DESCRIPTION

Let’s face it: marketing is in a big data bubble. Everyone is talking about data: big data, data analytics, and big data analytics. At the root of all this data mania in marketing is the very real revolution that’s shaping more data-driven organizations. Big data is finally opening the door to the executive suite for a more hybrid creative-analytical method. The key question data raises is how do we use it to not only know more about our customers, but to directly grow our business in significant ways? Iron Mountain has the answer: broadly embrace testing and controlled experimentation as the new “operating system” of marketing. The answer to big data’s potential is big testing.

The real revolution: from big data to big testing, big experience

Big data

Collect and organize data and wield tools to extract information and insight from it. This is the part that big data has to offer. But some of the most valuable output from such data analytics will be mere hypotheses — interesting correlations of factors and behaviors in ever-more-finely-sliced customer segments that may have meaningful impact. But these are only seeds of ideas, possibilities

Conversion Optimization

Objective: Perpetually optimize webpages to engage users and produce the highest volume of quality leads at the lowest cost.

Optimization data helps us gain an understanding of what attracts, engages and converts visitors to sales and sales.

Big testing

Take those hypotheses and be able to quickly and effectively test them to prove cause-and-effect: that those factors can indeed be leveraged to influence customer behavior. Empowering many people throughout your organization to run these tests — and to fearlessly test big ideas — is a large-scale transformation to organizational behavior and culture that we can call big testing.

Big experience

Apply your targeted data and proven tests towards delivering better customer experiences — through the web, mobile devices, call centers, in-store and in-person interactions, etc. It’s not just making the same experience better for everyone. It’s delivering more specialized experiences to many different customer segments. This mission is big experience.

There are three ways in which big testing earns its “big” label:
