  • The Marketing & Advertising Technology Report
    The Marketing & Advertising Technology Report: New & future trends to leverage 5 Foreword/About This Study This report is intended to provide recipients with a deeper understand of the fast changing landscape that is the convergence of technology and marketing/advertising. This document offers not current digital intelligence but also cultural intelligence around consumer behavior and mindset, now and trending in the future. Lauren deLisa Coleman, digi-cultural trend analyst, along with Lnk Agency, specialists in deciphering and forecasting trends within the convergence of culture & emerging technology and studying the impact of such on business and governance, have tracked, analyzed and interviewed key researchers, C-Suite executives, data science trends, and ethnographic settings to create a unique offering that provides opportunity identification, analysis and outook for the coming year period. It is no longer sustainable to solely do studies over a year(s) long period when the industry is moving at such a rapid pace, therefore, our reports are intended for real-time, of-the-moment snapshots to more completely support today’s executive demands. Further, presentation of hard statistics without true cultural intelligence applications and observations around them are not holistic enough for the skill that is needed today to truly engage with today’s popular culture, tech-savvy individuals. Thus, we are presenting a newer style in professional report documentation. This study reflects some of the key findings. 2 Executive summary: Digital Advertising/Marketing and consumer engagement in the United States is a massive, growing market undergoing a significant technology-driven evolution. Technology is reshaping the way consumers engage with advertising and marketing messages and, in turn, how media, advertising companies, and marketing profes- sionals create and delivery strategy.

  • The Scoring of America: How Secret Consumer Scores Threaten Your Privacy and Your Future
    World Privacy Forum The Scoring of America: How Secret Consumer Scores Threaten Your Privacy and Your Future By Pam Dixon and Robert Gellman April 2, 2014 Brief Summary of Report This report highlights the unexpected problems that arise from new types of predictive consumer scoring, which this report terms consumer scoring. Largely unregulated either by the Fair Credit Reporting Act or the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, new consumer scores use thousands of pieces of information about consumers’ pasts to predict how they will behave in the future. Issues of secrecy, fairness of underlying factors, use of consumer information such as race and ethnicity in predictive scores, accuracy, and the uptake in both use and ubiquity of these scores are key areas of focus. The report includes a roster of the types of consumer data used in predictive consumer scores today, as well as a roster of the consumer scores such as health risk scores, consumer prominence scores, identity and fraud scores, summarized credit statistics, among others. The report reviews the history of the credit score – which was secret for decades until legislation mandated consumer access -- and urges close examination of new consumer scores for fairness and transparency in their factors, methods, and accessibility to consumers. About the Authors Pam Dixon is the founder and Executive Director of the World Privacy Forum. She is the author of eight books, hundreds of articles, and numerous privacy studies, including her landmark Medical Identity Theft study and One Way Mirror Society study. She has testified before Congress on consumer privacy issues as well as before federal agencies.

  • Make Your Marketing Relevant by Curtis Schroeder, MBA Candidate Imagine the 60-Foot-Long Boat of the U.S
    KELLER CENTER RESEARCH REPORT INSIDER: Make Your Voice Heard – Make Your Marketing Relevant By Curtis Schroeder, MBA Candidate Imagine the 60-foot-long boat of the U.S. women’s national rowing team cutting across a crystal-clear lake in a heated 2,000-meter race. As the team synchronously rows their oars back and forth, they look forward and eagerly await direction from the coxswain, the competitor/coach seated in the stern of the boat in front of them. The coxswain calls out commands to influence the behavior of her team: Let it glide! Hold starboard! Power 10! Competing with the coxswain’s messages are the noises the boats and oars make in the water, the voices of the other competitors, and the roars of the crowd cheering their teams on to victory. For the coxswain to be most effective in her role, she knows that her team must establish a strong game plan before the race begins. To win, she must understand the makeup of her team, establish clear and concise signals that her team can recognize and respond to during the race, and communicate those signals quickly and at exactly the right times. Otherwise, the coxswain’s messages will be lost in the competing noise of the race and her team will fail to reach their potential. Sandra Zoratti and Lee Gallagher’s principles of precision marketing in their new book, Precision Marketing: Maximizing Revenue Through Relevance, parallel the roles of the coxswain. To win the race – or to generate the highest potential Return on Investment (ROI) in today’s marketplace – Zoratti and Gallagher argue that marketers must become increasingly relevant.
