Ok, ok my title is just a tad self-serving, being the coffee-consuming-beast that I am but... you get the point. Over seven million. That's how many hits I got back when I Googled the term "data driven marketing." Quite frankly I am surprised it was not higher given the amount of "talk on the street" there is about it. It's not necessarily a new phrase per se as back in 2015, Adweek described it as "... once a novel type of marketing, has evolved to become an integral...

Data has been driving many aspects of business success for the last few years, especially as the amount of information available to us through analytics tools has increased significantly almost to the point of not knowing what to do with all the insights.

Here are some of the ways I see data changing my approach to...

“It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data,” the famous problem-solver Sherlock Holmes once said. But what exactly do we mean when we use the word ‘data’? These days when marketers use the term, it’s often assumed they’re referring to numbers. In business, numbers are powerful, ever-present, and eye-popping. They help turn complex stories about revenue and customers into things that are easy to digest, like dollar figures, delta percentages, and conversion...

The data revolution is both a blessing and a challenge for the Modern Marketer. On the one hand, we now have access to more information about our prospects and customers than ever before. On the other, we are confronted with huge volumes of data that have to be properly collated, attributed, and analysed if we are to extract any marketing value.

Who are you really marketing to? It may sound like a crazy question, but it’s increasingly difficult for marketers to answer these days. Prospects and customers can no longer be seen as having a single customer journey. They exist, operate, and interact with brands on multiple platforms, devices, and channels. More than 60% of UK adults online use two or more devices daily. Not only do you have different customers and prospects interacting in different places, but also the...

Marketers love to get data about their customers, which helps them gauge patterns, predict behavior, build profiles, and serve up great content at the right time through the right channels. But there is a big difference in how first-party data and third-party data are perceived by marketers. First-party data, which companies get on their own through research, tests, and even qualitative interviews, is more trusted. Third-party data, which companies get out-of-house from other...
