Webtrends Previews TNS Digital Life Study Insights at Engage 2011
Data Is the "New Black" for Some, "New Oil" for Others
(firmenpresse) - LONDON -- (Marketwire) -- 12/06/11 -- , the global leader in unified mobile, social and web analytics and engagement, previewed exclusive research from the study at the Engage 2011 digital marketing conference. The sold out conference was attended by more than 650 digital marketing executives.
The theme of Webtrends' Engage 2011 Conference, "Your Digital Universe," aligned with the insights revealed in the report "The Impact of Digital on Marketing and Business Growth Strategies: A View From the CMO,? which was synthesized from a forthcoming wave of the Digital Life study. The size, scale and detail of the Digital Life study make it the most comprehensive study of consumer digital attitudes and behaviour to date.
Webtrends' CMO Hope Frank was interviewed for the study, which features insights from one-to-one interviews with a selection of top CMOs from industry-leading companies in the retail, FMCG, technology and automotive industries and more.
The report examines the challenges and opportunities presented to senior marketers as digital has now become the mainstream mode for engaging with consumers. Some of the report's insights include:
Though it varies from business to business, digital has meant collaboration is increasing between CMOs and other functions within the organization. Closer ties are forming with Corporate Communications, Retail and Shopper Marketing, Innovation and Product Development and CRM and Customer Service functions.
As social and mobile become more deeply woven into consumers' lives they are leaving behind ever more detailed data footprints. Sourcing this data is not the real challenge for the CMO; instead the challenge is identifying which data matters most and how it complements and integrates with existing data.
There is a desire to connect currently disparate data streams in a bid to create value that is greater than the sum of the parts. To achieve this, CMOs are investing in analytics expertise, both in-house and partner-led. The enhanced digital consumer footprint is creating a more holistic view of each individual customer -- and with it opportunities to target more precisely tailored, optimized, engaging content.
"MaryLee Sachs and TNS have done a stellar job of capturing what's top of mind for modern CMOs today, and that is undoubtedly digital," explains Webtrends CMO Hope Frank. "Digital marketing and analytics is in our DNA. Understanding how analytics fuels digital marketing success -- and how digital is critical to overall marketing success -- is core in 2012. We're honored to have had the opportunity to participate in this significant research which will support marketers to achieve remarkable digital ROI in 2012."
"The growing range of connected consumer devices and the digital behaviours they create have given rise to an explosion of data marketers can leverage -- presenting them with challenges and opportunities alike," said Simon Falconer, Global Innovation Director - Digital, TNS. He continued, "For the CMOs we engaged for this wave of Digital Life, the new challenge is very much about uncovering the truly actionable insights from this new data. We see this as a big focus area for 2012 and beyond. Webtrends' participation in this project was highly valuable given the role they play in this area of data analytics."
The next wave of TNS's Digital Life, offering qualitative insights based on interviews with global CMOs, will be released early in 2012.
