The Value in Measurement report from JICMAIL and DMA (Data & Marketing Association) UK is available and is an informative and interesting read for anyone looking to understand effective cross channel measurement for marketing campaigns. Staggeringly 65% of respondents still report a misalignment on measurement and reporting across channels. That's a crazy figure but does highlight challenges of measuring each marketing channel fairly. The report provides recommendations on how to create an aligned view for looking at performance. You can access the report at the following link. I would thoroughly recommend https://lnkd.in/ehXasu4C #jicmail #dma #paperplanes #measurement

Have you got questions about ‘Shopify Tax’ and the impending additional cost? There are 3 levels of the new Shopify Tax system. Manual Tax (free), Basic Tax (free), Shopify Tax (% Fee but Capped) If you’re only selling to the UK/EU market, as it stands at the moment the Basic tax is very much inline with your current experience with the tax set up on shopify. You can create manual tax overrides but you handle the registrations, and taxes are based of off that. Need to know more.....Don’t worry, we’ve pulled together a high level overview of it for you. #ShopifyExperts #TaxChanges #SupportingEachOther

UK marketers want to use 'Uber-Style' surge pricing. Almost half of UK marketers are considering dynamic pricing, adjusting prices based on demand, according to Emarsys research. The survey of over 250 marketers reveals that 47% are contemplating this strategy, with 15% very likely to implement it soon. The #retail and leisure sectors could see the biggest impact, with 54% of marketers likely to adopt surge pricing. Ross Williams highlights that dynamic pricing, driven by #AI, can reward loyal customers and manage high demand or frequently returned products. AI-powered tools are crucial, with 21% of marketers already using them for pricing (this number seems high to me) and 41% considering adoption. #ecommerce
