Real-time conversations turn leads into customers

Conversational Marketing is the definitive guide to generating better leads and closing more sales. Traditional sales and marketing methods have failed to keep pace with the way modern, internet-savvy consumers purchase goods and services. Modern messaging apps, which allow for real-time conversations and instant feedback, have transformed the way we interact in our personal and professional lives, yet most businesses still rely on 20th century technology to communicate with 21st century customers. Online forms, email inquiries, and follow-up sales calls don’t provide the immediacy that modern consumers expect. Conversational marketing and sales are part of a new methodology centered around real-time, one-on-one conversations with customers via chatbots and messaging. By allowing your business to communicate with customers in real time—when it’s most convenient for them—conversational marketing improves the customer experience, generates more leads, and helps you convert more leads into customers.Conversational Marketing pioneers David Cancel and Dave Gerhardt explain how to:

Merge inbound and outbound tactics into a more productive dialog with customers Integrate conversational marketing techniques into your existing sales and marketing workflow Face-to-face meetings, phone calls, and email exchanges remain important to customer relations, but adding a layer of immediate, individual conversation drives the customer experience—and sales—sky-high.

Kernaufgabe des Werbe- oder Kommunikationsberaters in Unternehmen ist die strategische Planung von Kommunikationsaktivitäten, also die inhaltliche Ausarbeitung von Werbe- oder Kommunikationskonzepten. Gleiches gilt für Kontakter oder Strategic Planner bei Agenturen oder für Consultants. Um diese Aufgabe professionell zu erfüllen, muss er/sie Geschäftsstrategien analysieren, Elemente aus der Marketingtheorie praxisgerecht übertragen und daraus stimmige Entscheidungen zur Kommunikation ableiten. Einen praxisbewährten Ansatz, ein «Konzept für Konzepte», das auch Neuromarketing, Social Media und die Web-basierte Kommunikationsforschung berücksichtigt, präsentiert dieses Buch.<br> <br> Der Autor überwindet dabei die theoretische Darstellung reiner Lehrbücher und liefert viele Tipps, Beispiele und Checklisten, die den Anwender bis zur finalen Umsetzung seines Konzepts unterstützen. Er vermittelt das notwendige Wissen, mit dem sich Umsetzungsvorschläge konstruktiv-kritisch bewerten lassen, und hilft damit, die meist eher subjektive Beurteilung von Kreativität zu objektivieren und zu professionalisieren.<br> <br> Das Buch bietet viele neue, farbige Werbebeispiele, wieder versehen mit Kommentaren und Fragen, die zum Nach- und Weiterdenken über Absichten, Umsetzungsqualitäten und finale Wirkungen führen. Erweitert wurde es unter anderem zu den Themen Kommunikations-Controlling und Benchmarking, Elektronische Kommunikation und Mobile Communications sowie zu Messen und Events.

Many people see a weak association between marketing and sustainable development and even consider them as two incompatible fields. However, marketing benefits from an extremely powerful position to encourage transformations at the production level and to guide consumers towards responsible behaviors. From its inception, marketing has been positioned as a support for the relationship between the company and its customers, with the quest for well-being set in the very foundations of the discipline. <br /><br />In a context that is marked by crises and much skepticism, marketing today should, more than ever, prove that it acts in good faith. This book offers practitioners, public authorities, professors and students illustrations that demonstrate that the dissemination of sustainable practices is indeed a marketing issue. It argues that it is particularly important not only to overcome the divide between the concepts of marketing and sustainability, but also to use marketing tools and frameworks to support sustainable development and strengthen the green market.
