If you plan to travel to London this fall, there are many things to do, but if you happen to attend the Modern Marketing Experience in London, you are only a short walk and one Tube stop from the famous Madame Tussauds. Nearly 500 million people have visited this attraction since its first permanent home was established on Baker Street in London in 1835. With all the changes in society, and how companies conduct business, it is amazing that one that has been around for nearly...

I've been thinking about sound and how it relates to cross channel marketing. How it connects the online and offline experiences of your customers. We commonly consider things like identity and connecting disparate systems to create a seamless environment that encourages customer loyalty, but sound not usually part of the equation. Grocery stores, bakeries and realtors count on shoppers' sense of smell to close the deal, but sound is the most underutilized of the five senses...

Earlier this year, Oracle Marketing Cloud, in partnership with The CMO Club released the aptly titled The CMO Solution Guide to Leveraging New Technology and Marketing...

Let's cut right to the chase. The world of eCommerce and marketing can be broken down into three distinct groups, as per statistics via Forrester. The Good: Nearly 70% of consumers purchase online regularly. The Bad: More than 40% of retailers said that their marketing cost per order increased in the past year, while another 46% said their new customer acquisition costs increased. The Ugly: Customers continue to receive messaging and advertising that is not relevant to them...

I will refrain from trotting out the latest and greatest mobile statistics. Surely by now you are intimately aware of the fact that, well pretty much the entire world is on a mobile device for essentially the entire day. And yes, I will stop calling you Shirley. In October of last year, Oracle Marketing Cloud, in partnership with Edison Research conducted an online survey of a 1,000 holiday shoppers (18+ years old) when most people had not completed all of their holiday...

Much has been written, and rightly so, as to the need for a healthy relationship and partnership between a CMO and CIO. The sheer amount of data that's now readily available alone is reason enough for these two c-suiters to come together and work as one toward a common goal. That common goal of course is increased revenue for the company. Yes there are different ways to achieve that goal for sure but at the end of the day it's about the bottom line and everyone knows it. ...

You know the old saying "the early bird catches the worm?" Of course you do, what am I saying. Well when it comes to holiday shoppers it appears, based on research, that "the early retailer catches the revenue." Ok that's a horrible play on words, forgive me - but the fact still remains that according to research conducted by Edison Research, in partnership with the Oracle Marketing Cloud, revealed that the early retailer does indeed catch the revenue. We gift-wrapped all the...

According to UrbanDictionary.com "When someone tells you to get real, they want you to get a reality check and to stop behaving as though you're living in a fantasy world." The phrase "get real" is incredibly apropos given the five stats I will share with you below. The stats were part of a presentation my colleague, Group VP Pat Galvin made yesterday during day 1 of the eTailEast conference in Boston. The title of his presentation was Three Steps to Adaptive Marketing in...
