1 Digital Marketing. Simplified.

2 DIGITAL MARKETING PAIN POINTS Research indicates that there are numerous barriers to effective management of digital marketing campaigns, including: Agencies and vendors use different tools, systems, and protocols Campaigns lack cohesion because so many hands touch the process Controls and methods have to be reengineered for each new campaign Service teams don t understand marketing objectives Corporate policies and guidelines are so cumbersome that business units work off-platform Time is so limited that tagging, reporting, and measurement are often neglected Underlying technology becomes obsolete too quickly Simplify Your Digital Marketing Digital marketing is revolutionizing the way you interact with consumers, giving you the power to share your knowledge, products, and brands in real time, in every corner of the world. You can publish ideas, presentations, videos, promotions, and catalogs across a broad range of digital spaces. You can reach the right people at the right time with the right information. Real-time measurement techniques allow marketers to identify consumer segments and target the right messages at consumers in these spaces. But how do you manage and measure an increasingly complex system of digital campaigns and engagements? How do you collaborate effectively with partners and agencies spread across multiple time zones and with differing levels of expertise? How do you efficiently reach consumers across multiple channels? Digital marketing lifecycle should be simple and holistic. After years of successfully executing digital marketing campaigns and working with a broad range of clients, we intimately understand the frustrations, challenges, and opportunities of working with multiple brands across various geographies through numerous agencies. We know the technology and marketing issues that get in the way of seamless collaboration. That s why we ve partnered with marketing leader WPP, a global advertising agency to create BrandEdge.

Together, these features can reduce time to market by up to 50% (based on previous engagements).

These listeners can be configured to capture data across various digital assets and channels such as websites, ad banners, and s. The data is collected and centrally stored for consistent and comprehensive views of consumer behavior, allowing you to locate existing consumers and target future consumers. Listen provides a 3600 view of your consumers across all digital touch points.

5 ENGAGE The Engage module allows marketers to communicate with consumers through a suite of fully integrated marketing tools. Marketers can leverage the insights gained from the Understand module to activate targeted campaigns and achieve a deeper level of consumer engagement. It also draws on available digital assets in the central repository (DAM) to quickly launch new campaigns. Features: Single sign-on allows brand managers to execute campaigns right from the platform Re-use and launch digital assets like Infographics, videos, and produced ads from the central repository (DAM) in the Build module Application Suite includes campaign planning tools such as Quantcast (audience research), Visible Technologies (social listening), and Google Trends Support and integration for multiple campaign management tools, including 24/7 Real Media (ad server) and Buddy Media (social media campaigns). UNDERSTAND The Platforms Understand module uses the Unified Consumer Profile to generate superior consumer insight and enable effective segmentation and personalization as you better serve existing consumers and attract new consumers. Because the information you need is no longer scattered, BrandEdge allows marketers to generate truly actionable insights. The result is better targeted and better performing digital marketing campaigns. Features: Audience Intelligence capability leverages the UCP from the Listen module to generate granular, interactive, and consumer-centric reports for better targeting existing consumers Real-time and customized analytics quickly identify new consumer segments

6 Putting it all Together to Increase Marketing Efficiency and Effectiveness The four modules of BLUE bring together the best of technology and marketing onto a single, unified platform, making it easy for vendors, agencies, and internal stakeholders to efficiently work together, no matter what their level of expertise. Information and processes are stored in the cloud and the platform provides end-to-end accountability across both technology and marketing operations. BrandEdge transforms the full spectrum of digital marketing activities including creation and management of digital assets, data management, coordination with multiple partners, and campaign execution. Components from each phase of the process bring something valuable to the digital marketing equation. While the central repository of digital assets (DAM) ensures you no longer have to reinvent the wheel every time you launch a campaign, the Collaboration Portal streamlines the coordination and approval process. And while automated workflows boost productivity freeing up the marketing team to spend more time on strategy the performance dashboard gives marketers a quick pulse of key dimensions within a given brand or campaign. At a glance, you can see agency performance, brand performance across markets and channels. This help you to access the required data points to make quick strategic decision. In addition, listening tools allow you to access the consumer online conversations and integrate the listened data across channels into a unified consumer profile (UCP). Analytics tools use the consumer data stored in UCP to provide demographics and psychographic segmenting to enable targeted marketing by enterprises. Because BrandEdge is designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing marketing tools, you can increase the return on existing technology investments while using a framework based on industry-best standards.
