Study Notes

Digital Marketing Strategy Overview

  • Digital strategy definition: A clear vision of desired outcomes over years, coupled with a researched path to achieve that vision, embraced by leadership, and incorporating clear deliverables.

  • Above-the-line vs below-the-line marketing:

    • Above-the-line: Mass market advertising (TV, radio, press, display, outdoor). Aims to build brand and push promotions to broad audiences
    • Below-the-line: Targeted promotions tailored to individual consumers or segments. More focused and personalized.
    • Through-the-line: Integrated use of above-the-line and below-the-line techniques.

  • Digital Marketing Challenges: Limited communication space/time, necessitating impactful messaging and a test-and-learn approach.

Barriers to Entry

  • High Barriers: Industries with specific regulatory bodies, licensing, expertise requirements (e.g., financial services). High costs associated with meeting these criteria.

  • Low Barriers: Industries with easy access to resources and knowledge (e.g., photography). Minimal investment and effort required to enter the market.

  • Digital Marketing Context: New entrants are common in most digital markets, though factors like economies of scale and brand equity are often less crucial than they used to be. Technology sectors are highly receptive to disruption.

Perceptual Mapping

  • Positioning Maps: No difference in approach between digital and traditional marketing. Brand and positioning consistency across all marketing channels crucial for success.

  • Brand Launching: Easier today than in the past, given quick and easy online brand creation tools. However, careful consideration of customer perception and competitor analysis is important.

Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV) & Cost Per Acquisition (CPA)

  • CLTV: The total value/profit attributed to a customer throughout their entire relationship. Calculation varies depending on the business.

  • CPA: A common metric in digital marketing. Tracks the cost to acquire a customer. While valuable, it's considered too simplistic a metric alone.

Marketing Segmentation

  • Geographic: Simplest form; focuses on location. Very basic and doesn't provide information on individuals.

  • Demographic: Common method. Categorizes by age, gender, education, occupation, income, etc. Assumes similar characteristics lead to similar behaviors, which is not always the case.

  • Behavioral: Understands buying patterns and usage behaviors. Highly relevant in today's data-driven world. Focuses on specific products or use occasions. Adaptable to behavior changes in the customer's life. However, life changes may influence behaviors, so up-to-date data is important.
