The New Rules of Consumer Engagement

Rule #1: Leverage Your Existing Data

Reach the right consumer on the go.

Rule #2: Provide Elevated Experiences

Become better at telling stories to consumers through elevated experiences

Rule #3: Let People Find You

There are new ways for brands to be found. You need to help people in the real world discover your physical locations.

Rule 1

Leverage your existing data

Leverage Your First Party Data

● First party data is the most valuable data that exists, and efforts should be made to capture and utilise as much first party data as possible.

● Think about what the most relevant data sources for brands are, to maximise signals such as context, location or device.

Embrace Custom Audiences

● Upload specific segments of your customer data and show them targeted videos, promotions, coupons, etc.

● You can reach your desired segment through multiple touchpoints: YouTube, Facebook, Gmail Ads, Twitter, etc.

Create Lookalike Audiences

● You can create a “lookalike” audience of all your existing ones. These are people who share very similar characteristics from an existing audience.

● Instead of guessing about your audience, you use the most powerful algorithms in the world to create them for you.

Have Your App Discovered

89% of time spent on mobile is spent with apps, therefore it’s not surprising that Google has been investing heavily in the mobile app search space.

Brands with apps should think about whether their content will be discoverable in a future where in-app search results are displayed in search results listings.

App Indexing & App Store Optimisation

● App Indexing: Increase your install base and re-engage your app users through search.

● App Store Optimization: Improve the visibility of a mobile app in an app store.
