Google Analytics data collected on behalf of Peg and Kris, LLC for the company’s website domain, www.pegandkris.com, suggests that the company needs to change its current online marketing plan (Google Analytics, 2016). Weaknesses revealed by the data included overall low sales conversions, insufficient sales from social media and email campaign groups, and an usually high amount of sales conversions occurring on a desktop computer despite a larger number of visitors from mobile devices. Strengths included a sufficient number of visitors to the website and decent purchasing behavior from return customers (Google Analytics, 2016). While the data shows that Peg and Kris, LLC has been successful in drawing both new and returning customers to the …show more content…
Kristy May, CEO, states that the new strategy should consist of several key components (K. May, personal communication, November 12, 2016). First, the company should continue to work very hard on strengthening its branding through frequency (Michalowicz, 2012). Second, Peg and Kris, LLC needs to strengthen its social media campaign to draw in new customers (Rosario, Sotgiu, De Valck, & Bijmolt, 2016). Third, the company could benefit from partnering with other brands, bloggers, and affiliates (Rosario, Sotgiu, De Valck, & Bijmolt, 2016). Lastly, while not directly related, research suggests that the company will see an improvement in web sales conversions with optimization of its mobile site (Oakley & Daudert, …show more content…
May, personal communication, November 12, 2016). Data revealed that the dollars being spent on paid search generated zero dollars in sales (Google Analytics, 2016). Therefore, it is proposed that the company stop its current campaign, and reconsider a more effective paid advertising campaign in the near future (K. May, personal communication, November 12, 2016). As a replacement for these dollars, the company will consider other forms of online advertising such as banners and ads that may generate more activity from the specific target audience of the brand (Dinner, Van Heerde, & Neslin,
Joseph Turow’s The Daily You shows us the in depth look of behind the scenes of the advertising industry and its impact on individuals in the consumer society we live in. Every time you click a link, fill out a form or visit a website, advertisers are working to collect personal information about you, says Joseph Turow, a professor at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. Then they target ads to you based on that information they collected. This tracking is ubiquitous across the Internet, from search engines to online retailers and even greeting card companies.
The company can improve its channel strategy to enhance its current performance in one way. The company’s website is too reliant in the physical stores. The website has photos of the physical store ostensibly to help customers to connect with it. This idea seems well founded. However, the target market for any company that operates an online shopping system is not local. It transcends geographical boundaries. The company needs to consider how it can make the online shopping experience authentic and complete for customers who may never visit any of its physical stores. A website makes a company a global player. In this regard, the company needs to expand its channel strategy to take into account an expanded potential market. This shift in strategy will increase the sales the company makes.
...vive, profit, and grow. Marketing contributes to all of these categories. A companywide strategy designed to optimize profitability within Titleist comes from their media outlets.

Avinash Kaushik in his blog proposed the 10/90 rule. [1] According to him, many large companies that have invested in web analytics tools still struggle to make any meaningful business decisions. Apparently, there is a no dearth of data that is collected via these web analytics tools for these companies. However, the caveat here is that there is no real useful information that is being analyzed from these data. In other words, there are not sufficient people with expertise in these areas working on these web analytics tools for these companies to make any meaningful suggestions from the data for the companies to implement and in return increase their profits or whatever they are trying to achieve/gain. The 10/90 rule suggests that for every $10 invested on web analytics tools, $90 should be invested on web analysts by the company to be able to expect positive results on their investment on web analytics tools. Primarily, the data collected from such web analytics tools is useless unless an expert is analyzing that data. It is the web analyst that is critical for the success from the ...

A behavioral advertisement company, Criteo, defended their practice by claiming that less than twenty percent of people are willing to pay for online news. This is because news is offered free online on countless other websites. This fact is unrelated to why “Julie” did not buy those “cute” Zappos shoes. Unless she found them cheaper elsewhere in which case the sales loss was from poor product prices and not poor product advertising.
They did not create a proper advertising campaign prior to the launch of the product, and are trying to form it now to increase customer awareness of the product.
...each customer can be measured by the acquired business contracts. The website and its success can be evaluated by the technical support team on how often it is used and most importantly by asking customers seeking information how effective the information provided on website is in regards to their company’s interest. Performing more research and updating the website to tailor it to a company’s interest, would ensure better delivery of our message.

Schlosser, Sharon Shavitt, and Alaina Kanfer, who are experts in the areas of Marketing and eCommerce, Advertising, and Information Technology respectively, found that 63% of those surveyed either disliked or felt neutral about online advertising. (Schlosser) This explains that a large majority of internet users generally dislike online advertisements. There are several valid reasons behind this. One of these reasons is that users view the ads as annoying or intrusive to their internet use. They believe that the advertisements are distracting from the overall content of the webpage. According to a study conducted by Scot McCoy, who is an expert in the field of Management Information Systems, internet users are much less likely to re-visit a website which has advertisements as opposed to a similar site which does not include advertisements. (McCoy) In other words, if a user is able to find a similar site which does not include advertisements, they are much more likely to use and view that site as opposed to one which includes advertisements. However, a downfall of these studies is the fact of how out of date they
