dangers of going dark in a recession  Why we should be more P&G than Coke Why it's time to celebrate consistency  The power of strong fluent devices What happens when brands stop advertising The one thing we should be talking about which we aren't  The breakdown in the correlation between media spend and share of voice  Why we should be measuring share of attention rather than share of voice   It's time to start paying for attention Peter FieldThe Long and the Short of It

A branded keyword is one in which the name of your company appears. When a customer types the name of your company into a search string, they are looking for you, they believe in you. A friend might have recommended you, but usually it was your advertising that won them over. Either way, you have done well. Unbranded keywords include phrases like “air conditioning repair” and “diamond engagement rings.” When a shopper types an unbranded keyword into a search engine, it is a clear signal that they have no preferred provider in your category. No one has won them over. The best online marketers track their branded and unbranded keywords separately because they know that when you follow unbranded keywords all the way from the search string to the gross profit made on those sales, you will often find you spent more money on unbranded keywords than you made on the sales they brought in. That's when you should drop them like a hot rock. Look at the case study at the top of this page. I have removed the name of the company, the category, and the cities, but the data is real, it is recent, and it is accurate. We spent $37,398 in unbranded keywords in City 1 so that we might have the privilege of losing $8,299. We spent $30,008 in unbranded keywords in City 2 so that we might have the privilege of losing $17,238. We spent $6,273 in unbranded keywords in City 3 so that we might have the privilege of losing $6,409. After losing $31,946 we grew tired of feeling privileged. Meanwhile, in City 1 our investment of just $7,452 in branded keywords made us a gross profit of $49,480 after deducting the cost of our branded keywords. In City 2 our investment of just $14,648 in branded keywords made us a gross profit of $62,976. In City 3 our investment of just $2,998 in branded keywords made us a gross profit of $9,042. But all the young digital weasels tell me I'm not looking at it correctly. They scold me for tracking branded and unbranded keywords separately, and smugly point out, “When you combine them into one big package, the return on investment is perfectly acceptable.” Some of my closest friends are world-famous online marketing experts who know how to create campaigns that allow you to monetize all the customer enthusiasm that has been generated through your radio and TV and outdoor advertising. None of my friends is young enough or smug enough to be a digital weasel. Digital weasels always fail to deliver what they proudly promised. Back when I was a 14-year-old boy on the wrong side of a little Oklahoma town, I would have pulled these weasels aside, put my arm around their shoulders and whispered in their ears, “Be careful not to let your alligator mouth overload your mockingbird butt.” But I have mellowed and matured. Or at least I pretend I have. Les Binet and Peter Field did what data scientists do; they monitored the advertising of more than 1,000 businesses for more than 15 years, then published the data.Binet and Field are not digital weasels. I smile every time I listen to them. A Les Binet says, “If you build your business, or try to build your business, using short-term efficiency measures – cost per response, click-through rates, that kind of thing – you're on a hiding to nothing. You're going to run your business into the ground, we believe, because those are not the things that grow the business, long-term.” Les Binet goes on to say, “You need to talk to people, not just who are in the market right now, but people who might come to market over the next two to three years. You need to engage them with things that are more humanly relevant, more general, more universal, and crucially, you need to engage them at the emotional level… So if you want really disproportionately large marketing effects, if you want big sales and big profits, aim for fame.” Is it fame you want? I can give it to you with 3 simple bits of advice:Make your radio and TV ads unpredictable and entertaining....

What we covered in this episode: What is Econometrics and why you do it? The critical role of people in any econometric project Cristiano, Coke and the complete misattribution of data Importance of senior buy-in to an Econometrics project Making econometrics like art on a Friday not maths on a Monday Marketing as an investment not a cost How the data captures the behaviour of people What Grace learnt when rebranding her business Why Grace has been turning business down How Jon created the Uncensored CMO brand in 45mins Why every tech company has a blue logo Traditional vs Modern marketing and who is right Is creative effectiveness really in decline? How life stage influences media choice more than anything The Wrong and the Right of it and what the data really says Why ‘it depends' is usually the right answer The importance of evidence over opinion on social media Does paid search actually lead to sales? The role of search as a window into consumer demand Does Share of Search actually predict demand for your brand The one thing Marketers are not talking about but should be About Dr Grace KiteWith more than 20 years' experience, Dr Grace Kite is a business economist who's worked on more than 120 econometrics projects across all the main advertising buying categories.

Wie funktioniert erfolgreiches Measurement aus Sicht einer Mediaagentur? Dieser vermeintlich einfachen Fragestellung widmen sich die beiden Facebooker Sven (Marketing Science Partner) und Stella (Agency Partner) gemeinsam mit Tobias Schwarz (Director Brand Analytics bei Crossmedia) in der 23. Folge der Facebook Marketing Experten. Die drei zeigen auf, warum KPIs, wie z. B. Reichweite und Impressionen zwar wichtige Wirkungsindikatoren sind, aber noch nicht mit Kampagnenerfolg gleichzusetzen sind. Sie analysieren die Unterschiede in puncto Werbewirkung bei Performance und bei Branding-Kampagnen. Auch differenzieren sie zwischen kurzfristiger Erfolgsmessung und Studien zur Langzeitwerbewirkung (Longterm Brand Equity). Stella zitiert dabei u. a. auch Les Binet und seine Thesen zur “Wirksamkeit im Kontext”. Tobias schildert immer wieder beispielhaft aus Forscherperspektive, während Stella die größten Herausforderungen für Werbetreibende und Agenturen analysiert. Dabei thematisieren sie Brand Lift, Multi-Cell Brand Lift und Marketing Mix Modelling. Abschließend betont Tobias noch, dass es im Bereich der Werbewirkungsforschung nicht DIE eine Wahrheit bzw. das eine Tool gibt, das auf alle Fragen eine Antwort hat und Measurement auch permanentes Lernen bedeutet.

If you're great at sales and generating leads that way the...what does brand marketing do and is it something you need to be thinking about?The shorter answer is yes...the long answer is this podcast episode ;)We've all heard the analogy sales people use about the importance of building a relationship that goes something like this."You don't walk up to a stranger and ask them to sleep with you"But today I want to take that analogy further and extend it to brand building.I see so many entrepreneurs and small businesses so heavily focused on optimising their sales activities that they miss out on the activity that will not only enhance their sales but will ultimately become the primary driver of growth.We're going to get super nerdy in this episode, so buckle up for some maths and science as we explore the value of brand building together!Follow along with the screen shares on this podcast episode:Visit my new home page here: https://www.laurenkress.comAnd to nerd out on the Media In Focus White paper by Les Binet and Peter Field head to: https://www.effworks.co.uk/download-media-in-focus/Thanks to our regular listeners who support the show on ko-fi - you can become a supporter show for the small fee of a price of coffee once a month here: https://www.ko-fi.com/laurenkress

Orlando Wood is the Chief Innovation Officer of System 1. System 1 is a research company that has built its reputation in advertising testing and has a proven methodology that links emotional response to marketplace impact. Orlando is also the author of Lemon- published by the IPA, the book examines the world from left and right brain perspective and takes that learning into an evaluation of television advertising which Orlando proves and demonstrates has become a lot more left-brained in recent years. Building on the work of Peter Field and Les Binet, Orlando argues that this is leading to less memorable and less impactful advertising. In the episode, we explore the genesis of the idea, the research work that went into the book and Orlando's thoughts on why we have ended up with more left brain work and some thoughts on where all this might be heading. Sadly, Orlando's talk with the ARF at SXSW was canceled, so I am hoping those who planned to attend can listen to this and get and a very good idea of the great work that Orlando has done. The book Lemon can be found here.https://ipa.co.uk/knowledge/publications-reports/lemon

Brand Always’, is something we regularly dive and dip into at Gasp, so we are box-of-frogs excited that our kindred spirit is on the podcast. /////  **JP Hanson:** Twitter: [@RouserJP](https://twitter.com/rouserjp) [The Rouser Manifesto](https://rouser.se/manifesto/): A Proposal for How to Get Marketing Back to the Boardroom The Drum [His methods still matter – a response to ‘David Ogilvy must die’](https://www.thedrum.com/opinion/2018/01/25/his-methods-still-matter-response-david-ogilvy-must-die) [The Halo Effect](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Halo-Effect-Business-Delusions-Managers-ebook/dp/B000NY128M) by Phil Rosenzweig [How Brands Grow](https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Brands-Grow-What-Marketers/dp/0195573560) by Byron Sharp [Eat Your Greens](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Eat-Your-Greens-Wiemer-Snijders/dp/1789016754/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1550828070&sr=1-1&keywords=eat+your+greens) by Wiemer Snijders [The Long and the Short of It](https://ipa.co.uk/knowledge/publications-reports/the-long-and-the-short-of-it-balancing-short-and-long-term-marketing-strategies) by Les Binet & Peter Field **Gasp:** [Gasp](https://www.gasp4.com) Agency Website [Causing Mayhem.

  Denna vecka (den 8–12 oktober 2018) pågår EffWeek i London. Det är en vecka då mätbar effekt av marknadskommunikation står i centrum. Höjdpunkten är en konferens där Les Binet och Peter Field presenterar sina senaste rön efter att ha studerat tusentals bidrag till Storbritanniens motsvarighet till 100-Wattaren. En del av rönen överraskar, som till exempel att reklam i traditionella medier har högre verkningsgrad (ger mer "bang for the buck") än digitala medier. Det berättar Mats Rönne som är på plats i London. Han har en hel del annat att berätta. Och det gör han i avsnitt 197 av Kntnt Radio. Lyssna nu! Läs mer på www.kntnt.se/18280.

När all digital marknadsföring fokuserar på att snäva ned målgrupper eller hitta spetsigare kanaler för konvertering så diskuteras vikten av att bygga varumärke i digitala medier. Vi diskuterar bland annat varför budgetfördelningen förflyttas mer mot aktivering och mindre till att bygga varumärke och varför fördelningen 60/40 är så viktig. Vi undrar om digitalt någonsin kommer kunna gå om TV som medie för att bygga varumärke och bred kännedom. Mycket av samtalet denna vecka baseras på ”How Brands Grow” av Byron Sharp och IPA studierna ”Media in Focus” och ”The Long and the short of it” av Les Binet och Peter Field. Tre böcker vi varmt rekommenderar lyssnarna att läsa!
