ONEcount, the original Customer Data Platform, today announced two strategic partnerships that will empower its customers to maximize the value of their investments in the service.
With these alliances, customers will be able to deploy more targeted audience marketing campaigns, streamline controlled circulation efforts, and increase advertising revenue by training their sales teams to effectively use data that the platform provides.
“We provide media companies and brands a wealth of capabilities never before seen in a single, integrated platform,” said ONEcount President Joanne Persico. “But not every company has the resources in-house to identify opportunities, build opportunistic programs, and effectively train their sales teams. These new partnerships will immediately address those problems.” The partnerships announced today are: the Academy of Digital Media (a Laredo Group company), Marketing Scientist Pamela Dunaway, and Sylvia Sierra Consulting Services.
Digital Sales Enablement Training
Data and analytics are becoming key ingredients to defining, building and targeting audiences within a media companies’ ecosystem. Many struggle to train their sales teams in how to effectively use data assets to close more deals and develop premium campaigns.
The Academy of Digital Media, the leading digital media sales and buying training company, is launching its latest course, Using Data to Empower Sales: The New Currency that Drives Media Transactions this month. The program offers in-person classes, on-demand webinars, and private training courses focused on helping sales teams maximize revenue using the types of data insights that ONEcount provides.
Customers who would like a custom training program focusing on their specific market and their specific implementation can benefit from a customized program, either on-site or delivered via webinar.
Leslie Laredo, the founder of Academy of Digital Media has been an innovator in interactive media since 1983. She has been instrumental in dramatically improving the skills of over 110,000 sales media professionals as the industry transitions from print to today’s mixed-media marketplace.
“Media itself has changed from a static group of well-understood products to a rapidly changing array of increasingly complex products, said Laredo. “Media sales professionals need to understand and embrace these new sellable data-driven assets to build true people-based targeting packages that better serves the needs of the advertiser. Academy training is the fastest way to learn how to do that most effectively.”
Marketing Science
Companies deploying the ONEcount platform can use its Big Data technologies to generate new revenue from advertising and audience marketing. Whether you’re trying to maximize the life-time value of a subscriber or trying to find the most profitable segment for your advertisers, ONEcount enables companies to maximize the value of their audiences through the field of Marketing Science.
Pamela Dunaway, a pioneer in the field of Marketing Science, is partnering with ONEcount to specifically help companies understand the data and develop marketing and revenue strategies that maximize the value of each individual subscriber.
Working with ONEcount, Dunaway and her team will focus on implementation planning, opportunity analysis, training and management guidance. The focus on the audience engagement uses the unique strengths of the brand to maximize the revenue from each customer experience that the platform provides.
“Behavioral targeting based on customer interactions is a win for consumer marketing, advertising sales and the customer/prospect by improving ROI while simultaneously improving customer experience with your brand,” said Dunaway. “The shotgun approach of the past is a relic, and customers expect a better, more targeted experience. Customers respond and are loyal to brands they feel hear and address their specific needs and desires.”
Dunaway was previously Chief Marketing Officer at the Weider History Group of consumer publications, where she was responsible for 85 percent of corporate revenue generation. She improved subscription profitability by 102 percent by using a behavioral scoring algorithm to target prospects with the right message and offer at the right time.
