CADM: Re-Igniting the PassionDear CADM Members:

Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your President this comingyear. I am honored, but most importantly I am proud to representCADM. I am a long-time member and know I have some big shoes to fillbut I am up for the challenge. For sixty years, we have carried the torchfor one-to-one marketing in Chicago, and have aided in advancing theopportunities, business interests and education of our members. In today’s

dynamic evolution of channels and technologies, it is more important than ever that wecelebrate and revive our energies for the core mission of CADM: To serve, support andpromote the one-to-one marketing community in Chicago.

As a member, I have asked the questions “What is CADM?” and “What does it stand for?”for myself. And in our renewed effort to “re-ignite the passion,” the board has answeredthose questions:

What is CADM?CADM serves its members, the one-to-one marketers in greater Chicago. CADM provides a high-quality forum for the exchange of ideas; fosters member development throughbusiness, educational, and social opportunities; and acts as an industry advocate.

Why Does CADM Exist?We believe in one-to-one marketing and Chicago is its leader.

How Do We Advance our Mission?Through well designed, easily accessible, relevant and effective programming and content.

What Do We Do?We connect, educate, recognize and represent today and tomorrow’s marketing leaders.

The board and I are enthusiastically seeking volunteers to help us re-ignite the passion.Please consider volunteering for a committee. We are now forming the following committees: Membership; Sponsorship; Educational Programming; Member Recognition;Marketing; Direct From The Heart; and Events. Sign up at bit.ly/1CZvYD3.

Last But Not Least…thank you to Susan Kryl for presiding over CADM for the past twoyears. Susan previously served as President in 1980-81, and did not seek out another term.However, her passion for our organization led her to spearhead efforts in the last twoyears to keep the passion alive and to re-define CADM for future success.

I look forward to working with you!

insider Insights 9

Apple brought out the iPod, iTunes and the iPhone. Vinyl died and businesses disappeared.

A digital fire had started.

Those little icons downloaded to your smart-phone hide powerful technology and newbusiness models.

Apps are now redefining business….

Uber’s app has the taxi monopolies and authorities running scared. But their businessmodel is not just about technology…. it ismuch more about building a trust network and adding more value.

Here (chart at right) is a quick comparison between a taxi in DC and UberX:

On demand apps are pushing into many indus-tries. Is yours next?

Capture the dataFacebook captured almost every intimate detailfrom your relationship status, to brand prefer-ence, gender, location and much more.

It collected the data and now they sell it backto us.

Granular data will give you the power to dowhat seems to be “one to one” marketing.When visiting websites are you seeing thesame banner ad popping up? It’s no coinci-dence. You have been targeted!

Here are some digital marketing trends thatwill disrupt your business, whether you are disrupting yourself or you are being disrupted.

Don’t ignore them.

1. Digital marketing automation platformsThe splintering of media has made marketingat scale a nightmare. There is…

More media…

More digital channels…

More social networks…

A lot of moving parts. But there is a solution.

Technology.

Marketing used to be a creative pursuit. Thathas changed. It has become much more. Youneed a digital marketing platform. A new approach called “marketing automation.“

The race is on to own the platform. The play-ers?…many. Hubspot, Ontraport, Infusionsoft.Then you have Social Sprout, Marketo andHootsuite. The list is growing…fast.

The marketing automation raceIt doesn’t matter whether you are a contentmarketer, social media marketer, blogger whowants to scale and monetize their platform, orjust a digital marketer…

You will need a marketing platform soonerrather than later.

This scramble for the high ground and platformdomination is coming from start-ups and theestablished Enterprise technology giants.

It is a challenge for big and small. But the complexity increases at the big end of town.

To manage marketing at scale in a digital worldrequires a new breed of marketer. The data scientist. Previously they were kept in a caveand tossed scraps.

Now they will be your secret Ninja weapon.

2. Big data for personalization and identifyinginfluencersAs the web exploded, the tools to manage andmeasure the noise and information were non-existent. We cobbled together software, tech-nology and amateurs. You need professionals.And you need to capture the data.

Data is going to be your secret weapon.

Knowing more about your customer than theyknow about themselves is marketing power.Natural language processing will identify influ-encers, customer preferences and content thatworks and is viral.

Identifying influencersIdentifying global influencers in your industry or niche is starting to go mainstream.

I was surprised recently to find that technologythat sifts through 6 million web properties per

5 Digital Marketing Trends That Will Disrupt Your Business (continued)1

day over 90 days had identified me as the “#1 content marketing influencer.” This technology big data engine called “Scribble-LiveInsights ” has been developed over 10years at Cornell University. It provides insightsinto what is influence in a digital world.

Apparently influence is not based on myamazing smile or good looks but on “data.”

Platforms such as BuzzSumo, Appinions andSimply Measured are all using data to helpyou calculate your next marketing move. Italso includes identifying and creating greatcontent.

PersonalizationEnterprise platforms like Teradata allow companies with 10 million customers like the Qantas Frequent Flyer Loyalty program to dissect the data. Then they target themwith an email or even that print piece in thesnail mail that is relevant and personal.

Expect the smaller end of town to use datamore effectively to produce powerful market-ing results. Let’s look at an example.

When someone registers for a LinkedIn Webinar, they are maybe in the market for aLinkedIn course, lead generation or other relevant training. It should be tagged by yourmarketing system and used for future targetedcampaigns.

But it’s not the data that is important. It’swhat you do with the data….

3. Paid social media advertisingWhen Facebook wound back its organic reachthe game changed.

Building likes wasn’t as important anymore.But using its paid and very targeted advertis-ing data now is.

We are moving on from just chasing fluffy likes.

Now re-targeting and Facebook custom audiences allow you to get a good, measura-ble return on your advertising dollar. Face-book is now dominating the social media-advertising budget. It’s on target to hit over$14 billion in advertising revenue in 2015.

It is now becoming a serious rival to Google. •See more from Jeff Bullas on these disruptive digitaltrends in the next issue ofadMarks.

Top Tech Trends for 2015 Continued

When your friend, Keith Brophy, makes his annual TechTrends predictions, you have shared them with adMarksreaders. What’s Keith been up to in 2015?

Keith Brophy is a serial entrepreneur, IT whiz, and mas-ter marketer who has just taken over the reins at theMichigan Small Business Development Center. His recent“Tech Trends” talk in Grand Rapids drew more than 200people. Now I can share Keith’s latest predictions, based

on his constant research through reports, blogs and conversations withthought leaders. Last issue, we looked at predictions 1 through 5, withpredictions 6 through 10 covered in this issue.

Trend Prediction 6. Our choices are increasingly based on populationanalytics from expanding pools of data (big data). Our personal data isoverlaid with these pools to further predict unique impact of ourchoices on our own lives.

10 ask theDM expertsAsk the DM Experts

by Susan K. Jones, Susan K. Jones & Associatesand Ferris State University

Q.A.

“Ask the DM Experts” is a monthly adMarks feature. Professor Susan K. Jones draws on the knowledge of CADM membersand other authorities to answer your questions — so tell her what youwant to ask the experts! Contact Susan at [email protected] or fol-low her on Twitter @sjones9200.

As Keith says, “We live in an age with rapidly expanding capability tocollect data, meld it with past data, and carry out analysis to project im-pact of behaviors. As the stream of legacy and new data continues toexpand, the tempo of these insights will increase. We will become a society of constant research alignment to optimize our unique lifestyles.”

Trend Prediction 7. “Apple Watch” validates Smartwatch as platformand Smartwatch adoption exceeds 100 Million within 5 Years

Years before the iPhone launched in 2007, Keith predicted that it wouldbe transformational. Many naysayers disagreed with him, but he wasright. Now he says that the Apple Watch is the one that “redefines thecategory,” just as the iPhone did for smart phones. Interesting sidenote: Keith says that the solid gold Apple Watch is aimed at the upscaleChinese market. Keith’s specific prognostication: “The rapid user ac-ceptance of the Apple Watch platform inspires many other competitorsto provide innovative and more affordable alternatives, and smartwatchuse rapidly explodes across the world.”

Trend Prediction 8. By 2025 “The Internet of Dings” (drones & things)imposes powerful automatic monitoring and control over many aspectsof human life in several nations, as capabilities of automated drones and“The Internet of Things” blend.

Keith has talked about drones before, but now he is speculating that“The Internet of Things” will give drones the boost they need to be-come ubiquitous — replacing humans for many functions — in suchfields as policing, traffic monitoring, crowd control, safety monitoring,traffic control, and logistics.

Trend Prediction 9. Remote controlled “proxy-bots” for corporate video conferencing pave the way for widespread use of remotely drivenservice robots in the U.S. by 2025.

Imagine having the ability to high-five your fellow meeting participantsacross the world during a video conference call. That’s what Keiththinks will happen when “proxy-bots” are equipped with tactile feed-back systems. As Keith predicts, “Eventually this technology evolves sothat a vast range of human activities from plumbing to electrical wiringto painting to walking the dog are carried out remotely.”

Trend Prediction 10. Mars One fails to land humans on the planet bythe 2025 target. However it inspires another nation’s arrival by 2030and results in creation of many spin-off technologies.

Perhaps you’ve read about the competition underway for one-way tripsto Mars? Keith’s research shows that Mars One is not likely to succeed.For one thing, the costs of such a project are vastly underestimated andfor another, there’s no real plan for what comes next after a planned reality show on Mars. Keith thinks that a national space program from a country other than the USA will make it happen. As he says, “The self-supporting, contained living environment created for the mission willgenerate a vast array of technology improvements from holographic immersive life to the next level of 3D printer production facilities.” •

Should all of these people receive the same mail piece?
