stimulation activities
It is question about, how we link and lead the activities;
• Content is King
• Customer is King
Keep in mind to create content that is full of data and
analytics.
KPI’s should include engagement, amplification, and
reach.

13. Good News
There is still irrefutable evidence that we can have
dramatic effects on choices and behavior.
Bad News
But there is also growing evidence that these effects
are contrary to customers expectation in a digital
world.
Good News
There is practical steps to ensure we build a strong
customer engagement.
Bad News
But what happens when we possibly try too hard?
