4. We have to remember that we're representing and we're trying to reach


a diverse customer pool, so our teams also have to be diverse. (My unique
selling points) to reflect society

Inclusive marketing 包容性行銷 (https://all-in.withgoogle.com/)


seeks to represent a variety of perspectives, particularly those that have
been marginalized in the past
If a company focuses its marketing exclusively on a specific age group,
gender, ethnicity, or other identity traits, they’re likely missing out on
reaching potential customer. By approaching marketing decisions with a
focus on inclusion, a company can positively and authentically market to
the diversity that exists in their audience, and the world.
e.g. Race, Socioeconomic status, Age, Ability, Gender, Sexual
orientation, Religion, Geographic location, Culture, Political perspective,
Military status, Languages spoken
audience’s demographics

5. Whether you’re developing marketing goals, researching your target


audience, planning a marketing campaign, or analyzing data, keep in
mind the principles of inclusive marketing. Maintaining a broader
perspective of your audience will help you establish a deeper connection
with your customers.
Questions to be inclusive marketing:
Am I representing a group in a way that can be harmful to them?
Who am I trying to reach, and are they represented in this piece of work?
Who's missing? Who is not in the room?

3
Those are: military conflict, obscenity, drugs, tobacco, adult content,
arms, crime, death/injury, online piracy, hate speech, terrorism, spam, and
fake news
Some strategies marketers take to maintain brand safety are:
 Buy ad space directly from reputable publishers. This will ensure
your ads aren’t placed where you don’t want them.
Note: doing this may mean you miss out on potential sales since you’re limiting yourself

to certain customers

 Use image recognition. This will identify images that deem content
unsafe for your brand.
 Select keywords to avoid. Publishers will allow you to choose
keywords to avoid, so you can include those when you submit your
content.
 Apply geotargeting. This means making sure you know which
regions your ads are running in, which helps you make sure you are
remaining sensitive and relevant to all your customers.

digital marketing strategy: a plan for achieving specific goals through


online channels to support and advance business objectives
1. research your audience 2. set meaningful goals
(who and what you trying to accomplish)
2. most of your budget goes to the top and middle sections to help you
reach new customers and nurture leads
You first need to research your audience and set goals that support the business

overall. Next, you review your existing media for gaps, select marketing channels and

plan the content you'll use to reach your goals. Finally, you'll create a plan to measure

and analyze results.

Media Mix: the combination of digital channels used to reach your goals
+ how you divide your budget among them

這些 activities goes to your marketing funnel


e.g. high end jewelry retailer who wants to drive a 30% increase in
revenue within three years
知道要有時間(awareness-consideration) 因此對症下藥 加強 awareness

Paid, owned, earned media


Search engine optimization (SEO) is a set of practices designed to
increase the quantity and quality of traffic to a website.

Customer personas (profiles of your customers) - a group of similar


people in a desirable audience.
Creating customer personas can help a company figure out how to reach
people at the right time and with the right message, offer, or products
tools: Marketing automation tools like HubSpot, Xtensio, and Up Close
& Persona have persona generators built in (use 現有 surveys, interviews,
data 去問問題分析 – Questions based your business goals)
 help a company figure out how to reach people at the right time and
with the right message, offer, or products
 allow you to focus your time and energy on prospective leads that
may actually turn into customers

Business goals- desired aims, achievements, or outcomes for a business


big, long-term, and have the potential to affect an entire company
常見的 goals: increasing profits, gaining new customers, improving customer service,
raising productivity, or launching new products or services

Marketing goals- be smaller, more targeted, and related to marketing


activities, to support a business's larger aims
常 見 的 goals : raising brand awareness, increasing web traffic, generating
new leads, and driving sales or conversions

How to connect? goals be specific and measurable


e.g. Grow our number of active customers by 25% over the next two
years by adding five frequently-requested features to our software
increase our lead generation by 40% in the next year by running upper-
funnel ads that highlight our new features and increasing our mid-funnel
budget by 20%

lead- someone who is already interested in a company

Well-defined goals are important at all levels of a business. Business


goals are long-term aims that can impact a company at all levels.
Marketing goals are specific to marketing efforts, but should always
contribute to business-wide aims

SMART considerations
To make sure your goals are SMART, consider the following factors:
 Specific: What do you want to accomplish?
 Measurable: What are the success metrics that will determine
whether the objective has been met?
 Attainable: Is this a realistic goal that you think you can meet?
 Relevant: Is this specific marketing goal aligned with your
company’s overall objectives?
 Time-bound: What is a realistic time frame that this goal can be met
within?
Data storytelling has three main components: data, a compelling
narrative, and clear visualizations.
The three-part data story structure:
Context, Complication(the reason the situation requires action),
Resolution
attribution - determine which content and channels are responsible for
generating leads, conversions, or sign-ups. Attribution allows businesses
to use reporting data to find out which of their marketing and sales efforts
are the most successful.
Data-driven attribution uses statistics to determine which touchpoint
leads to conversions. It measures customer engagement with marketing
content across channels to understand what is motivating them to take
action. It assigns credit to each touchpoint based on statistics like which
ads or keywords most often lead to conversions.

CLV - a metric that indicates the total revenue a business can reasonably
expect from a single customer account throughout the business
relationship
: A higher CLV often means a company can justify spending more on
customer acquisition because they expect to earn more from each
customer over time.
performance marketing - It's the process of using concrete information
about customer behaviors to plan and refine marketing and sales
strategies.
