Session Preview: Marketing Apps – The Next Must-have Weapon in Your Conversion Arsenal with Mary D’Alatri-Ward

How marketers think online users behave vs real online behavior


We digital marketers have been through a lot in these last few years. We’ve had to cope with rapid changes in the socio-cultural and technological landscape: the increasing ordinary-ness of mobile and social, and the changing habits, whims, and values of an always-on, always-connected consumer.


And yet, our basic problem as marketers remains the same: How do we capture and keep the interest of our visitors?


The bad news is that there is massive content on the web and our user’s attention is very much limited. So we can safely say that we have the same problem; Only this time, the difficulty level has gone up a notch. Or even higher, given the content overload that our audience experiences daily on the web.


Enter marketing apps, which, according to advocates, cantransform your static content into a useful digital experience.” They can potentially help us cut through the clutter and noise of the gazillions of content produced every day. They can help our landing pages stand out in the sea of cookie-cutter pages on the web.


Hey, we can finally practice user-centered design by putting out content that our visitors actually find useful and delightful!


So how do you get started?
