Becoming Marketing Active: The Fulcrum Guide to Getting Started with Business Marketing –  In the first part of our guide to becoming marketing active f to f Marketing firm in navi mumbai, we looked at some of the reasons that drive a business to start marketing (if you missed part one, check it out here). But once you’ve made the decision to embark on a marketing strategy for your business, what next? Where do you start and what steps should you take to ensure a smooth and successful process? As is so often the case in business (and life!), preparation is key. So before rushing into any kind of marketing, it’s important to take the time to plan, research and strategise for success. In order to create an effective marketing strategy, you need to develop a thorough understanding of your market, your competitors and your business itself. This means getting back to basics and equipping yourself with all the information you need to identify marketing activities that work for your brand. 1) Research your target market How much do you know about the target audience of your product or service? We’re not just talking about age, sex or occupation (though, of course, you need to know these too). To have the best chance of reaching your target market, you need to dig deeper and find out exactly what drives them towards purchase. What kind of triggers are they most likely to respond to? Which elements of the marketing mix have the most impact on them? How will your product or service benefit them? Understanding these aspects of your target audience will enable you to position and market your brand accordingly, so comprehensive market research is essential. It’s often easier (and more cost-effective) to outsource this type of research to a professional agency who will be better placed to obtain the information you need. 2) Analyse your competition In order to stay ahead of your competitors, you need to know who they are, what they’re doing and how they’re doing it. Once you’ve identified who your key business competitors are, look into the marketing methods they’re using and the way in which they have positioned their brand. What channels and platforms have they chosen to market their business? How are they promoting their brand and its products/services? Consider which elements are crucial to your own business and how you can position your brand in order to get ahead. 3) Define your objectives What do you want to achieve from your marketing activity? Whether it’s to increase your revenue, establish your business in a new market segment or improve brand awareness, setting clear, measurable marketing objectives is vital in understanding what steps need to be taken in order to achieve these goals. Make sure that each identified objective is specific (how much do you want to increase revenue by?), achievable (is it realistic?) and has a timeframe for accomplishment (are you aiming to achieve this goal in three months or a year?). You also need to make sure that your marketing objectives tie in with your overall business objectives. 4) Understand your business You may think you have a pretty good understanding of your business, but it’s surprising what insights can be achieved when you conduct a thorough SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats). Be rigorous, be meticulous, and above all be brutally honest. Is a lack of staff training letting your business down? Are your prices too high to compete in today’s market? Arming yourself with this knowledge is invaluable in developing a marketing strategy that leverages your company’s strengths and addresses those areas which need to be improved. In the next instalment of the Fulcrum guide to becoming marketing active, we’ll be looking at the raft of marketing channels available and helping you to identify which ones are best for your business.

An opportunity or a distraction for brand managers?

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

It would seem the hype in the lead-up to Singles Day was justified, with Alibaba posting a record $17.8 billion in online sales, easily surpassing the $14 billion record set in 2015. A startling proportion of this year’s sales were placed on a mobile device (estimated mobile purchases on Singles Day were 80 percent in 2016, compared with 68 percent in 2015 and 43 percent in 2014). And while e-commerce is getting the headlines, the interplay between online and offline shopping experiences shouldn’t be overlooked.

It is the willingness (indeed preference) of many Chinese consumers to purchase on a mobile device that enables the phenomenon of online to offline (O2O), one of the fastest growing sales and marketing opportunities in China. Fuelled in particular by the mobile payment boom, Chinese consumers are increasingly ready to engage and transact through their devices. Yet looking at recent data (eMarketer: China O2O Commerce, August 2016) it is food service, transportation and travel that dominate adoption. So as today’s marketers jump to develop O2O strategy and programs, the big question to ask is this: With current mobile payment behavior driven by services, where can or should consumer brands fit in?

We would contend that brands should look toward the existing consumer adoption of O2O, which has been services-driven, and identify where they too can provide services or utilities in order to establish engagement. To do this marketers must better understand the consumers’ product interactions in the context of their shopping missions and consumption habits.

Here are five considerations for brands wishing to exploit O2O:

Get intimate: By better understanding the target consumer’s shopping journeys and behavior, marketers can establish where opportunities exist to activate O2O. Ultimately, what O2O represents is the deliberate connection by brands of consumers’ digital actions to a physical action in-store. A simple example could be better understanding mobile search behavior and connecting “buying terms” with drive-to-store offers rather than continuing the journey with mobile content. By knowing where consumers are in the purchase path, we can activate the right content to deliver in-store traffic.

Get social: While many brands have done a great job building relationships with consumers through social channels such as WeChat, few are using this engagement to trigger purchase. Brands with great content should look to continue the dialogue further along the purchase journey. Many brands jump straight to price discounts as the most tried and tested method of stimulating O2O, but this model isn’t sustainable for long-term brand health. In its simplest form brands can formulate a dialogue with consumers that includes great product experience and highlights in-store availability. For example several brands in the cooking products category have done a great job stimulating recipe conversations—they just need a nudge to then work with a retail partner and make these recipes easy to shop in-store.

Get through barriers: Product complexity, increased competition, limited distribution, low category traffic—whatever the barrier, O2O can offer solutions for brand marketers to improve the product experience. For example, O2O can assist shoppers through range complexity, which has long been claimed by retailers and suppliers as a barrier to purchase. By arming consumers with the information they need to make an informed purchase before they go into the store, then continuing to make mobile content available at the point of purchase, the shopper’s choice is made simpler. Get connected: One of the biggest challenges for brand marketers is their limited integration into retail channels. Yet opportunities exist to provide points of connection from online to offline. Think in terms of joining the dots with consumers through your communication channels; outdoor advertising that contains a QR-based call to action highlighting availability, in-store or on-pack materials that reinforce the offer and finally coupon recognition by the retailer’s point of sale system. Once marketers get intimate with their consumers and understand their journey, they can create truly seamless and natural connections.

Get servicing: As described earlier, if service-based experiences are driving adoption of O2O, brands can look to partner with services in their consumer’s current O2O journeys. Think about a consumer using Dianping to search and book a restaurant. A beverage brand could deliver an offer associated with specific restaurants. The offer becomes a good reason for someone to choose the restaurant and creates an additional channel for the beverage brand. Taken a step further in-restaurant communications could promote the brand’s WeChat thereby driving increased engagement and further opportunity to maintain the O2O cycle.

Experiential Marketing: A Connected Approach

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]
In our 30 years of producing experiential marketing, we’ve been constantly amazed by the non-stop, high-demand race being run by corporate marketing and communications teams. Between internal and external initiatives, the range and scope of projects tackled each year is impressive. In the effort to accomplish the work, it’s sometimes easy to lose sight of how each program fits into the big picture. With numerous initiatives running simultaneously, often produced by different teams and agencies, a project may be successful stand-alone, but could potentially sacrifice cohesiveness with other programs and with overall company objectives. Building “connected” strategies has always been one of EVI’s foundational strengths. We view experiential and events production as a highly-integrated component of a corporation’s macro strategy and business communications plan, and that’s where every client relationship begins. We develop client partnerships with an “all-in” approach that positions us as a direct extension of your team. One of the ways we accomplish that is by taking more of a long-term “agency of record” mindset. While most corporations take a partner approach with their advertising and PR firms, we find it is more uncommon on the experiential and event production side. That’s something we’re working hard to change. As simple as it sounds, the brand discovery phase is crucially important, but often overlooked. It’s the foundation for everything that follows. When EVI undertakes an agency of record agreement, we immerse ourselves into the people, the mission, the products, the services, the history and the culture of a brand. How does a company want to present itself… to be perceived by its audience? What behaviors are they trying to reinforce or modify…what are the desired results? We team-up with senior leadership, marketing, branding, communications, the advertising and PR agencies, product development, technology, finance…all of the departments that make a company work. With a strategic perspective, we are able to look at all event marketing and communications objectives synergistically, providing numerous advantages in creative continuity, financial efficiencies and message effectiveness across the broader campaign. Ultimately this roadmap allows us to achieve more optimized results. That business fluency is a major reason why companies like Aramark, McAfee by Intel, and JCPenney choose to work with EVI as their long-term experiential agency on their year round calendar of events. Tod MacKenzie is Aramark’s Senior Vice President of Corporate Communications and Public Affairs. He’s an industry veteran with years of experience leading advertising and communications for companies like PepsiCo and DineEquity. When MacKenzie teamed up with new CEO Eric Foss at Aramark in 2013, they were on the verge of taking the global food, facilities and uniforms services company public, and looking to completely reshape the brand and its worldwide experiential strategy. “We recognized that we had to significantly raise the bar on our experiential marketing efforts”, says MacKenzie. “The company was doing a lot of events, but there was a lack of cohesiveness, and we just weren’t getting maximum impact. We needed an experiential agency that could partner with us across the board on an optimum strategy and on a long-term basis.” EVI President and CEO Michael Marto and his producing team came in and very quickly helped put Aramark on track. In collaboration with the company’s senior management and functional centers, and its new brand agency, EVI became an indispensable part of Aramark’s team. The company credits EVI for looking at its experiential needs from a holistic view, which is crucially important.   Aramark and EVI scrutinized every opportunity with that big picture view to optimize and connect all aspects of the company’s experiential effort. A cohesive and connected matrix of brand launch events, recognition events, leadership conferences, internal webcasts, communications media, branded entertainment and permanent installations have played a big role in supporting Aramark’s robust growth as an industry leader. Adds MacKenzie, “From the strategy and creative innovation, to the project management and producing execution, we have a highly collaborative machine that performs at a peak level. The value proposition is an undeniable success. We’re entering the fourth year of producing a full slate of events, and I can’t imagine a better way of achieving our goals.”

Benefits and Efficiencies of EVI’s Connected Agency Approach

Strategic Understanding of Corporate Mission from a toplevel business perspective enables us to produce projects that deliver results within the context of the big picture. Thorough Brand Immersion enables development of creative ideas and message cohesiveness completely aligned with your culture and brand language. Ability to very accurately deliver to the client’s tastes and expectations across multiple projects with consistent quality, flawless technical execution, and accountability for results. Ongoing client interaction and feedback through surveys, team input and involvement in strategic meetings with senior management allow us to refine solutions and stay precisely on track with key business objectives and metrics. Continuity of team members enables a very efficient, cohesive, and effective workflow, creating a client comfort factor at major positions, from project managers and producers to the creative design team. A deep working knowledge of the client organization enables seamless integration with all departments. Allows more efficient use of internal marketing communications resources. Project to project consistency avoids a repeated vetting and alignment process with multiple agencies. Enables internal marketing communications team to remain focused on primary core business objectives. Long term planning allows optimization of all resources and delivery of a much higher value proposition. Investment dollars are more efficiently amortized across numerous events and platforms through advance negotiation, increased buying power and multi-purposing of resources. Savings can go straight to the bottom line or create resources for additional projects.

Door-to-door marketing is a canvassing technique that is generally used for sales, marketing, advertising, or campaigning, in which the person or persons walk from the door of one house to the door of another, trying to sell or advertise a product or service to the general public or gather information. People who use this sales approach are often called traveling salesmen, or the archaic name drummer, to “drum up” business. This technique is also sometimes called direct sales. A variant of this involves cold calling first, when another sales representative attempts to gain agreement that a salesperson should visit.

With the realization of telephone “Do Not Call” lists it is becoming increasingly more difficult to connect with consumers and business people. An emerging trend is the deployment of very professional, highly skilled door-to-door canvassers to drive product sales and brand awareness.

Coordinating, training and motivating these teams to produce results are at the very core of Fulcrum’s proven capabilities. Fulcrum has the knowledge and experience required to implement these programs, such as best days and times to canvass, who will sell the most product; male, female, young or mature and what geographics and demographics respond best to door-to-door marketing. Put Fulcrum’s experience to work for you and avoid the costly mistakes of trying to manage these programs in-house.


Hire and Train Door-to-Door Marketing Team

If you’re in charge of hiring people, that typically means that you’ve found success in Door To Door Marketing yourself. You know what it takes to be great, but now you’re stuck with an entirely new problem. How do you find others who will be just as good (if not better) and will stick around and grow into important influencers invested in the long term growth of the company? A great D2D sales company is a great recruiting company. So what does that greatness look like?

First off, you need to realize that you’re not going to hire a superstar every time. If you think you have found one, be careful. It’s not hard for someone to seem golden during one interview and you don’t want to be fooled.

Even if you think the candidate does have a lot of great experience working in the field for other companies, you have to realize that success doesn’t always translate. What worked for them at previous companies probably won’t work as well for you. In fact, their success will probably make them stubborn; after all, what reason do they have to follow your approach when they’ve figured out their own?

It’s also possible that the rep’s previous company might have had much better-developed training and selling systems than you do, and that system was the key reason they killed it. If you’re not developing a competitive system, what does that communicate about your company? The more dialed-in you are about a rep’s success, the more likely you are to attract and keep strong performers.

Ultimate Marketing Activations – Boost Sales with Experiential Marketing

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

To understand anything about experiential marketing and brand activations, one only has to look back at the experience New York’s sportscaster, Bill Mazer, used to offer his fans every Sunday night in his “Sports Fantasy” segment. This television programme was more than just your regular reality TV show or sports game. The show revolved around giving “arm chair athletes” the opportunity to really experience the game, the glory and all the excitement that comes with being in the hot seat: the hero.

Bill Mazer’s Sports Fantasy isn’t the only ultimate sports marketing activation that we have seen enjoy such great success, and it certainly won’t be the last. What is it about such experiential marketing or brand activations that boosts sales and promotes customer loyalty? Is it really that effective and is it only aimed at the sports world? First and foremost, experiential marketing can benefit any business and while it has been wildly successful in the sporting world, it has also churned out phenomenal sales figures in a multitude of other industries.

Let’s take a look at why experiential marketing is such a huge success:

  • It presents the opportunity for product trials at the best possible time – when a consumer is primed to buy. Consumers who want to get involved and experience your products and services are half way there already. Providing them with the opportunity to try out your product is the best way to close the sale.
  • It creates hype around your brand and of course a media buzz – experiential marketing is the ultimate solution for companies and brands looking to create a buzz. You can expect those involved to Tweet, Instagram and even post on Facebook about their experience and that’s a great deal of exposure for you right there.
  • Consumer imaginations and aspirations are resonated – consumers have a desire to have unique brand experiences, especially if it is something they are passionate about or interested in. Providing fun, interesting and memorable brand experiences is the best way to get consumers talking about you, remembering you and recommending you to family and friends.
  • Experiential marketing is measurable. This means you can translate consumer reactions into valuable data that the brand can use for future marketing and sales drives.
  • It’s a great way to start a dialogue with your most loyal consumers and keep it going. Keeping in touch with your target audience is essential if you want your business to grow while continuing to meet their needs. Experiential marketing provides the ultimate way of communicating with your consumers and finding out what they want and need as they grow and develop with your brand.

10 Elements of Great Experience Design

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

Simplicity

Under Steve Jobs, simple, clean and distinctive design became the hallmark of Apple products. But as Jobs said, “It takes a lot of hard work to make something simple, to truly understand the underlying challenges and come up with elegant solutions.” To design great experiences, start with the fundamentals:

  • What is the essence of what you want to achieve?
  • How can you align the experience to that core concept?
  • What elements don’t fit the main idea and should be removed?

2. On-Brand

Inessah Selditz, an interaction designer at the LAB at Rockwell Group, says always identify two or three brand attributes to weave into the best design design of your live event. “These attributes will make up a ‘unifying touchstone’ you’ll come back to again and again over the course of a project.” For example, Apple’s attributes include innovation and sleek style, while Zappos’ brand represents customer service and fun.

Throughout the creative and production process, revisit these attributes to determine if your ideas and experience elements are on target.

3. Storytelling Elements

Selditz also says a meaningful experience design includes a storyline. “This is really important because that’s how our minds work. Stories are what makes something memorable.”

Think about the story you want visitors to experience as they pass through your space. From the time they enter to the time they leave, what do they think, experience and remember? Is the goal to educate, entertain—or both?

4. Seamless Flow

Whatever your ultimate event goal is—increase brand awareness, generate leads or drive sales—the attendee journey from entrance to exit needs to be strategically designed.

  • Decide what, where and how your story is communicated.
  • Define how visitors interact with staff and technology along the journey.
  • Determine how to capture contact or lead information.
  • Identify visitors’ next steps once the experience is complete.

A seamless attendee flow throughout makes the most immersive and engaging experience design.

5. Cohesive

A sense of cohesion is crucial to the best experience design. Every element doesn’t have to be identical, but you do need for all elements to share a strong, unified visual relationship throughout the design.

From the smallest touch to the largest element, be consistent in colors, fonts and images to maximize your brand impact.

6. Balance

In Chinese philosophy, yin and yang describe how opposite forces are actually complementary and interconnected. This concept of balancing conflicting elements plays a critical role in the best experience design.

For example, it isn’t easy to incorporate the latest technology and create a warm, welcoming environment—but with the right balance, it can be achieved.

7. Focused

Similar to the simplicity exercise, stop and consider what you want as the main focus of the experience: what element, message or feeling should stand out first and foremost?

Once you’ve decided, use that information to help decide what to—and what not to—include in your best experience design. Prioritize elements that support your focus, and remove anything that distracts or doesn’t fit.

8. Accent Lighting

Lighting is one of the easiest ways to create a mood or environment. From moving fixtures and video integration to holograms and other AV effects, lighting can enhance design and help articulate your story.

Be intentional with lighting elements. Consider how lights can be used to create depth and highlight focus points.

9. Balanced Tech

We’ve talked about all the ways event technologies are used to create a more cohesive experience. But don’t be lured into using technology just because everyone else is.

Jamie Barlow, VP of creative technology at Sparks, says there are critical steps to making a sound technology investment. Barlow says to ask:

  • How do you connect the experience beyond the real world touch point?
  • How can technology help bring your brand’s best assets to life?
  • What specific action do you want attendees to do, and what tools do they need to make it happen?
  • Does the technology medium map back to the story you’re communicating?

Use your answers to help balance your technology selection and supporting media.

10. Multisensory

Jinsop Lee, a TED Talent Search winner and industrial designer, believes great design incorporates all five senses to create an unforgettable experience.

Plan and design your experience to provide attendees with a great experience across multiple senses. Good design looks great, but shouldn’t it also feel great, smell great, sound great and even taste great?

B2B Experiential Marketing – When does it work?

What is experiential marketing? On the rise in recent years, guerrilla Marketing organizations in pune and experiential marketing is all about customer interaction with your brand. It offers a unique experience with products or services, allowing customers to get a feel for how they would use it in their lives. For years marketers have been trying to get customers to use and trial their products. In this way it’s not a new concept; there have however, certainly been some innovative spins on how it’s done. Let’s look at experiential marketing, how it can work for B2Bs and some of the ways it can help build your brand.

Emotional + Experiential Branding = Experiential Marketing The two elements that underpin experiential marketing are emotional branding and experiential branding.

Emotional branding: is about building the relationship between your brand and customers. Promoting emotional benefits like brand trust, security and credibility as a result of engaging with your brand is crucial. Experiential branding: designs and creates interactions that are sensory in nature, which emotionally influences preferences, shaping brand perception, and influencing satisfaction and loyalty. An excellent experiential marketing campaign is able to fuse both elements seamlessly together. Experiential Marketing for B2Bs In recent years interest in B2B experiential marketing has grown and some of the initial hesitation surrounding it has been replaced with a working understanding, when to do it, and how it stimulates ROI. For B2Bs, experiential marketing is generally less obvious, with the focus often on services (for example) in place of B2C exciting product launches. Oftentimes the B2B budget is also stretched. However we are seeing marketers begin to recognise the potentials that the experience can offer consumers. “The success of brand experience within the B2C market has not gone unnoticed, and B2B marketers are waking up to the potential of brand experience. However, there is a long way to go before they catch up with their B2C counterparts.” – Graham Ede, Ion Group 3 Examples of B2B experiential marketing Location with B2Bs can be one of the major barriers, and while it may not be easy to do experiential marketing in quite the same way as B2C, there’s certainly room to employ some of the same principals. Creating sensory interactions that promote core feelings of trust, and awareness of your product or services is central to this. Fulcrum marketing in public spaces – Linked with experiential, some marketers use a form of Fulcrum marketing. They tend to hold this drive in places where there are high concentrations of business buyers. Branded promotional staff can offer business people the opportunity to enter in a promotion, or sign up to attend an event whilst promoting the benefits of the product.  demonstrations & reward – as part of a targeted marketing strategy, those in the IT space can offer information via webinar or video, which can showcase some aspects of the technology solution. Some marketing and web-based tools such as  offer a free trial period, together with online coaching via Skype. This allows the user to build confidence in using the tool, and to experience all of the benefits of the trial period. At the end of the trial period (7 days), the participant is given a report with feedback on how well they have used the tool. Then they are awarded a certificate. Surprises and games – Surprising customers by showing up where they least expect you, gifting them, or sending them a card is a way to provide an out of the box experience and drive brand awareness. Another option could be to exhibit at a partner’s event as IBM did. Their interactive stand came complete with a candy bar, and plasma screens which posted live tweets from event attendees. Digital technology such as apps and games are also opportunity areas, and while often costly, look set to become more widespread and affordable in future. Experiential marketing reflects the growing importance of emphasising emotions to build successful brands. Digital media offers expanding opportunities to offer such experiences. In the ever-competitive B2B marketplace, it’s no longer enough to rely on traditional modes for lead generation. B2B marketers need to consider the complete kit that is available to them including; social media, mobile, search, paid advertising, print, telemarketing and increasingly placing emotion at the heart of it all with an experiential approach.

An opportunity or a distraction for brand managers?

[siteorigin_widget class="SiteOrigin_Widget_Headline_Widget"][/siteorigin_widget]

It would seem the hype in the lead-up to Singles Day was justified, with Alibaba posting a record $17.8 billion in online sales, easily surpassing the $14 billion record set in 2015. A startling proportion of this year’s sales were placed on a mobile device (estimated mobile purchases on Singles Day were 80 percent in 2016, compared with 68 percent in 2015 and 43 percent in 2014). And while e-commerce is getting the headlines, the interplay between online and offline shopping experiences shouldn’t be overlooked.

It is the willingness (indeed preference) of many Chinese consumers to purchase on a mobile device that enables the phenomenon of online to offline (O2O), one of the fastest growing sales and marketing opportunities in China. Fuelled in particular by the mobile payment boom, Chinese consumers are increasingly ready to engage and transact through their devices. Yet looking at recent data (eMarketer: China O2O Commerce, August 2016) it is food service, transportation and travel that dominate adoption. So as today’s marketers jump to develop O2O strategy and programs, the big question to ask is this: With current mobile payment behavior driven by services, where can or should consumer brands fit in?

We would contend that brands should look toward the existing consumer adoption of O2O, which has been services-driven, and identify where they too can provide services or utilities in order to establish engagement. To do this marketers must better understand the consumers’ product interactions in the context of their shopping missions and consumption habits.

Here are five considerations for brands wishing to exploit O2O:

Get intimate: By better understanding the target consumer’s shopping journeys and behavior, marketers can establish where opportunities exist to activate O2O. Ultimately, what O2O represents is the deliberate connection by brands of consumers’ digital actions to a physical action in-store. A simple example could be better understanding mobile search behavior and connecting “buying terms” with drive-to-store offers rather than continuing the journey with mobile content. By knowing where consumers are in the purchase path, we can activate the right content to deliver in-store traffic.

Get social: While many brands have done a great job building relationships with consumers through social channels such as WeChat, few are using this engagement to trigger purchase. Brands with great content should look to continue the dialogue further along the purchase journey. Many brands jump straight to price discounts as the most tried and tested method of stimulating O2O, but this model isn’t sustainable for long-term brand health. In its simplest form brands can formulate a dialogue with consumers that includes great product experience and highlights in-store availability. For example several brands in the cooking products category have done a great job stimulating recipe conversations—they just need a nudge to then work with a retail partner and make these recipes easy to shop in-store.

Get through barriers: Product complexity, increased competition, limited distribution, low category traffic—whatever the barrier, O2O can offer solutions for brand marketers to improve the product experience. For example, O2O can assist shoppers through range complexity, which has long been claimed by retailers and suppliers as a barrier to purchase. By arming consumers with the information they need to make an informed purchase before they go into the store, then continuing to make mobile content available at the point of purchase, the shopper’s choice is made simpler. Get connected: One of the biggest challenges for brand marketers is their limited integration into retail channels. Yet opportunities exist to provide points of connection from online to offline. Think in terms of joining the dots with consumers through your communication channels; outdoor advertising that contains a QR-based call to action highlighting availability, in-store or on-pack materials that reinforce the offer and finally coupon recognition by the retailer’s point of sale system. Once marketers get intimate with their consumers and understand their journey, they can create truly seamless and natural connections.

Get servicing: As described earlier, if service-based experiences are driving adoption of O2O, brands can look to partner with services in their consumer’s current O2O journeys. Think about a consumer using Dianping to search and book a restaurant. A beverage brand could deliver an offer associated with specific restaurants. The offer becomes a good reason for someone to choose the restaurant and creates an additional channel for the beverage brand. Taken a step further in-restaurant communications could promote the brand’s WeChat thereby driving increased engagement and further opportunity to maintain the O2O cycle.
