For example, is this an awareness, education or nurturecampaign? If so, do we have the proper messages to drive that desired behavioral change? What's the value proposition that's going to make my message stand out versue my competitors?Building your content gameplan: a successful Omni-Channel campaign will need a great content strategy as its foundation. Your content strategy should:· place engaging content along all points of the buyer journey· focus on addressing key pain points with a solutions-first mindset· find the right mix between standardized content (top of funnel) and personalized content (middle to end of funnel) · Identify content gapsthrough a content audit tohelp you focus your marketing resourcesStep 3 - Executing for the biggest impact - Campaign Execution and MeasurementCampaign execution: Now that you have addressed some of your content needs, it's time to start developing your channel game plan.At this point we will begin to orchestrate our campaign, which will utilize both non-personal and personal channels to engage customers where they want to engage with our brand. A typical Omni-Channel campaign will have a minimum of 4 channels working in unison and will have clear key performance indicators (KPI's) as well as an optimization plan so that you will be able to make adjustments based on the reporting data.Measuring Impact: You can't measure the effectiveness of your campaign without an analytics strategy to track customer engagement. When building your strategy, make sure they are aligned with your business imperatives as well as performance benchmarks.Examples of campaign impact could be something such as: number and percentage of goal conversions that drove customers to a call-to-action (CTA), click through rates (CTR), as well as content which performed best, etc. Ultimately, you should be monitoring metrics that matter and align with your business or strategic imperativesand optimizing campaigns accordingly.To recap, when building an Omni-Channel campaign, I recommend:· A clearly defined businessand/or strategic objective· A specific target(s) of who you want to communicate to and what type of behavior you would like to modify· Focus on developing messaging that's succinct and purposeful· What is the communication objective for the different stages of behavior change? Which messages will drive that desired behavior change? And what's the value Proposition?· What content do we have to deliver those messages and what is the Call to Action?· Orchestrate your campaign using a minimum of 4 channelsand make sure to have a metrics plan in place to help you optimize along the way Ray Gomez
