Book excerpt: Attract New Customers and Exceed Revenue Goals with iDirect Marketing! “A simple concept ties this incredibly useful book together. Every marketer now is an iDirect marketer. You ignore this concept, and this book, at your own peril.” Al Ries, author of War in the Boardroom “How do you get your brand heard, trusted, and remembered? The answer is in the confluence of digital and direct to form a torrent of minimal cost/maximal result opportunities.

Now it is marketing’s turn. Rapp compiles the best thinking on a future with low-cost and no-cost connections between products and consumers. Essential reading for marketers.” Chris Anderson, author of The Long Tail “Direct marketing is interactive, and interactive marketing is direct. With an ‘iDirect’ mindset, digital platforms and innovative analytics impact the data-driven, online, offline, lead-generating, customer-retaining, multichannel direct marketing process. Rapp’s vision for reinventing marketing is a wake-up call for CMOs to think and act differently in a profoundly changed world.” John Greco, President and CEO, Direct Marketing Association “It’s increasingly important to rely on an agency for accountable iDirect solutions. The advertising agency of the future must be adept at reinventing yesterday’s interactive, direct and branding. Rapp’s cohort of experts show the way in this book.” Michael McCathren, Chick-fil-A Conversation Catalyst About the Book Reinventing Interactive and Direct Marketing focuses on how to benefit from a fundamental truth about marketing in the digital era.

To help you profit from this new reality, Stan Rapp introduces a new paradigm—iDirect—the 21st-century growth engine at the intersection of digital technologies and direct marketing practices.

Download or read book Social Media and Interactive Communications written by Mark Durkin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extent to which social media can potentially add value within various service contexts is not well understood. While at a general level it would seem that direct and immediate interactive communication with customers and stakeholders would be of benefit in terms of general communications, the integration of new media alongside more traditional marketing activities is not without difficulty. Many organisations appear seduced by what new technological communication channels are capable of but evidence suggests that those same organisations may have limited sensitivity to the appropriateness of employing social media to add value to the customers’ service experience. Launching social media initiatives appears low cost and fairly straightforward, technically, but managing the subsequent interactions and engagement appropriately, and indeed profitably, can often be beyond a firm’s resources and competencies. In this book the challenges of effectively managing interactive communications through social media is described in various service contexts, (e.g. healthcare, travel, small businesses) and within prevailing, yet ever more crucial marketing concepts, such as customer relationship management (CRM) and customer complaining behaviour. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Service Industries Journal.

Download or read book Direct and Interactive Marketing New Techniques for Fundraising Success written by Adrian Sargeant and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 2002-08-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Direct and interactive marketing generates around 15% of the voluntary income for U.S.-based nonprofits. Yet despite its significance, this form of fundraising is often overshadowed by the emphasis on major donor gifts. This special issue discusses varied aspects of direct and interactive marketing, its role in generating and building donor relationships, the impact of data protection legislation in Europe and the US, fundraising trends since September 11, and "face-to-face" marketing, an emerging new fundraising medium that successfully attracts a new generation of charity donors. With a focus on strategies in Internet fundraising, and the lessons learned so far, this issue is also an excellent guide to nonprofits investing in technology or expanding their online presence.

Download or read book Experiential Marketing written by Shaz Smilansky and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2009-02-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumers are constantly inundated with repetitive traditional advertising messages, bombarding their lives, interrupting their TV shows and generally getting in the way. The consumer does not feel any real emotional connection with these brands, and if they do buy, it is simply because the brand that shouted the loudest got their attention. This outdated approach to marketing communications is dying, and fast. Brands are realising that to secure the lifetime value of their customers by gaining true customer loyalty, they must give something back. The relationships between brands and their target audiences are being revolutionized. Experiential Marketing looks at the new experiential marketing era, which focuses on giving target audiences a fabulous brand-relevant customer experience that adds value to their lives. Experiential marketing is made up of live brand experiences - two way communications between consumers and brands, which are designed to bring brand personalities to life. This book demonstrates how experiential marketing fits in with the current marketing climate, and how to go about planning, activating and evaluating it for best results. This is essential reading for both advertising and marketing practitioners, and marketing students.
