  • Why the Guild Wars 2 Economy Isn’t a Moneymaker

    Guild bank

    After having played Guild Wars 2 for 2 weeks, I’ve found a rather interesting comparison between its in-game economy and the World of Warcraft economy. In World of Warcraft, there’s a limit of 32,767 players who can participate in your faction’s Auction House, the in-game market. On some Warcraft realms, that number is significantly lower. Thus, the Warcraft Auction House often has areas of shortages in certain materials that are essential. There is significant scarcity, which creates opportunity for enormous profits, even as a low-level character, if you are willing to do the work to obtain those items and place them up for sale.

    In Guild Wars 2, the Trading Post (the Auction House equivalent) is a global, shared marketplace with up to 3 million participants. Every item in the game is a commodity in high supply, often with dozens or hundreds of sellers constantly undercutting each other, sometimes below their cost of acquisition.

    What does this mean for the entrepreneurial player? As of right now, Guild Wars 2 is a far more hostile place to try to earn some coin through speculation. The shared marketplace means that except for a handful of very high-end items, there is effectively no scarcity in game. No scarcity means that the price of goods eventually falls to the cost of production of those goods. The opportunity for arbitrage – obtaining a good at one price and reselling it at a different price – is extremely narrow.

    For the average player, this is a good thing. It gives those players the opportunity to obtain goods at close to production cost, which means that leveling up a character’s trade skills doesn’t take an exorbitant amount of gold. For the entrepreneur, however, there is little opportunity to be found beyond high-volume, low margin trades and temporary, small swings in pricing. One forum poster joked that to make any money as an in-game entrepreneur, you need the skills and tools of a Wall Street trader, and you’re better off just gambling on Wall Street and taking your profits to buy in-game coins.

    What can you learn from this? If you’re in a market with no scarcity at all, you’ve got a problem unless you are consistently the lowest cost provider. That’s why social media has become increasing difficult a place to work in: the general market is so overcrowded that there’s no scarcity of any kind. In order to make it useful to your business, you’ve got to segment out a portion of the market and identify the scarcity in it, then play to that particular scarcity in order to be effective, in order to make some money. If you don’t, you’re competing against a global marketplace where content is the commodity and it’s not the highest quality that wins, but the lowest cost of production. This, by the way, also explains why there’s an enormous river of crap being published every day.

  • Sneaking through a networking event

    PodCamp Boston 5

    Here’s a fun exercise to try at your next in-person marketing event. The difficulty of this exercise scales with how centered on your product, service, or business you are, and its value scales inversely to that self-centeredness. The more you can lose yourself, the more you’ll gain from the exercise. This trick is also an outstanding one for folks who are more introverted and normally struggle at networking events.

    See how long you can get through a networking event without giving out any substantial information at all. When asked common questions, use answers like, “Oh, the usual” and then immediately redirect the conversation back to the other person and get them talking about themselves, their work, and their company. Here’s how an example exchange might go:

    Eventgoer: Hey, how’s it going?
    You: Oh, the usual. What’s new with you?
    Eventgoer: Pretty good. So what are you working on these days?
    You: Same old stuff. What about you, what’s working for you these days? Are you still at…
    Eventgoer: Yeah, I’ve got this project I’m working on right now on marketing metrics and… (conversation continues)

    The marketer in you will be screaming inside your head, “TALK ABOUT HOW AWESOME WE ARE”. Resist that temptation strongly. Instead, work the room as a mirror of the people who are in it, asking questions, learning as much as you can, sharing other people’s stories as appropriate. At the end of the evening, see if you have come away with significantly more information and more contacts than you normally do from a networking event. More important, see what kinds of responses you get from people you talk to.

    Why this works: people LOVE to talk about themselves and their companies, just as you (as a marketer) love to do the same. We tend to build more favorable opinions of people who listen to us, and we tend to want to keep talking to those people. If we can get out of our own way, the floodgates of information will open for us!

    Give it a try!

  • Official Twitter Analytics: Most Hidden Ever

    Over the weekend I was playing around with the different ad platforms for social networks and discovered something interesting: my Twitter account was fully enabled for Twitter analytics. So was the SHIFT Communications account and half a dozen other accounts that I help to manage. Here’s how to find it, in order to save you some time.

    First, go into your settings menu and find Twitter Ads. Notice that there’s no mention whatsoever of Analytics.

    Twitter / Interactions

    From the Ads homepage, go to Analytics and find Timeline Activity.

    Advertise with Twitter - Twitter Ads

    What you see here is the first of two pages of Twitter Analytics. The data you get is fairly thin. You get follow and unfollow counts over the last 3 days, you get mentions, and then you get the ability to see Favorites, Retweets, and Replies. Links that you share also get you a bit of click count:

    Timeline Activity - Twitter Ads

    What’s annoying is that the CSV download contains none of the follow/unfollow data. You only get Favorites, Retweets, and Replies, making the use of third party tools like link shorteners still mandatory.

    The last section you get is a brief overview of your entire Twitter history:

    Followers - Twitter Ads

    That’s all you get for now from Twitter. It’s a good start, but it’s not nearly enough if you want to go crunching serious numbers to find out Twitter’s impact on your marketing efforts. For that you’ll still need to heavily rely on third party tools.

    UPDATE: Due to what I suspect is high volume, you may see errors when you try to load it. Let the little birds warm up their servers some more and try later if you get an error.

  • Few things in marketing are binary

    During yesterday’s prep for my Critical Influence in Social Media webinar, one of my late additions to the deck was a discussion point that very few things in marketing are binary, even though we as marketers desperately wish they were. By this I mean binary in its literal state – 0 or 1, no or yes, deal won or lost. When have you influenced someone? It’s not a binary state by any measure – influence is far more analog, with a spectrum of different states of influence, each with different outcomes.

    Even something as simple as a deal won or lost isn’t binary. Certainly, you may say that a sales deal is lost at present, but things change. Contracts come up for renewal. Products don’t work as advertised. When that happens, your window of opportunity opens up again, and the “lost” deal is back on the table.

    Google Image Result for https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ip1G1ojoCNg/TZVQPZfYdXI/AAAAAAAAASU/3rX688K6om8/s400/MiracleMax.jpg

    Miracle Max: He probably owes you money huh? I’ll ask him.
    Inigo Montoya: He’s dead. He can’t talk.
    Miracle Max: Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there’s usually only one thing you can do.
    Inigo Montoya: What’s that?
    Miracle Max: Go through his clothes and look for loose change.

    What does this mean in practical terms? When you’re doing your marketing analysis and reporting, more things should be measured in terms of scores and progress towards goals rather than simple binary measures. When you’re analyzing lead quality, get rid of the idea of a single status of qualified or unqualified and look at scoring those leads more granularly, so that you can determine better how far along the spectrum of qualified or unqualified they actually are. Finally, be accepting of the fact that not everything can be measured cleanly and precisely. At the end of the day, we’re working with human beings – creatures who are deeply imprecise, highly unpredictable in many ways, and working with them is as much art as it is science.

  • Basic podcasting analytics

    I was recently asked on Twitter about what podcasting analytics you should pay attention to. Let’s look at a handful to see what’s important.

    First, podcasting is a medium, just as social media is a medium, just as television is a medium, just as radio is a medium. That means that it fulfills the function of attracting and retaining new audiences for you and your business (if you’re podcasting for business purposes and not just as a fun hobby). Fundamentally, we want to understand the answers to three questions about the audience:

    1. Who is in the audience?

    What does the audience look like? How many personas are in it? How large is the audience? One of the most effective ways to get this data (besides flat out asking them) is to use something like LinkedIn Groups or a Facebook Page, as that will give you basic demographic and professional data. That’s one of the reasons Marketing Over Coffee maintains an active LinkedIn Group.

    2. How engaged is the audience?

    If no one’s listening, why bother? Services like Libsyn can give you download data, which is helpful. Services like Stitcher and YouTube can give you insight into how far people listen or watch.

    Analytics - YouTube

    If you’re a sponsored show, as Marketing Over Coffee is, then we know based on this information that we need to deliver the paid ad in the first 25% of the show, when attention is highest.

    3. How valuable is the audience?

    This is the ultimate question. What does the audience do for you in exchange for the value you provide them? You won’t find this in your podcasting analytics. You’ll find this in your web analytics or your marketing automation system/CRM. How many people signed up for the mailing list? How many people filled out a lead form? How many people bought the book? How valuable is that audience in doing the things that matter to you?

    Measure your podcasting efforts along these three categories of metrics if you want to understand what the value of your podcast is. Oh, and subscribe to my podcast that I do with John Wall every week, Marketing Over Coffee.

  • What Guild Wars 2 Teaches Us About Rewarding Behavior

    Screen Shot 2013-05-30 at 6.23.34 AM.png

    At the behest of friend and fellow gamer someone, I’m trying out Guild Wars 2 (GW2), a game very similar to World of Warcraft. It’s got all the stock, standard tropes of an MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role playing game) with a couple of interesting twists. Unlike traditional MMOs that have defined roles such as tanks, healers, and damage dealers, everyone in GW2 can perform limited aspects of all three roles. Second, and relevant to the topic of this blog post, the game has been engineered to make you more social, rather than less.

    For example, in every other MMO, there are resource nodes that your character can harvest, such as ores, herbs, fish, etc. These nodes are typically one-time use, which means that whichever player gets to them first gets to enjoy the harvest, and if you’re second in line, you get nothing except frustration. The nodes in GW2 are duration-based: every player who gets to the node within the time that it’s available gets some goods. That radically changes how you perceive other players. They’re no longer competitors for goods. That in turn changes how we perceive those other players, not as enemies, but as either neutral or even helpful presences. When your goal as a multiplayer game is to increase social cohesion (people stay with games, social networks, etc. when their friends do), not penalizing people for being in the same vicinity as others is a crucial step.

    Another interesting feature is that every player has the ability to resurrect another fallen player, regardless of class or skill. You just click and wait for the other player to get on their feet, usually a 5-10 second wait with no cost or materials required. Players who do so are rewarded with a small amount of experience. As a result, it’s not uncommon to see players healing and helping each other out, even if they don’t know each other. It’s a sort of common courtesy in GW2, a social norm, and again, creates opportunities to have more interesting social interactions than in games where players can’t help each other on their feet.

    What’s important about GW2 compared to others in its genre isn’t its features. What’s important to us as marketers is that the developers have clearly put a lot of thought into rewarding the behaviors they want to encourage. One of their stated priorities is eliminating game mechanics that make us perceive other players as enemies and competitors rather than comrades and friends. The game does this marvelously, and it makes for a much more cooperative environment. This in turn makes in-game chat more pleasant and makes players behave more socially normal (closer to the real world) than other games I’ve experienced, because the game simply doesn’t have as many ways you can behave badly to others in it.

    Think carefully about the incentives you design and the behaviors they reward. For example, in sales, if individual commissions are the top priority, it’s not uncommon to see salespeople undermining each other, claiming leads that don’t belong to them, wrecking sales of coworkers for their own benefit. If group or team commissions are the top priority, it’s not uncommon to see salespeople helping each other out, contributing to each other, and working towards the best outcome that benefits them: the team’s success. Think about how you design the incentives in your marketing plan and in your business to get at the behaviors you want to encourage. It works in gaming, and it works in real life.

  • Marketing isn’t a single dish

    What the heck is American Food Salad?

    What makes a successful restaurant? Is it a single dish, a single signature food? Not if you want to stay in business, it’s not. There are countless reviews on sites like Yelp that effectively say, “This dish is good but the rest of the menu is inedible”. Five star reviews are not made of single dishes of excellence on a table full of failure. What makes a successful restaurant is a reputation for consistently serving reasonably good food, with reasonably good service, at reasonably good prices. Above all else, a successful restaurant has to do what it does consistently in order to be known for its offering. A great dish served once followed by endless tablefuls of mediocrity has never kept the doors open.

    Marketing needs to take a lesson from this. Right now, marketing is stuck in a campaign-centric view of the world. All of our focus is at the campaign level: an email blast, a social blitz, a television ad. These are single serving dishes, and while a brilliant campaign can give your numbers a brief boost, it’s not enough. As marketing evolves to be centered around people, your efforts as a marketer must transcend a campaign view of the world if you want longer term success. A single great email blast can’t make up ground for terrible SEO, inept social media strategy, and no clear brand message. A single TV ad can’t fix a broken sales process or a marketing funnel that’s leaking at every stage.

    The successful marketer today and in the near future will leave behind the singular focus on campaigns and re-center on the person we’re trying to impact. Are campaigns still important? Yes, in the way that every single dish you prepare at a restaurant is important (and one really bad one can damage your overall reputation) – but it’s that dish’s role in the larger view of the restaurant’s reputation that matters most. Marketing campaigns are still important as the tactical activities that make up your marketing strategy, but it’s the overall effect of your marketing on your target audience that matters most. Serve up great marketing consistently over a period of time and you’ll not only create short-term benefits, you’ll reap long-term loyal fans.

  • How to sell from LinkedIn network emails

    If you have any role in sales or marketing, chances are you’re always on the lookout for new opportunities to develop customers. One of the easiest ways to do so is to look for transitions, when roles change out. When someone takes a new job or leaves a job, there’s an impact on an organization. If your company provides services that fit those roles, then there’s an opportunity for you to help out.

    For example, if a CMO starts at a new company, there’s almost immediately a vendor review. That’s a time to knock politely on the door and ask to be helpful if you’re not one of the vendors of record, and a vital time to knock politely if you are the vendor of record who needs to defend the account. Conversely, when someone leaves, there may be an opportunity to provide additional levels of service or new service if the role is difficult to replace. If you’re at all good at the services you provide, you know your clients and what they need while they’re going through transitions.

    How would you find out about this sort of thing, if you wanted to capitalize on the opportunities? Simple: read the emails you get from LinkedIn. If you aren’t getting any right now, you can change that here:

    Email frequency | LinkedIn

    See the one called Network Updates? That’s the one you want to get. Here’s why:

    Congratulate Callen Fry, Mitch Fredricks, and 10 others - cspenn@gmail.com - Gmail

    You get all of the changes in positions in your network delivered to you on a silver platter (not literally). From there, it’s up to you how you choose to interact with people in your network experiencing changes, but I’d venture to say it’s a good chance to at least say hello, if not politely inquire about new business opportunities when and where appropriate. Very few other social networks will hand you business opportunities daily. Make the most of the ones that do!

  • When pricing is public, when pricing shouldn’t be public

    IMG_0967

    Ellen Butler asked:

    “Do you post your project, hourly, or starting rates on your website?”

    The answer depends on what pricing model you’re using. If what you’re selling is a commodity, then pricing can be public. Most people who are in service-based businesses are selling hours of their time, which they treat as a commodity, just like apples, iron, gold, Apple’s stock, rice, and corn. That pricing model also makes it easy for buyers to do apples-to-apples comparisons. John Doe’s pricing is 50 an hour, while Jane Doe’s pricing is40 an hour. If all you care about as a buyer is price, then the decision should be easy.

    If what you’re selling is not a commodity, then pricing can’t be public because there is no standardized pricing. What’s the price of surgery? Well, it depends on what you need to have done, which doctor you’re going to have do the work, what hospital you’re going to have the work done at, how urgent the need is, who your healthcare insurance provider is… you get the idea. Surgery isn’t a commodity (yet).

    What determines whether or not you are selling a commodity is customization. If what you do offers no significant benefits over what anyone else does – or if your buyers and customers don’t understand the difference between what you do and what others do – then you’re selling a commodity and you’re forced into a price war. If what you do is so unique and so customized that you’re a market of one, then you can price to what the market will bear. There’s a reason that Apple, when it releases a new product line, can price whatever the heck it wants – usually there are few to no competitors. Think back to when the first iPad came out. There was nothing else like it. Or the iPhone. Or the iPod. They were unique enough that they were their own markets for quite a while. Now, unless they continue to innovate, their spaces have become commoditized.

    If you want more details on pricing, I recommend this older post on setting consulting billing rates for some additional ideas.
