Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Marketing Keynotes, Mobile,Digital Consumer

Secret of customer engagement.  "Change how you communicate. Phone and email is a waste of time if you want to build trust and be part of the customer's "family". Text really matters - keep really close, share personally, be a friend, become a trusted confidant and advisor, and you are already most of the way to closing a major deal, over competitors who have only an email relationship."  

One in three people in the UK only use phone calls to speak to their parents.  They are most likely to send texts to partners and WhatsApp messages to friends.  Most people find social media more convenient than talking on the phone, yet most companies are lagging far behind in how they communicate to customers and their teams.

Why so many marketing directors hate marketing - join the revolution

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Marketing Keynotes, Mobile,Digital Consumer

Most marketing directors find other people's marketing messages irritating, whether TV ads, direct mail campaigns, SMS marketing, outbound call-centre marketing, billboards, press ads, mobile marketing. Consumers are increasingly fed up too. Get ready for the biggest shifts in marketing strategy for a generation - forced on the industry by the ever-growing influence of social networks, coupled with online search, impatient and intolerant consumers...and by massive overload with general advertising noise. Getting noticed means more than shouting louder. The future is about personal relevance, information and revelation as you become a consumer guide along their journey of life. It means a radical rethink about command and control, blockbuster campaigns.

Future of call-centres - funny video - how to improve customer experience

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Marketing Keynotes, Mobile,Digital Consumer

Future of call-centres and call-centre nightmares - how to lose customers and sales. OK so here it is - I was going to keep this "funny" animation video away from my main website but seeing it has had great reviews and over 30,000 YouTube views I decided to let you all see it. Sadly such call centre horrors are carried out every day by most multinationals. Every poll I do at conferences I speak at shows the same thing:  most business leaders hate getting through to automated call-centres. They find it annoying to have to press buttons when they want personal customer service.  Yet the very same people work in companies which force their own customers to use exactly the same systems.  So deliberately do things which we know make customers really annoyed. We can and must do better.  To make matters worse, most call-centre agents are blind to customer needs because of last-century technology....

Life is too short to sell things you don't believe in - secret of powerful marketing campaigns

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Future Marketing Keynotes, Mobile,Digital Consumer

Believe in what you sell and others will too. I often say this: Life’s too short to sell things you don’t believe in. Slick campaigns attract attention and boost sales, but selling as a career is hardly a mission in life unless you are convinced of the value of what you are promoting. Integrity matters when you sell: only sell what you would sell to your own friends or family. How to apply this to more powerful marketing, selling, slogans, better campaigns.
