Ecommerce Club Working Lunch: Tribes of Behaviour and Ecommerce Interaction: A Single Customer View
After the great success of last month's Ecommerce Club inaugural event, we are proud to announce the second Ecommerce Club Working Lunch: Tribes of Behaviour, kindly hosted by Oban Digital and supported by Summit.
When it comes to online behaviour what insights do you need to make and inform digital strategy? It’s always assumed that the consumer’s behaviour is tied to the cultural roots of their home market. But are there similarities or differences in a culture of a brand’s audience? In this session Oban looks at how a consumer’s cultural identity could be formed of a brand’s culture, as well as external and internal factors. We look at a range of areas including: segmentation, market behaviours and personalisation.
Date: Wednesday 15th April Venue: Kettner's Soho, 29 Romilly Street, Soho, London, W1D 5HP Timings: 12.30pm to 3pm Guests Includes: Oasis, Argos, The Trainline, Eurostar, Made.com

We are also organising our first half day event Ecommerce Interaction: A Single Customer View. Understanding your customers gives you a clear and accurate view of their behaviour, wants and needs across multiple channels. In the world of big data, automated marketing and omnichannel the single customer view comes into play. By gaining a Single Customer View you can win new customers and delight current ones with excellent service provided by you. But remember whilst the Single Customer View provides a vital insight what really matters is what you do with this insight. Today experts will give you great advice and hints on how to achieve all your goals and set you on the right route to success, tasking you with deciding on actionable outcomes with your peers.

Facebook has changed its community standards to now include a separate section on "dangerous organisations" and gives more details about what types of nudity they will allow to be posted to the site. The new guidelines will replace the old ones on the website and will be sent to users who complain about other users posts. They now make it clear that not only do they not allow terrorist organisations or their members within the Facebook community, but they also don't permit praise or support for terror groups or their acts or their leaders, which wasn't something that was detailed before.
Are you getting lost in the Digital Skills Gap?
We are living in a digitally driven business world - where it is considered unacceptable (and almost suicidal) to fall behind with digital trends and technologies. As Richard Branson recently highlighted, UK businesses will suffer if they do not see the value of the ‘digital know-how’.
We are living in a digitally driven business world - where it is considered unacceptable (and almost suicidal) to fall behind with digital trends and technologies. As Richard Branson recently highlighted, UK businesses will suffer if they do not see the value of the ‘digital know-how’. Even if you do recognise the true value of digital in this always-on age, it’s not always easy to keep up with the rapid changes across the industry. With a lot of discussion in the press and wider business community about the current ‘digital skills gap’, surely it’s time to tackle this issue head on? The Digital Marketing Show Mid Term has been created to address this growing digital dilemma. Taking place on the 13th May 2015 at the Institute of Education, London, the Digital Marketing Show Mid Term will deliver creative, current and expert advice and information to ensure you can continue to compete in the changing digital world.
