POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS:DAY THREE: WEDNESDAY,25th JUNE 2014

WORKSHOP A: 9:00- 12:00A-Z of Measuring your digital marketing ROI success – or even failure!

With today’s consumers operating across many devices, brands now have to use multi-channel approaches to engage with consumers: whether digital, social or out-of-home. However, many struggle to measure the metrics that really matter: Facebook Likes typically don’t produce much revenue, and there is increasing pressure to ‘justify’ marketing expenditure on any channel. Furthermore, knowing what doesn’t work is just as vital. In this workshop, we’ll explore how to measure return on investment (either good or bad) using advanced methods derived from financial modelling.

In this workshop, delegates will examine: • How to identify your value drivers across digital, social and elsewhere • Optimising your marketing mix through channel attribution strategies • Producing an evaluation plan or ROI measurement strategy • Techniques and tools for analytics in digital and social media

Hugh Stephens, Director, Dialogue Consulting

WORKSHOP B: 1:00- 4:00How to build a marketing strategy that withstands changes in technology

There’s no doubt that marketing has changed rapidly in the past decade. Getting the right mix is easier said than done and embracing new technology is not without its risks. In this environment, the most successful marketers are those who are able to balance the “traditional” with the “new world”.

In this workshop, delegates will examine: • How has mobile changed the shopping experience • Marketing costs vs benefits • Examining the international trends and how Australia can catch up • Learning how to leverage your brand and improve your bottom line results • Defining the use of various technology platforms including Salesforce, Adobe, HP, Oracle to support the digital marketing ecosystem

Dheeraj Chowdhury, Principle Consultant – Business Platforms, Infosys

(Morning, afternoon tea and lunch will be provided for all delegates)
