What is cross-media? A Cross-Media campaign is one that connects one medium to another. • Example: Adding a personalized URL on a direct mail piece connects the printed piece to the internet. • Recipients are marketed to using one channel, i.e. direct mail, email, mass media, and are given the option to respond using another channel (internet/landing page). • Various technologies such as PURLs, GURLs, QR codes, IMBs are integrated into the message to enable personalization, data capture, and tracking. • The concurrent communications reinforce each other and are funneled into a single data collection point (the landing page). • Response data is collected in real-time and displayed via an online reporting dashboard 24/7. This provides measurability and a quantifiable ROI.
One dimensional is limiting • One dimensional marketing misses a large percentage of prospects that otherwise might respond to a campaign. • We need to “connect” with each person utilizing their preferred marketing method • InfoTrends reports that leading marketers today are using 3, 4, or 5 touches per campaign.
Why connect to the web? 66% of consumers responding to an offline advertisement visited the web site of the company advertised or a search engine to learn more, while only 14% called a phone number from the advertisement, the survey says. Source: Jupiter Research
