Using marketing analytics to drive superior growth
善用營(yíng)銷分析學(xué)促進(jìn)銷售更快增長(zhǎng)
Companies have so many analytical options at their disposal that they often become paralyzed, defaulting to just one approach.公司可用的分析工具太多, 這令他們常常變得猶豫不決, 最后默認(rèn)使用某一種分析方法。

There’s no question that the development of better analytical tools and approaches in recent years has given business leaders significant new decision-making firepower. Yet while advanced analytics provide the ability to increase growth and marketing return on investment (MROI), organizations seem almost paralyzed by the choices on offer. As a result, business leaders tend to rely on just one planning and performance-management approach. They quickly find that even the most advanced single methodology has limits. 毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),近年來(lái)開發(fā)出來(lái)的性能更加卓越的分析工具和方法,為企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人進(jìn)行決策提供了全新的動(dòng)力。然而盡管高級(jí)分析學(xué)可以為促進(jìn)銷售增長(zhǎng)和提高營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率提供幫助，有許多企業(yè)因?yàn)檫x擇過(guò)多，幾乎有點(diǎn)無(wú)所適從。結(jié)果，企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人傾向于只使用一套計(jì)劃和經(jīng)營(yíng)管理方法。他們很快意識(shí)到，單一方法就算是再先進(jìn)，也有其自身的不足。
 
The diverse activities and audiences that marketing dollars typically support and the variety of investment time horizons call for a more sophisticated approach. In our experience, the best way for business leaders to improve marketing effectiveness is to integrate MROI options in a way that takes advantage of the best assets of each. The benefits can be enormous: our review of more than 400 diverse client engagements from the past eight years, across industries and regions, found that an integrated analytics approach can free up some 15 to 20 percent of marketing spending. Worldwide, that equates to as much as $200 billion that can be reinvested by companies or drop straight to the bottom line. 營(yíng)銷活動(dòng)的多樣化、營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用通常支持的受眾以及投資時(shí)間界限的多樣化要求使用更加精密的方法。根據(jù)我們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人提升營(yíng)銷效益的最佳途徑是將營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率各種方案以一種兼顧各種資產(chǎn)最大優(yōu)點(diǎn)的方式進(jìn)行整合。這么做效果卓著：我們通過(guò)對(duì)過(guò)去8年來(lái)遍布各地、橫跨各行業(yè)的400多位各種各樣的客戶案例總結(jié)分析，發(fā)現(xiàn)整合分析方法可以節(jié)省15%到20%的營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用。從全世界范圍來(lái)看，這相當(dāng)于2000億美元，公司可以用來(lái)進(jìn)行重新投資或者直接將營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用壓到最低。
Here’s one example. A property-and-casualty insurance company in the United States increased marketing productivity by more than 15 percent each year from 2009 to 2012. The company was able to keep marketing spending flat over this period, even as related spending across the industry grew by 62 percent. As the chief marketing officer put it, “Marketing analytics have allowed us to make every decision we made before, better.”
我們來(lái)看一個(gè)例子。美國(guó)的一家財(cái)產(chǎn)和意外保險(xiǎn)公司，從2009年到2012年，營(yíng)銷效率以每年超過(guò)15%的速度增長(zhǎng)。這種情況下，該公司還能夠在這段時(shí)間內(nèi)將營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用持平，而行業(yè)內(nèi)相關(guān)營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用增長(zhǎng)了62%。該公司首席營(yíng)銷經(jīng)理說(shuō)：“營(yíng)銷分析法使我們做的每個(gè)決定都比以前更好。”
Anchoring analytics to strategy
將分析學(xué)融入戰(zhàn)略
A company’s overarching strategy should ground its choice of analytical options. Without a strategy anchor, we find companies often allocate marketing dollars based largely on the previous year's budget or on what business line or product fared well in recent quarters. Those approaches can devolve into “beauty contests” that reward the coolest proposal or the department that shouts the loudest rather than the area that most needs to grow or defend its current position. 一個(gè)公司的整體戰(zhàn)略應(yīng)該建立在對(duì)各種分析方案的選擇上。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果沒(méi)有一個(gè)戰(zhàn)略定位，許多公司經(jīng)常在很大程度上會(huì)依據(jù)上一年度的財(cái)政預(yù)算或最近幾個(gè)季度哪些業(yè)務(wù)線或產(chǎn)品表現(xiàn)不俗來(lái)分配營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用。這些方法可能會(huì)退化成“選美賽”—獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)最酷的方案或者嚷嚷得最厲害的部門，而不是分配給那些最需要成長(zhǎng)或者保持當(dāng)前位置的部門。
A more useful approach measures proposals based on their strategic return, economic value, and payback window. Evaluating options using such scores provides a consistent lens for comparison, and these measurements can be combined with preconditions such as baseline spending, thresholds for certain media, and prior commitments.
一個(gè)更為有用的方法基于戰(zhàn)略回報(bào)、經(jīng)濟(jì)價(jià)值和回報(bào)期限等方面對(duì)方案進(jìn)行評(píng)估。評(píng)估方案采用這種分?jǐn)?shù)提供了一個(gè)持續(xù)的圖景用以作比較，而且這些評(píng)估可以和一些前提條件如基本費(fèi)用，特定媒體的門檻，優(yōu)先承諾等聯(lián)合使用。
The other prerequisite in shaping an effective MROI portfolio is understanding your target consumers’ buying behavior. That behavior has changed so radically in the past five years that old ways of thinking about the consumer—such as the marketing “funnel”—generally don’t apply. 要形成一個(gè)有效的營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率組合，另一項(xiàng)前提是了解目標(biāo)消費(fèi)者的購(gòu)買行為。在過(guò)去的5年里消費(fèi)者購(gòu)買行為發(fā)生了巨大的變化，那些考慮消費(fèi)者的如營(yíng)銷“漏斗”的老路子，已經(jīng)基本上行不通了。Where the funnel approach prioritized generating as much brand awareness as possible, the consumer decision journey recognizes that the buying process is more dynamic and that consumer behavior is subject to many different moments of influence.¹ 1.See David Court et al., “The consumer decision journey,” McKinsey Quarterly, June 2009. For insight into the impact of digitization, see David Edelman, Kelly Ungerman, and Edwin van Bommel, “Digitizing the consumer decision journey,” June 2014.   (A sidebar, “Five questions for maximizing MROI,” highlights additional considerations.) 營(yíng)銷“漏斗”法重點(diǎn)放在樹立品牌意識(shí)，而消費(fèi)者決策過(guò)程分析法則承認(rèn)消費(fèi)者購(gòu)買過(guò)程更加靈活多變，消費(fèi)者行為受到許多不同環(huán)節(jié)的影響。（1參見David Court 《消費(fèi)者決策過(guò)程》，麥肯錫期刊，2009年6月。要了解更多數(shù)字化的影響，參見David Edelman, Kelly Ungerman, and Edwin van Bommel，《消費(fèi)者決策過(guò)程數(shù)字化》，2014年6月）（補(bǔ)充：《營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率最大化的五個(gè)問(wèn)題》，強(qiáng)調(diào)其他一些要考慮的方面。）
One home-appliance company, for example, typically spent a large portion of its marketing budget on print, television, and display advertising to get into the consideration set of its target consumers. Yet analysis of the consumer decision journey showed that most people looking for home appliances browsed retailers’ websites—and fewer than 9 percent visited the manufacturer’s own site. When the company shifted spending away from general advertising to distributor website content, it gained 21 percent in e-commerce sales. 例如：一家家用電器公司，通常會(huì)將其營(yíng)銷預(yù)算的很大一部分花在印刷、電視和廣告展示以引起特定目標(biāo)消費(fèi)者的關(guān)注。而對(duì)消費(fèi)者決策過(guò)程的分析表明，大多數(shù)消費(fèi)者通過(guò)瀏覽零售商的網(wǎng)站尋找家用電器，只有不到9%的人瀏覽生產(chǎn)商自身的網(wǎng)站。當(dāng)公司將營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用從一般廣告轉(zhuǎn)移到分銷商內(nèi)容網(wǎng)站上，公司電子商務(wù)銷售額增加了21%。
Making better decisions 更好地決策
While new sources of data have improved the science of marketing analytics, “art” retains an important role; business judgment is needed to challenge or validate approaches, but creativity is necessary to develop new ways of using data or to identify new opportunities for unlocking data. These “soft” skills are particularly useful because data availability and quality can run the gamut. For instance, while online data allow “audience reached” to be measured in great detail, other consumer data are often highly aggregated and difficult to access. But such challenges shouldn’t impede the use of data for better decision making, provided teams follow three simple steps. 新的數(shù)據(jù)來(lái)源改善了營(yíng)銷分析學(xué)的科學(xué)性，但分析學(xué)的“藝術(shù)性”仍起著重要作用；商業(yè)判斷需要勇于挑戰(zhàn)或者驗(yàn)證各種方法, 但創(chuàng)新能力對(duì)開發(fā)使用數(shù)據(jù)新方法或使用解鎖數(shù)據(jù)確定新的機(jī)會(huì)非常重要。這些“軟”技能特別有用，因?yàn)閿?shù)據(jù)可用性和質(zhì)量可以覆蓋全過(guò)程。比如，線上數(shù)據(jù)允許對(duì) “到達(dá)受眾”進(jìn)行詳細(xì)評(píng)估，別的消費(fèi)者數(shù)據(jù)經(jīng)常是高度集成并難以進(jìn)入。但假如團(tuán)隊(duì)遵循下面三個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單步驟，這些挑戰(zhàn)就不會(huì)影響數(shù)據(jù)的使用，從而做出更好的決策。
1. Identify the best analytical approaches　確定最佳的分析方法
To establish the right marketing mix, organizations need to evaluate the pros and cons of each of the many available tools and methods to determine which best support their strategy. When it comes to nondirect marketing, the prevailing choices include the following:
要建立正確的營(yíng)銷組合，企業(yè)需要評(píng)估許多可用工具和方法的利弊以確定哪些才能最有力地支持他們的戰(zhàn)略。當(dāng)涉及到非直接營(yíng)銷，主流的選擇包含以下方面：

• Advanced analytics approaches such as marketing-mix modeling (MMM).MMM uses big data to determine the effectiveness of spending by channel. This approach statistically links marketing investments to other drivers of sales and often includes external variables such as seasonality and competitor and promotional activities to uncover both longitudinal effects (changes in individuals and segments over time) and interaction effects (differences among offline, online, and—in the most advanced models—social-media activities). MMM can be used for both long-range strategic purposes and near-term tactical planning, but it does have limitations: it requires high-quality data on sales and marketing spending going back over a period of years; it cannot measure activities that change little over time (for example, out-of-house or outdoor media); and it cannot measure the long-term effects of investing in any one touchpoint, such as a new mobile app or social-media feed. MMM also requires users with sufficiently deep econometric knowledge to understand the models and a scenario-planning tool to model budget implications of spending decisions.　 高級(jí)分析方法，比如營(yíng)銷組合模式。營(yíng)銷組合模式使用大數(shù)據(jù)以確定渠道費(fèi)用的效果。這個(gè)方法通過(guò)數(shù)據(jù)將營(yíng)銷投資與其它銷售動(dòng)力聯(lián)系起來(lái)，且常常包括外部變量如季節(jié)性、競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者和促銷活動(dòng)以揭示縱向效應(yīng)（一段時(shí)間內(nèi)個(gè)人和某些部分的變化）及互動(dòng)效應(yīng)（離線、在線以及大多數(shù)高級(jí)模型里都有社會(huì)媒體活動(dòng)之間的區(qū)別）營(yíng)銷組合模型既可以用以長(zhǎng)期戰(zhàn)略目標(biāo)也可以用來(lái)作為短期戰(zhàn)術(shù)計(jì)劃，但該模型也有不足：它需要高質(zhì)量的銷售數(shù)據(jù)和以及過(guò)去幾年內(nèi)的營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用數(shù)據(jù)；它不能評(píng)估一段時(shí)期內(nèi)變化很小的營(yíng)銷活動(dòng)（如戶外媒體）；另外，它也不能評(píng)估任何一個(gè)觸點(diǎn)里的長(zhǎng)期投資效應(yīng)，比如一個(gè)新的手機(jī)應(yīng)用軟件或社交媒體反饋。營(yíng)銷組合模型也為用戶提供相當(dāng)深度的計(jì)量經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)知識(shí)以理解模型和情景計(jì)劃工具以形成支出決策預(yù)算模型，揭示各種隱含關(guān)聯(lián)。
• Heuristics such as reach, cost, quality (RCQ).RCQ disaggregates each touchpoint into its component parts—the number of target consumers reached, cost per unique touch, the quality of the engagement—using both data and structured judgment. It is often used when MMM is not feasible, such as when there is limited data; when the rate of spending is relatively constant throughout the year, as is the case with sponsorships; and with persistent, always-on media where the marginal investment effects are harder to isolate. RCQ brings all touchpoints back to the same unit of measurement so they can be more easily compared. It is relatively straightforward to execute, often with little more than an Excel model. In practice, though, calibrating the value of each touchpoint can be challenging given the differences among channels. RCQ also lacks the ability to account for network or interaction effects and is heavily dependent on the assumptions that feed it. 探試學(xué)，比如RCQ法，即范圍、成本和質(zhì)量。這個(gè)方法將每個(gè)觸發(fā)點(diǎn)分解成各個(gè)成分—目標(biāo)消費(fèi)者的范圍數(shù)量、每個(gè)觸發(fā)點(diǎn)的平均成本、活動(dòng)的質(zhì)量—使用數(shù)據(jù)和結(jié)構(gòu)判斷做分析。當(dāng)營(yíng)銷組合模式方法不可行，比如數(shù)據(jù)有限時(shí)常常使用探試法；當(dāng)活動(dòng)包含贊助使整年的費(fèi)率相對(duì)穩(wěn)定時(shí)；以及在持續(xù)不斷投放媒體廣告邊際效益變得更難分離時(shí)。RCQ法將所有觸發(fā)點(diǎn)帶回到同一個(gè)評(píng)估單元，這么一來(lái)可以很容易對(duì)觸發(fā)點(diǎn)做比較。該方法相對(duì)直接易于執(zhí)行，往往和一個(gè)EXCEL模型差不多。盡管在實(shí)際運(yùn)用中，考慮到各種渠道之間的差異，要確定每個(gè)觸發(fā)點(diǎn)的價(jià)值很有挑戰(zhàn)性。RCQ方法也不能解釋網(wǎng)絡(luò)或互動(dòng)效應(yīng)，并且十分依賴用于該方法的各種假設(shè)。
• Emerging approaches such as attribution modeling.As advertising dollars move online, attribution becomes increasingly important for online media buying and marketing execution. Attribution modeling refers to the set of rules or algorithms that govern how credit for converting traffic to sales is assigned to online touchpoints, such as an e-mail campaign, online ad, social-networking feed, or website.。Those credits help marketers evaluate the relative success of different online investment activities in driving sales. The most widely used scoring methods take a basic rules-based approach, such as “last touch/click,” which assigns 100 percent of the credit to the last touchpoint before conversion. But newer methods that use statistical modeling, regression techniques, and sophisticated algorithms that tie into real-time bidding systems are gaining traction for their analytical rigor. While these approaches are a step up from methods tied to rules, they still typically depend on cookie data as an input, which limits the richness of the data set and consequently makes it difficult to accurately attribute the importance of each of the online touchpoints. 歸因建模等新興方法的出現(xiàn)。由于廣告費(fèi)用流向在線網(wǎng)絡(luò)，歸因?qū)τ诖_定在線媒體購(gòu)買和營(yíng)銷執(zhí)行方面變得日益重要。歸因建模是指一套規(guī)則或算法，用以管理流量轉(zhuǎn)化為銷售的分值如何分配給各個(gè)在線觸發(fā)點(diǎn)，比如EMAIL活動(dòng)、網(wǎng)絡(luò)廣告、社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)反饋或者網(wǎng)絡(luò)。這些分值幫助營(yíng)銷人員評(píng)估推動(dòng)銷售增長(zhǎng)的不同在線投資活動(dòng)，以確定有哪些相對(duì)成功之處最廣泛使用的計(jì)分方法采用基本的基于規(guī)則的方法，比如“最后觸發(fā)/點(diǎn)擊”，把全部的分?jǐn)?shù)分配給轉(zhuǎn)換前的最后觸發(fā)點(diǎn)。 但新出現(xiàn)的方法使用統(tǒng)計(jì)模型，回歸技術(shù)和更為精密的算法與實(shí)時(shí)的競(jìng)價(jià)系統(tǒng)相連，這些方法為他們進(jìn)行嚴(yán)密分析提供了助力。盡管這些方法比那些依賴規(guī)則的方法更進(jìn)了一步，它們通常仍然依賴作為輸入數(shù)據(jù)的cookie（文本信息）數(shù)據(jù)，這限制了數(shù)據(jù)集的豐富性，最終導(dǎo)致對(duì)每個(gè)在線觸發(fā)點(diǎn)的重要性準(zhǔn)確歸因變得很困難。

2. Integrate capabilities to generate insights 
整合各種能力以獲得深刻見解
Although some companies rely on just one analytical technique, the greatest returns come when MROI tools are used in concert. An integrated approach, which includes pulling in direct-response data and insights, reduces the biases inherent in any one MROI method and provides business leaders with the flexibility to shift the budget toward activities that produce the most bang for their buck. 雖然有一些公司只依賴于某一種分析方法，但是最好的回報(bào)還是來(lái)自對(duì)營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率方法的整合使用。作為一種綜合的分析方法，包括了：可以拉動(dòng)直接反應(yīng)的數(shù)據(jù)和見解、可以減小任何一種營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率方法偏見性、能令企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人靈活決策將預(yù)算投向可產(chǎn)生最大效益的營(yíng)銷活動(dòng)。
 
So how do these techniques work together? A company may find, for instance, that TV, digital, print, and radio make up about 80 percent of its marketing spending. Since those activities generate audience-measurement data that can be tracked longitudinally, it makes sense to use MMM. But digital spending can be refined further using attribution modeling to pinpoint the activities within broad categories—such as search or display—that are likely to generate the most conversion. The company could then use heuristics analysis such as RCQ to monitor the remaining 20 percent of its spending, which may go toward sponsorships and out-of-home advertising to capture the company’s non-TV-watching target audience. 怎樣才能使這些方法協(xié)同工作呢？或許公司會(huì)覺(jué)得，例如電視廣告、數(shù)字化廣告、印刷廣告以及廣播廣告加起來(lái)差不多占了整個(gè)營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用的80%。既然這些活動(dòng)生成的受眾評(píng)估數(shù)據(jù)可以縱向跟蹤，使用營(yíng)銷組合模型方法就變得可行。但是通過(guò)使用歸因模型在大范圍類別里精確定位---比如搜索或展示等最有可能產(chǎn)生銷售轉(zhuǎn)化的活動(dòng)，數(shù)字營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用可以得到進(jìn)一步精確化。然后公司可以使用探索式分析法，如RCQ（范圍、成本、質(zhì)量）法來(lái)監(jiān)控剩余20 ％的支出，這些支出可能會(huì)轉(zhuǎn)向贊助活動(dòng)及戶外廣告，以便為公司獲取不看電視的目標(biāo)受眾。
Developing common response curves across analytical techniques helps marketers put the values of different approaches on common footing. The organization can then use a decision-support tool to integrate the results, allowing business leaders to track and share marketing performance on a near-real-time basis and course correct as needed.
跨分析技術(shù)開發(fā)普通反應(yīng)曲線幫助營(yíng)銷人員把不同方法的價(jià)值建立在普通立腳點(diǎn)上。企業(yè)可以用一個(gè)決策支持工具整合結(jié)果，讓企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人可以跟蹤并分享基于接近實(shí)時(shí)銷售的營(yíng)銷業(yè)績(jī)并可根據(jù)需要改變進(jìn)程。
An international power company, for example, used RCQ analysis to adjust its out-of-home and sponsorship mix, efforts that increased reach within its target audience and raised the efficiency of marketing communications by 10 to 15 percent. 又例如，一個(gè)國(guó)際電力公司，采用RCQ分析法調(diào)整了公司的戶外廣告和贊助組合投資方案，這一努力使公司擴(kuò)大了目標(biāo)受眾的范圍并將營(yíng)銷傳播的效率從10%提高到15%。The company then turned to MMM to get a more granular MROI assessment of its spending on digital versus traditional media. It found that while each €1 million invested online generated 1,300 new consumers, the same investment in TV, print, and radio helped the company retain 4,300 consumers (40 percent of whom were likely to stay loyal to the brand over the long term). Those insights helped the company understand where to best focus its spending and messaging for both attracting new customers and keeping existing ones. 然后公司轉(zhuǎn)向營(yíng)銷組合模型方法以得到對(duì)數(shù)字媒體與傳統(tǒng)媒體對(duì)照的支出更細(xì)化的營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率評(píng)估。公司發(fā)現(xiàn)每投入在線廣告100萬(wàn)產(chǎn)生1300個(gè)新客戶，而100萬(wàn)投入到電視，印刷和廣播則幫助公司留住4300個(gè)消費(fèi)者（有40%左右的人在很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間里會(huì)忠于公司品牌）。這些見解讓公司知道應(yīng)該將費(fèi)用和信息聚焦何處，以吸引新客戶并留住老客戶。In fine-tuning the mix, it can be tempting to allocate money to short-term initiatives that generate high ROI. That bias is fed by the fact that so much data comes from consumers engaging in short-term behavior, such as signing up for brand-related news and promotions on a smartphone or buying a product on sale. That short-term effect typically comprises 10 to 20 percent of total sales, while the brand, a longer-term asset, accounts for the rest. Businesses need to ensure their mix models are capable of examining marketing effectiveness over both time horizons.在細(xì)調(diào)組合方案時(shí)，公司很有可能經(jīng)不住高回報(bào)的誘惑而把錢投入到短期活動(dòng)中去。這種傾向是有事實(shí)依據(jù)的，有許多來(lái)自消費(fèi)者的短期行為的數(shù)據(jù)可以證明，例如為品牌相關(guān)消息或智能手機(jī)促銷注冊(cè)登記或購(gòu)買打折產(chǎn)品。短期效應(yīng)通常占到總銷售額的10-20%，而品牌作為長(zhǎng)期資產(chǎn)，則占到總銷售額的80-90%。企業(yè)需要確定組合模型能夠基于時(shí)間和范圍兩個(gè)緯度對(duì)營(yíng)銷效果進(jìn)行檢測(cè)。
One consumer food brand almost fell into this short-term trap. It launched a campaign using Facebook advertising, contests, photo-sharing incentives, and shared-shopping-list apps. At a fraction of the cost, the approach delivered sales results similar to those generated by more traditional marketing, which included heavy TV and significant print advertising. Not surprisingly, the brand considered shifting spending from TV and print advertising to social-media channels. Yet when long-term effects were included in its calculations, the impact of its digital efforts was cut by half. If the company had proceeded with significantly cutting its TV spending, as traditional MMM suggested, it would have reduced the net present value of the brand’s profit.
一個(gè)食物消費(fèi)品牌幾乎掉進(jìn)了這種短期陷阱。該品牌通過(guò)臉譜網(wǎng)的廣告、競(jìng)賽、相片分享激勵(lì)機(jī)制和共享購(gòu)物清單應(yīng)用軟件發(fā)起了一場(chǎng)營(yíng)銷活動(dòng)。在成本這個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)，這個(gè)方法得到與較為傳統(tǒng)的營(yíng)銷方法產(chǎn)生的基本一致的銷售結(jié)果，傳統(tǒng)的營(yíng)銷方法包括密集的電視廣告、大量的印刷廣告。該品牌考慮將營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用從電視和印刷廣告轉(zhuǎn)移到社交媒體渠道上來(lái)，這毫不奇怪。然而將長(zhǎng)期效應(yīng)一起考量時(shí)，數(shù)字化努力的效果就會(huì)減半。正如傳統(tǒng)的營(yíng)銷組合模型方式所顯示，如果公司大量地縮減電視廣告費(fèi)用，該公司的凈收益價(jià)值就會(huì)降低。
3. Put the analytical approach at the heart of the organization
把分析方法置于企業(yè)的核心地位
It’s not uncommon for teams to outsource analysis or throw it over the wall to an internal analytics group. When the findings come back, however, those same teams may be reluctant to implement them because they don’t fully understand or trust the numbers. 對(duì)許多團(tuán)隊(duì)來(lái)說(shuō)，進(jìn)行數(shù)據(jù)分析外包或者將這一工作扔給內(nèi)部的分析團(tuán)隊(duì)，是很平常的事情。然而，當(dāng)分析結(jié)果返回公司后，這些營(yíng)銷團(tuán)隊(duì)可能不愿意執(zhí)行，因?yàn)樗麄儾荒軌虺浞掷斫饣蛐湃芜@些數(shù)據(jù)。
To solve that problem, marketers must work closely with data scientists, marketing researchers, and digital analysts to question assumptions, formulate hypotheses, and fine-tune the math. Companies also need to cultivate “translators,” individuals who both understand the analytics and speak the language of business. One financial-services company, for instance, set up councils within its marketing function to bring the creative and analytical halves of the department together. The councils helped analysts understand the business goals and helped creatives understand how analysis could inform marketing programs. We’ve seen such collaboration cut the duration of MROI efforts in half. 要解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題，營(yíng)銷人員必須和數(shù)據(jù)專家緊密工作，數(shù)據(jù)分析師要質(zhì)疑舊假設(shè)，提出新假設(shè)，并對(duì)數(shù)學(xué)模型進(jìn)行微調(diào)。公司需要培養(yǎng)既懂得分析學(xué)又懂得商務(wù)的“翻譯人員”。例如，一個(gè)金融服務(wù)公司，在營(yíng)銷功能框架下設(shè)立了委員會(huì)以便將創(chuàng)意部門和分析部門融合到一起。委員會(huì)幫助分析師理解商業(yè)目標(biāo)，又幫助創(chuàng)意人員理解分析方法怎么激活營(yíng)銷項(xiàng)目。我們已見過(guò)這樣的組合，將營(yíng)銷投資回報(bào)率分析過(guò)程縮短了一半時(shí)間。
Speed and agility are also important. Insights from the consumer decision journey and the marketing-mix allocation should inform the tactical media mix. Actual results should be compared with target figures as they come in, with the mix and budget adjusted accordingly. Attribution modeling can be especially helpful with in-process campaign changes, since digital spending can be modified on very short notice. Our research shows that the best-performing organizations can reallocate as much as 80 percent of their digital-marketing budget during a campaign. 速度與靈活性也非常重要。來(lái)自消費(fèi)者決策過(guò)程和混合營(yíng)銷分配的深刻見解可以激活戰(zhàn)術(shù)媒體組合。隨著實(shí)際結(jié)果數(shù)據(jù)的進(jìn)入，應(yīng)當(dāng)將實(shí)際結(jié)果數(shù)據(jù)和目標(biāo)數(shù)字相比較，并對(duì)組合制和預(yù)算進(jìn)行相應(yīng)調(diào)整。由于數(shù)字化營(yíng)銷費(fèi)用能夠在得到短期通知后進(jìn)行調(diào)整，歸因建模對(duì)處理進(jìn)程內(nèi)的活動(dòng)變化特別有用。我們的研究表明，最佳經(jīng)營(yíng)公司能夠?qū)�營(yíng)銷活動(dòng)中80%的數(shù)字營(yíng)銷預(yù)算進(jìn)行重新分配。
The pressure on business leaders to demonstrate return on investment from a diverse portfolio of marketing programs is only increasing. The data to make smarter decisions are available, as are the analytical tools. We believe that taking an integrated analytics approach is the key to uncovering meaningful insights and driving above-market growth for brands.
企業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者通過(guò)多種組合的營(yíng)銷計(jì)劃來(lái)證明投資回報(bào)率的壓力有增無(wú)減。要用數(shù)據(jù)做出更明智的決策，就應(yīng)當(dāng)使用分析工具。我們相信采用整合分析方法發(fā)掘非凡見解和推動(dòng)品牌超越營(yíng)銷增長(zhǎng)的關(guān)鍵所在。
