We are very excited that this year we’ve managed to accomplish the beginning of this growth by acquiring several companies that we already knew well and had partnered with successfully. Sanoma Media Finland expanded into festivals and events by acquiring N.C.D.

  • Conversational Advertising?
    What is Conversational Advertising? Conversational Advertising A report from commissioned by 1 Conversational Advertising June 2010 Conversational Advertising What is Conversational Advertising? What is Conversational Advertising? Conversational Advertising is the agreed messaging-based communication between the consumer and a brand to deliver consumer benefits to the consumer. Conversational Advertising capitalizes on the opted-in database developed by the brand to establish an ongoing relationship with the consumer. In doing so, the concept evolves beyond the traditional campaign ideology that has become the cornerstone of advertising. Campaigns, by their very nature, represent an occasional touch-point with the consumer, and therefore are limited in their ability to encourage the ongoing interaction and engagement that brands desire. As the name suggests, Conversational Advertising introduces a discursive element to what has been until now, a largely time-restricted engagement opportunity during a campaign. In the digital age, engagement is critical. Once a consumer has opted in and become engaged, it then becomes counterintuitive to send an occasional communication. The effectiveness of the opt-in model is to maintain that relationship between the brand and the consumer, measured by the Cost Per Engagement (CPE). An engaged consumer also represents a higher response rate. By generating an opt-in database, the likelihood of developing a response from a consumer into a conversation increases dramatically. Conversational Advertising addresses the existing messaging practices which are fleeting and largely ineffective beyond the realms of the campaign. By encouraging the brand to regularly communicate with the consumer this ensures that it remains “front of mind”. In effect, Conversational Advertising will have the impact of a web site – a constant in the view of the consumer – whilst providing user data on three levels.

The one area that we feel is certain to gain momentum and have a huge impact on how the mobile industry develops in 2014 is the number of brands that we will see moving from the sidelines and fully into the game. The impact of this will be seen both in the gains in mobile spend as brands move away from the 1% average that we’ve been seeing and start moving towards 10-15% mobile spend with increased ROIs as a result. We will also start to see how mobile is driving both innovation in marketing and transformation of business. As always, the MMA will be providing support and guidance for the entire industry, shining a light on inspiration, capability development, measurement and advocacy allowing all constituents to continue building their businesses, with mobile at its core. We look forward to supporting you and the industry. I wish you much success in 2014.
