Welcome
Marketing has changed more in the last five years than it has
in the last century. It’s never been more exciting to be a part of
this evolving landscape, but it’s also never been more important
for us to create a modern marketing community where we can
exchange ideas, share best practices and explore the future of
both the art and science of marketing.
Thank you for joining us as we delve into the strategies and
tactics that leading digital marketers have employed with success
and are prioritizing for the year ahead to increase customer
retention, decrease churn and create long lasting profitability.
Why Lift?
When Gartner Research predicted that 80% of a
brand’s future revenue would come from just 20% of
existing customers, it signaled the need for a dramatic
shift in how we, as brand leaders and marketers,
develop strategies and deploy day-to-day tactics.
Today’s retail and publishing companies are not
simply exploring how to engage differently, we’re
making dramatic shifts in organizational design,
operations and infrastructure. We know that the keys
to success are not in chasing growth or profitability,
but in determining how to grow profitably.
Lift offers the only forum for exploring and identifying
high-priority strategies for the year to come for
email marketing, onsite personalization and mobile
automation alongside the industry’s top analysts,
thought leaders and marketers.
While we are still in the early days of
understanding the science behind customer
retention, we can now understand and engage
customers at the individual level through
technologies like Sailthru. Lift is unlike any
other digital marketing conference in that it
is wholly focused on retention and provides a
forum to connect with other marketers who
understand that you cannot build a profitable
brand on acquisition alone.”

How Sailthru Drove 175% Lift in
Revenue per Send for an IR 500 Retailer
With more than 5 million customers, The Clymb identified an opportunity
to optimize marketing ROI by increasing purchase frequency, average order
value and other metrics related to customer lifetime value.
They chose Sailthru because of our ability to easily deliver solutions for data
collection, personalization, predictions and marketing analytics.
While the larger marketing clouds move quickly,
we needed to move faster. Sailthru allowed us
to level jump to where we needed to be, and
what they have coming to market will allow
us to once again make another jump. Not only
are they ahead, with the products being fully
integrated—legacy vendors just can't compete.”

How Sailthru Increased Engagement
and Revenue for One of the World’s
Fastest-Growing Publishers
Business Insider, a leading online business publication covering
technology, media, general news and investing, approached Sailthru
in 2009 after experiencing a plateau in their email program that had
previously been growing rapidly. Using Sailthru’s full suite of behavioral
communication and personalization solutions for the past four years,
Business Insider has turned their email program from a “nice to have”
channel into an unparalleled growth vehicle for the company.
I would definitely recommend Sailthru.
Before Sailthru, we weren’t able to highlight our full library of
content. With Sailthru, our email and onsite personalization
is so accurate that my mom, who is a Business Insider
subscriber, thinks that I select the stories for her personally.”

Delivering Marketing Continuity
to the Connected Customer
Reggie Wideman, Senior Director of Strategy, Janrain
One of the biggest challenges for today’s marketer is the ability to look holistically at the entire customer experience. With multiple devices and channels for consumers to engage on — not to mention the numerous business systems used to collect each set of data — the view of the customer journey is becoming increasingly fragmented. Omnichannel marketing is the tactical way to think about executing seamless customer experiences, but marketing continuity is the end goal: A consistent and personalized cross-device and cross-channel customer experience, which is necessarily impacted by the systems that support it — and the data that powers those systems. Learn how to take your customers from unknown to known, how to identify actionable data using a consolidated customer profile, and, ultimately, how to drive personalized engagement with your brand.
4:25 - 5:10p
Predictive Analytics Workshop
Stephen Dove, SVP of Product, SailthruPredictive analytics are among the most effective insight development tools for the modern marketer, yet they are often challenging to manage and implement. In this workshop, we’ll detail multiple practical use cases for predictive analytics, including forecasting customer lifetime value, advancing segmentation and decreasing churn.

Relevancy is the New Currency
Neil Capel, Founder and Chairman, Sailthru

Now is the Time for Email Innovation
Shar VanBoskirk, VP and Principal Analyst, Forrester Research
Digital disruption is wreaking havoc on existing business models, thrusting unexpected competitors into your markets and pushing customer expectations to heights too precarious for most firms’ established marketing practices. In this environment, your relationships with your customers are your only competitive differentiator. And email is still the most effective tool for building customer relationships. In this presentation we will explore how you can do more with your email marketing, answering these specific questions: What is the role of marketing in the future? How can you innovate using digital marketing tools? How can email support your marketing innovations?

It All Begins with Data
David Raab, Founder of Raab Associates and author of The Marketing Performance Measurement Toolkit
When it comes to personalization, retention and profitability, data is the key that unlocks innovation and opens the door to better results. The reality is, we have a lot of data, and it’s not all good. If you truly want to transform and connect with your customers, then you need to roll up your sleeves, get dirty and start digging through your data, comparing it with the data you want and being realistic about the data you can get. During this presentation, we’ll discuss how to start that process, what you can expect along the way and how to set yourself up for success in this modern marketing world.
5:10 - 5:40p
