  • Why your PPC advertising may be faltering

    Slackershot - Spare Change

    I recently had an interesting conversation with the manager of an ad network’s media buyer section. They revealed an interesting insider tip that I thought was worth sharing: most self-serve pay-per-click (PPC) networks are remnant inventory networks, from LinkedIn to Google Adwords to Facebook Ads, etc.

    What does that mean?

    Remnant inventory is spare inventory, spare ad slots that are unfilled. If you look at any of the major ad networks, there are generally two options available, a self-serve PPC solution and a really expensive media buy solution. The self-serve is touted as best for small businesses, and the media buy is for the big wallet crowd.

    It should come as no surprise, then, that the media buy crowd that can pony up for a seat at the big table gets preferential ad slot times and placements. If you buy into these media solution packages, the starting price of admission is anywhere from 10,000 to25,000 per month, and you get the best seats in the house for your ads.

    The people who can’t pony up for a seat at the big table can buy into seats at the little table, where we can pay per click in a self-serve environment. The catch is this: we get whatever’s left over after the big players have expended their budgets. If you’re competing for a highly-valued audience or for highly-valued keywords and you’re in the PPC self-serve market, you’re getting silently squeezed out. Your ad for “best Christmas toys” or “best B2B service” will never be seen at prime time; chances are it’ll show at the Sunday at 3 AM slot.

    The advice the manager gave? PPC self-serve works best in the first quarter of the year. Each quarter after that gets progressively more difficult as companies, eager to meet their marketing and sales targets, pour more and more money into the advertising networks. By the time the holidays roll around in the fourth quarter, there’s almost no remnant inventory left because big companies are desperate to hit their targets and are buying everything in sight. What little inventory might be possible is nearly worthless, barely converting.

    So what do you do if you don’t have 100 Benjamins to lay down on the table every month? Look for advertising solutions that are much more finely targeted and less competed-for. I will guarantee you that if you have a product or service that has any level of mainstream appeal at all, there is a discussion forum, mailing list, podcast, or other network that has a small section of your buyers and is eager for any advertising dollars at all. Take a few hours to Google for them, find them, silently lurk and see if it’s a good fit for your audience, and then make your bid. You’ll exhaust that smaller audience quickly, but you’ll spend a lot less than you will anywhere on the big networks.

  • Sunset what doesn’t work

    At the end of every month, as an affiliate marketer, I get lots of reports. Some of them come with money attached, which I enjoy, and some do not:

    Avangate Affiliate Sales Report 2012-07-31 (Affiliate ID: 32478) - cspenn@gmail.com - Gmail

    This program is obviously going away for me. It’s not performing, and thus it has to go, because that space can be used for something else.

    Here’s a simple (but not easy) question to ask yourself: how much stuff do you have laying around in your own marketing programs that’s not performing? Why haven’t you sunset it, let it go into graceful retirement?

    It’s harder than you think. Sometimes it’s a business partner that’s also a friend. Sometimes it’s a program that used to work well. But right now, in this day and age of rapid responsiveness and even more rapidly changing conditions, we can ill afford to hold onto things that aren’t working.

    It takes courage to let go, but the alternative is to hold on to iron weights while sinking.

  • On stories and marketing

    photo

    At today’s Eduweb conference, I had the pleasure of sitting in on Julie Campbell’s Storytelling session. Julie brought lots of things to think about and questions to ask. A few simple takeaways:

    Your child never asks at bedtime to tell them about a press release. They do ask you to tell them a story. How would you make your story compelling to a 9 year old?

    Find your “save the cat” moments. In the movie The Incredibles, a diversion by the hero, Mr. Incredible, to save a cat in the midst of a crisis reveals a lot more about his character than the main story plot in a very compact way. As you work on finding your story, look for “save the cat” moments of your own that appear at first to be setbacks but highlight the best parts of your overall story and brand.

    You can and should always tell the truth in your stories. Even if the truth is ugly, you can improve your ability to tell a story about it skillfully.

    Your customer must be your advisor. If you’re marketing to students, you’d better have a student on your advisory board or marketing team. If you’re marketing to 50 year old professionals, you’d better have them on your team in some capacity or you’re going to create and tell stories that don’t resonate.

    A terrific session with lots of additional takeaways and reading lists. After I’ve bought and read all the recommended books, I’ll have a list of which ones really resonated. Thanks to Julie Campbell for a thought provoking talk.

  • What the birds can teach you about marketing

    A brief thought as I set up at the Eduweb conference for this week.

    IMG_1940

    These birds were sitting outside of the seating area at the local coffee and pastry shop. They were quite successful in their “marketing” and “conversion”, getting lots of food from amused restaurant patrons.

    The birds know what far too many marketers don’t: go where the opportunities are. Just because a place is busy doesn’t mean it has opportunities for you. The road right next to the restaurant has plenty of traffic and is plenty busy, but there’s no food there. The store next to the restaurant has no traffic and is completely safe, but there’s no food either.

    Opportunity isn’t just traffic. It isn’t just where the crowd is. It’s where the crowd is that wants to do business with you. Facebook has lots and lots of people. The crowd is very clearly there, like sitting in the middle of a 10 lane highway. It may not necessarily be where your opportunities are.

    The birds follow each other. As one finds food, it communicates with a happy chirp to the others who come and eat as well. Look at your fellow marketers in your industry and vertical, or of similarly sized companies. Where are they finding opportunity? Where’s the crowd that has the food? It may not be the biggest, most popular places. In fact, it might be the relatively quiet places (like discussion forums or other websites) next to the big highway that have the best choices for you.

  • Amazon and the future of retail

    On today’s Marketing Over Coffee, we debated a bit about Amazon and how retailers can stop “showrooming”, the practice of having customers come into real life stores, examine physical goods, and then check the price on Amazon and buy it there.

    That’s the tip of the iceberg, and the retail Titanic is headed straight for it, full steam ahead. Here’s why. Amazon recently announced openings of new distribution centers, some in major metropolitan areas, in exchange for collecting sales tax in those regions on behalf of the government. Why? Slate argues that it’s to provide same-day delivery of goods in high-demand areas.

    That alone should make retailers deeply worried. After all, if I can stop by my local big box electronics store and know that I can take delivery to my house from Amazon in 4 hours, the incentive to buy and lug anything home goes down. Retailers who are celebrating Amazon’s surrender on the sales tax war, long perceived as a competitive advantage, may be celebrating Amazon eating more of their lunch.

    Here’s the even bigger picture. Amazon has more data and access to more data than any retailer, period. They know exactly what’s popular, where it’s popular, and when. Amazon is likely aware that showrooming is somewhat self-destructive – once it pushes stores like big box electronics chains out of business, consumers will have fewer places to see and feel the items they want to purchase. The logical conclusion, then, is an Amazon showroom.

    Think of the power that a physical showroom might have. Amazon’s datacenters can tell each showroom which 100 products to feature in it that provide the best balance of profit, popularity, and volume, while the local distribution center ships the goods to your house in 4 hours, or you can pick them up at the showroom’s Amazon delivery locker. You walk into the showroom with your mobile phone, try out the featured goods in person, scan the barcode for the items you want, pay using your existing Amazon account, and go on with your day, knowing your purchases will be on your doorstep before the next meal. (or you could wait in the showroom’s coffee shop and see the top 100 Kindle bestsellers of the hour and buy one while you have that coffee, I suppose)

    What can the average retailer do to combat this? If you’re a big box chain, you’re pretty much hosed. You have been ever since the Amazon price-check app. Remember the time-honored adage:

    Amazon and the future of retail 1

    Amazon has already nailed cheap with the price check app. They’re in the process of wiping out the fast advantage of the physical retailer with real-time distribution. That leaves your only true competitive advantage of good. You’ve got to provide a customer experience that a highly impersonal series of digital transactions can’t provide. Before you scoff that real people will always want a personal connection, recall that a highly-tuned, nearly flawless digital experience (Amazon) is routinely beating the pants off flawed, broken real-world customer experiences (big box electronics stores) already.

    Go shop in some of the retail world’s successes. The Apple Store. Tiffany’s. The American Girl doll store. Compare and contrast the end-to-end experiences you have in those retail locations with the experiences you have in any of the big box retailers, and you will understand what bar you have to reach in order to survive the Amazon onslaught. The writing is on the wall.

  • Doing the hard work

    One of the interesting quirks about professions in World of Warcraft is that to be able to craft all of the items in your profession, you either have to have or know someone with other professions. For example, virtually every tailor is going to learn how to make the Netherweave Robe. It’s a straightforward crafted item requiring only cloth and thread.

    Pattern: Netherweave Robe - Item - World of Warcraft

    By comparison, the Brightcloth Robe requires both cloth and gold bars to make (it’s REALLY bright). The average tailor isn’t also a miner, which means that in order to make this robe, you either have to know a miner who can go out and mine some gold, then smelt it into bars, or you have to buy it in the in-game auction house at prices high enough that the robe isn’t profitable to make.

    Pattern: Brightcloth Robe - Item - World of Warcraft

    As a result, there are a lot of people selling (and competing with each other to sell) Netherweave Robes each day:

    Netherweave Robe - US Earthen Ring Alliance - The Undermine Journal

    Meanwhile, there’s usually only one or two Brightcloth robes available for sale:

    Brightcloth Robe - US Earthen Ring Alliance - The Undermine Journal

    The more complicated the recipe, the less likely it is the average person is going to make it and sell it. For example, here’s the Earthen Silk Belt, which requires 4 different professions to make (leather working, mining, blacksmithing, tailoring):

    Earthen Silk Belt - US Earthen Ring Alliance - The Undermine Journal

    There’s an obvious market opportunity there.

    What does this have to do with your marketing or business?

    Think about all of the things everyone has access to, the easy stuff.

    Think of all of the things in marketing that are hard.

    Everyone and their cousin is using Facebook. Very few people (relatively speaking) are using Facebook’s API.

    Everyone’s using Twitter. Very few people are taking Twitter data and washing them through statistical analysis programs.

    Everyone’s doing email marketing (in many cases, very poorly). Very few people are optimizing their programs with A/B testing (less than 1% in many cases).

    What are the things that are hard to do? Does the hard work suck? Yes. Logging into 4 different characters to access 4 different professions sucks. It’s much simpler and easier to log into one character and do the easy stuff, but that’s not where the opportunity is. Do the hard work, because human nature indicates pretty clearly that most people won’t, and opportunities are nearly boundless in that space.

  • The popup is back! (again)

    On June 30th, I made the announcement that with the new site design, I’d be testing to see how mailing list subscriptions went with the subscription form built into the page rather than in an annoying popup. As you can probably guess by the title of this post, it didn’t go well. How not well? Take a look at my mailing list statistics using 7, 14, 28, and 90 day moving averages:

    Microsoft Excel

    Subscriptions didn’t just go down. They fell off a cliff, creating a perfect inversion of negative momentum. As a marketing professional, this is your worst case scenario, where your metrics indicate that something has gone horribly wrong.

    So without further ado… the popup is indeed back. This time, it’s in a slightly different form. I’m testing a new plugin that only shows it once you hit the bottom of a post or after 60 seconds, so there should be plenty of room for people to read and get the content they came for without immediately having something in their faces. In another month or so, I’ll let you know how the analytics go with the new system. For longtime readers, once you see it today (everyone will, since it’s a new plugin), you won’t see it again for 90 days, assuming the software behaves.

  • Advanced web analytics: the MACD

    Fair warning: today’s post requires you to be competent with spreadsheets.

    In our previous discussion of moving averages, we talked about how moving averages tell us when our daily and weekly web analytics numbers fall below our 4 and 13 week moving averages, we need to hit the gas. What if there were a way to determine precisely when it’s time to really hit the gas, when it’s time to sound the alarms?

    Fortunately, there is. In the world of technical investment analysis, there’s an indicator called the MACD, the moving average convergence/divergence number. It’s the difference between two moving averages. The MACD was created by an investor named Gerald Appel in the 1970s as a way of telling not only when a stock was changing direction, but how quickly. Today, we’re going to move the MACD into web analytics.

    Let’s start with some review. Here’s a chart of a website using exported weekly Google Analytics data, including its 4 and 13 week moving averages. Is it healthy?

    Microsoft Excel

    If you answered yes, you’d be generally correct. The blue line of weekly visits is generally above the red line, which is the 4 week moving average, which in turn is generally above the green line, the 13 week moving average. By itself, this chart contains enough information to know whether your site is doing well or poorly.

    What this chart doesn’t show is how well or poorly. For that, let’s first turn to just the 4 and 13 week moving averages. Remember that the 4 week moving average effectively summarizes the last month – how well your site has done over the month. The 13 week moving average effectively summarizes a quarter. What we want to look for are the points where the 4 week average dips below the 13 week average, because that alerts us that there is a rough patch, where growth flagged:

    Microsoft Excel

    In this chart, there are 4 periods where growth clearly flagged. If we go back to our data and in our spreadsheet, we calculate 4WMA – 13WMA, we get a number that indicates how much the 4 week average is above or below the 13 week average.

    Microsoft Excel

    The MACD is a simple number to interpret: in an ideal situation, you always want it to be above zero. If your MACD is negative, your website is in trouble.

    Let’s visualize this by charting out the MACD with a simple line graph.

    Microsoft Excel

    See those areas in the red boxes? Those are areas where growth was negative, where the website simply wasn’t doing well. Look at week 67, the far-most right week and the fourth red box. We can see that we’re about to enter a period of negative growth. Sound red alert! This is the warning indicator we’re looking for, the sign that we need to hit the gas really hard to avoid dropping below zero if we can. This is where you break out your various emergency response toolkits, like PPC advertising, email marketing, and anything else you’ve got that will drive attention.

    Why is it so important to hit the gas really hard at those critical times? Look at the previous red boxes. Some of them stretch 8-11 weeks – that’s nearly a full quarter of the calendar year. Like an economy or a stock, your website’s traffic has momentum, and negative momentum is just as hard to recover from as a downward declining stock. Reverse the momentum before your MACD goes negative and growth won’t suffer. Let it go negative for 8-11 weeks and you’re going to have a bad month or a bad quarter.

    The MACD is an elegantly simple number to keep an eye on. Keep it above zero, and your website audience is growing. Let it fall below zero, and your website audience is shrinking. Since everything else in digital marketing is contingent on that audience, it’s vital to keep your audience growing. Try applying the MACD calculation to your Google Analytics data and see how your website is doing!

  • Use Google Webmaster Tools Latest Links to diagnose content strategy

    Google’s Matt Cutts announced just yesterday that webmasters can now download their newest inbound links by date in their free analysis tool, Google Webmaster Tools (GWT). If you’re running a website and not using GWT, I’ll offer these strong words: you’re probably doing it wrong. In addition to providing a list of who’s linking to you, it also tells you when things are broken around your site, so strongly consider implementing it soon.

    When you log into GWT, you get Google’s typically minimalist interface. Find your way to the Traffic section, then Links to Your Site, then hit the Download Latest Data button:

    Webmaster Tools - Links to Your Site - https://www.christopherspenn.com/

    Congratulations! You’ve got link data. You can now open the resulting spreadsheet either in Google Docs format or a CSV if you want to examine your links offline. What do you get when you look inside? A really useful list of places that you’re getting links from, by date:

    Microsoft Excel

    You can then go back to each of those links and have a look around, maybe leave a comment, or at least check out the people linking to you. Useful, right?

    But wait, there’s more! /billymays

    If you’ve read my post on moving averages, then you know what’s coming next. Take those dates, subtotal their counts, and make 7, 14, and 30 day moving averages. Remember what a link is in Google’s parlance: it’s a vote for your site. It’s a vote for your content being worth sharing. Now you can start to track the trends in this kind of voting:

    Microsoft Excel

    My “voting” record for this quarter is on the rise – the blue line (7 day) is consistently above the red, which is consistently above the green. Things are moving in the right direction, and my content is doing well in terms of the number of people linking to it. Conversely, if the lines were in reverse order headed downwards, my site would be in trouble and it’d be a good indicator that my content was unappealing, not worth linking to.

    Try this set of techniques out and see what it says about who’s linking to your site!
