Emerging Technologies: How Direct Marketers Can Capitalize on Innovations

October 18th, 2005

Panel Moderated by Stephan Spencer

Is something missing in your marketing mix? New channels are opening doors to the increasingly, tech-savvy consumer. RSS feeds and alerts, blogging, mobile communications and “mapping and monitoring” online conversations are among the newest marketing tools available.

  • Understanding these new channels
  • Leveraging them for customer retention and acquisition
  • Building rapport with bloggers, and promote your products and company in the blogosphere
  • Personalizing the content in the RSS Feed to each subscriber
  • Tracking readership and response
  • Advertising on blogs and within RSS feeds
  • Podcasting (think: on-demand Internet pirate radio)
  • Distribution channels (RSS search engines, directories, Web-based aggregators, RSS news reader software)
  • Not just for bloggers and news sites — e-tailers embrace RSS as a channel
