Automate: Marketing automation refers to the software that exists
with the goal of automating marketing actions. Many marketing
departments have to automate repetitive tasks such as emails, social
media, and other website actions. The technology of marketing
automation makes these tasks easier.
Understand: With each action someone takes, marketing automation
can help you also learn more to use later in the sales process, for
customer delight, to upsell, etc

What should trigger a workflow?
1. List membership
1. Date-based
1. On-site behavior
1. Email actions
Converts on a specific offer
Trial ends in 1 week
Visiting a pricing page
Opens/clicks specific email, or a
list of people who consistently
engage
How to set up an automation workflow?
1. Plan your steps and map it out
1. Choose starting list and goal list
1. Write series of emails for automation
1. Limitations: Consider a suppression list and sending criteria
1. Measure and adjust - constantly
Remember: Be helpful, not pushy!

  18. Different folders on desktop and mobile
  19. Discovery through desktop - People might be bookmarking specific sections
  20. Mobile consumption of information - Trending stories, content buzz via social recommendation (assumption)
  21. Jeff - Invite Boaz to present his slides
  22. How do we know that personalization works? We have been A/B testing it constantly We run all our trials in A/B test mode in order to provide the clearest indication of the positive impact Personalized Content Recommendations have on engagement and conversion rates. It works every time - we can report on 200% and more increase in on-site conversions and upward of 300% increase in engagement for the traffic that is exposed to personalized content recommendations.
  23. Miss Conception Focus on the 95% that don’t convert Each visitor is different Why treat everyone the same?
  24. This is the logic: If you are able to serve me relevant content according to the information you already have, you got my attention Because if you serve me relevant content, it means you invested in getting to know me I appreciate it and it makes me trust you more so I feel more comfortable in introducing myself I may consume the content you’re offering, as it fits me more. This is the core of personalization - getting to know your visitors and you’ll be able relevant for them To personalize we need the content + the data. We’ve covered the data (and will continue
) now let’s talk for a second about the content
  25. You invested a lot in creation, you don’t want this investment to go to waste but, you don’t realize your content full potential, because: Hidden in resource section Disappears into the blog’s inner pages The same “leading” content is being promoted over and over again
  26. Now let’s see how it all comes together
  27. There’s a lot you can learn from this - cultural background, market conditions, competition
 You Should: Localize Highlights: language, proper format for date & time, currency, familiar layouts, style of graphics, content, content, content Example: Airbnb site - when entering from the US and from Israel - different weekend vacations are being offered Question for Jeff - Another good personalization examples you have come across with?
  28. This is gold - by looking at the search query itself you can completely understand what aspect of your service/product the visitor is interested in But, we can’t always know the query AdWords - always know the search query Organic - sometimes Google tells, sometimes don’t (depends if the user is logged in to Google or not) You Should: Suggest different content based on the search query Create designated pages for the different terms and keywords searched In the image - landing page “Dynamic Text” tool in Unbounce (a tool that matches the text that appears to the search query - in this case the user typed in Google “improve PPC campaign ROI” which is exactly what appear on the screen)
  29. ABM - targeting specific ‘groups’ of IPs that are known to belong to a specific company If you know which company your visitor is from, you can tailor a message especially for each company you are targeting Using dynamic content
  30. So far we’ve covered some of the information gathered when or before your audience got to your site and how you can use it. But, there is a lot to learn from the user behaviour within your site (all can be addressed by BrightInfo solution) Returning visitor is still anonymous, but an interested one Make sure not to treat him/her as a first-timer, and present “next stage” content You Should: recommend introductory or in-depth content according to the funnel stage
  31. How he is engaged
  32. How long is the user engaged
  33. The content that visitors consume on your site is the biggest tell It indicates their interests, their needs, and, most importantly: you can understand in what stage of the buyer’s journey they are and recommend the next content to guide them down the funnel Example: suggest blog registration after reading 2 articles and not upon entering the blog on the first time
  34. There are two implementations for personalized content recommendations: manual and automated. Manual personalization is rule-based. You define visitor lists, select the specific content pieces that will be recommended to each list, and at which points during the browsing flow. Automated personalization is algorithm-based. The algorithm continuously learns your website content assets and maps them. It then tracks visitors in real time, analyzes their behavior and the intelligence they arrive with and matches them with relevant content recommendations. The biggest impact is on conversion. Website visitors, anonymous or not, that are served relevant content are more likely to convert than those who are served generic offers, like registering to a newsletter. More than that, the longer a visitor is spending on the website before converting, the higher quality lead he is.
  35. Utilyze All your content Typical content - decreasing marginal utility (for example, blog post, being “pushed” to the bottom of the list By personalization - You can use the right content at the right time to the right user and use ALL your content assets Increase content ROI - This is a point worth emphasizing. Marketers devote considerable resources to content marketing. But after all the effort put into the creation, content disappears from view pretty quickly into the inner pages of the blog. With personalized content recommendations, you are able to extend your content shelf life and significantly increase your content ROI.
  36. Jeff - Invite Juliana to present her slides I am a Marketing Manager for HubSpot, the world’s leading inbound marketing and sales platform, working specifically with our industry teams (education, media, and nonprofit) and HubSpot for Startups program. In my current role, I manage marketing efforts across the top, middle, and bottom of the funnel from ideation through to execution. These tasks include, but are not limited to, overall program planning, blog editorial supervision, content offer creation and execution, SEO, sales enablement, event planning, and reporting.
  37. Start with a little story - imagine first date. Now imagine you went on 5 dates, and imagine you didnt just go on 5 dates, but also learned more about that partner each time and used that information to make stronger connections.
  38. That’s what lead nurturing is for your business. It’s starting with a handshake and then first datevs. proposal. or just saying buy-now.
  39. Before we talk about lead nurturing, I first want to go over the buyer journey. This is the three stages a lead goes through when deciding to buy, sign up, etc
 Your job w/ lead nurturing is to move people along this journey, and personalization can help you do this more effectively. Awareness - often happens after first intro, blog post, downloads an ebook - not necessarily know they want your product/ service, but have a problem they want to solve. Consideration - they know they need a solution to the problem, and that you might be that solution Decision - vetting you against other options and want hard fact. You job - message that resonates at each step, but also pushes someone toward the next. This is improved dramatically by incorporating the information you know about the customer.
  40. But first, we need to cover how you get this information. Now, there’s a lot of information you can get without a user self-volunteering any info: device type: referral source, region, etc
 Also opt- in to giving it to you for a price - offer education and get information Not only does this first piece of information get you info about the new prospect in your database, it also can disqualify a lead >> lead scoring
  41. So once you have the information you need from someone, and they’re in your database - how do you begin to nurture them? Just start firing emails to everyone who downloads? NO!
  42. You could send a million different emails, and build a three times as many websites
 or you could use Smart content and automation
  43. “passive” A great example of smart content...
  44. Think Amazon.com, for instance. When you visit that website, you see one set of purchase suggestions. Your friend, on the other hand, will see a completely different set of suggestions. It makes a lot of sense, right? You each have different identities, with your own preferences and needs. The website should adapt to match your browsing behavior, not the other way around.
  45. Use smart content for lead nurturing anywhere that some form of value has been delivered or a user has engaged. Huge ROI - set up once and it works for you
  46. You need to tell your content when to show smart content and to whom Use this information to build lists - for the purpose of building nurturing lists, lifecycle stage and referral source are best for creating contextual experiences Your database should work for you to build lists of people based on the criteria choose from their actions and volunteered information so that you just have to worry about attracting and converting new people
  47. Match what you know about them, with their stage in the journey - to create lists of people and content to match. E.g. awareness + technology sector show ebook , Decision + technology, show case study or Referred by ebook about social media + awareness, send social templates, or Decision + social referral, send product overview
  48. Oh, and having all the information you need to make the lists doesn't matter if you don’t have the right content to show them. Smart content is great, but passive ,your can nurture faster with automation. Instead of waiting for people to take an action and then presenting them with smart content - push the content out to them automatically.
  49. Understand: eg, did they open? what did they click on? what are they downloading? We’ll focus on email workflows for the purpose of personalization and lead nurturing. So automating a series of emails based on an initial trigger. We call this a workflow.
  50. Plan your steps Map it out (hit the whiteboard!) Build starting list Chose a goal list what do you want to happen? 1 action! Write emails for automation 3-5 - space for one a week Decide on some criteria weekdays only? business hours Consider a suppression list Measure and adjust
  51. Jeff- Recapping what we’ve covered Ari discussed how you can use Intelligence to bring the right audience Boaz explained how you can turn the audience into leads using the intelligence and personalization Juliana discussed how to nurture your leads through personalization
