Measuring digital marketing for success

February 17, 2015

If set up in the correctly with tracking in place, every aspect of digital marketing can be measured and tracked, analysed and reviewed so you can make real time adjustments to your digital marketing campaign and budgets.

Tracking software such as Google Analytics is a powerful tool to measure and track everything about visitors to your website which deliver insights so you can create meaningful campaigns that resonate with your audience.

Some of the areas you can track include:

  • Demographic information such as age, sex and geographic location
  • What else your website visitors are interested in (based on their other website visits) such as  employment, real estate, movies and music
  • And then what visitors are doing when they come to your website – where they come from, what pages they are visiting, how long they are on your website and what they are doing next.

With such a wealth of information available, clever marketers and businesses can create online and offline campaigns which will appeal more closely with their target audience. For example, if your highest value customers are female who like movies, creating campaigns that align with movie themes or incentivising purchases with movie tickets would most likely result in higher value purchases.

This is why monitoring more than just website traffic and visits is important. There is so much you can track; however, beware the sheer volumes of information. The real value in the numbers and graphics is what it means for your marketing; how it can help you get closer to your customers.

What is paid, earned, shared and owned media?

By Erica Williams • February 8, 2023
Media is complex. Much more than it used to be. Since the dawn of the internet and rise of social media, the number of media options has exploded. For a marketing manager, they are like pieces of a puzzle, interconnecting and working together. So, how does a marketing manager make the pieces form a nice, big, beautiful picture, to successfully stand out not only amongst the competition but above the vast array of media noise? American digital marketing expert, Gini Dietrich, identified four types of media: Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned. She called it the PESO model . Here we look at the four types of media. We describe and analyse each one and discuss how they all fit together.

Icon celebrates 20 years in business

By Joe Papadatos • February 5, 2023
When we launched in 2003, the trend in agencies was to provide a specialist service, like creative or media buying. But we saw the opportunity to offer full-service marketing to our clients, taking the pain away from managing multiple agencies with multiple processes. We’ve chosen to continue to base ourselves in the Macarthur region, moving to Campbelltown in our current office nearly six years ago.  This has enabled us to build strong working relationships with many companies in our region including property developers, builders, manufacturers, local Councils, venues, and many more. We’ve also worked with loads of companies outside the region which is becoming so much easier with the aid of technology. We’re not just suppliers, but genuine business partners. I’d like to thank the many clients I’ve worked alongside in the past 20 years and look forward to continuing many of those relationships.
