Times They Are A-Changin’
The Mac had the mouse. The iPod a clickwheel. The iPhone a touchscreen. What about the Apple
Watch you ask Well its got the "digital crown" a tiny knob replacing the conventional crown on
traditional watches and a "Taptic engine" that helps it communicate.
The ubiquity of mobile devices is rapidly being complemented with wearables and digital accessories
that not only have added screens but totally new interactions. Yet it seems that marketers so far
have only just scratched the surface in terms of the possibilities of connecting with their customers in
meaningful ways.

slide 4: 1. Haptic Marketing Anyone
The shift to Inbound strategies using SEO and
content dripping has been a a good one. While
this required significant investments of time and
budget this also heralded the age of permission
based marketing.
Use mobile as the focus of your customer communication strategies. Short bursty communications are the new
norm. Email has become a secondary communication channel ideal for long-form updates e.g. a newsletter.

The ongoing smartphone and wearables revolution brings in a form of continuous touch between
consumers and brands that we’ve not seen before. "Haptic Marketing" refers to strategies that leverage
this sense of touch and feedback between a brand and its connected customers. Its about enriching
experiences. Nurturing enduring loyalty. Enabling new value-based interactions. To Inform. To Engage.
To Induce. To convert
Stairway To Heaven
We’ve come a long way from email blasts and disruptive banner ads so typical of interruption-based
marketing. Or have we The allure of a medium that is inexpensive has mass reach and is measurable
has been too big to ignore. However with customers in the driver’s seat opportunities from outbound
marketing are increasingly like finding broken needles in a haystack.

Coming In From the Cold
The Apple Watch’s "digital crown" may
indeed be a tiny knob that forever
changes how consumers and brand
communicate.
Emergence of new devices not only leads
to new interaction patterns but entirely
new customer behaviors. Which makes
old marketing strategies ineffective.
Internet banner ads that once averaged a
click-through rate of 2–3 are now
lower than a tenth of that at 0.1–0.3.
Meanwhile push notification campaigns
delivering rewards have open rates of
80.
2. Emergent Interaction Patterns
It is important to identify these trends at early
stages and to formulate effective marketing
strategies that can keep up with the inevitable
change. Lets take a look at some of these
next.

Here are some emergent interaction patterns at the forefront of new consumer
experiences connecting the digital to the physical.
slide 7: The new app economy has miniaturized mobile apps to be conduits for delivering microservices.
There’s an app for that Like to hail a cab. Or call a plumber. Or order dinner. The bar is high for
product teams to create apps with high utility great simplicity and robust transaction support.
Meanwhile interaction patterns are stretching product priorities to enable social actions intent actions
such as product likes add to wish list share with a friend actions that connect user activity
synchronized shopping cart etc.
3. The Long Tail of Interactions

The problem of enabling connected experiences is
compounded as brands add apps for new touch points –
there are over 6000 apps already on iTunes for Apple
watch
Traditional software design which focuses on delivering
great experiences to known users for known use cases is
in fact under great pressure due to the pace of change in
devices apps and interaction patterns. Providing
meaningful data-driven experiences to all users is what the
long tail of interactions requires. Next lets look at how apps
can deliver new overlay experiences.

slide 8: Product teams today need new strategies to build a ”interaction layer" that can connect all of the digital
touch points through which consumers interact with the brand. Product and marketing teams are
looking to enable real-time customer communications at forefront of this transformative "haptic"
change.
Relevant communication is critical to multichannel connected customer journeys. Whether you are in
a store or browsing online you want brand interactions to reflect your needs and be value additive.

slide 9: 5. Data Drives Action

Context is a key component for a great experience.
It encompasses knowledge of:
² Who is the customer
² What’s their location
² What kind of device is being used
² What are some of the historical interactions of
this customer with the brand
² Any product preferences
Typically brands have a lot of this contextual information
already but it resides in isolated pools and is not easily
accessible to the customer facing staff or to the marketer. In
order to drive conversions on mobile marketers need to
have access to all this information to interact with the
customer knowledgably.
For example a retail app may have the following information about a user: Megan age 30-45
periodically buys clothes for children via her smartphone. She can be sent extremely relevant offers
on her phone. “Hi Megan We have a 15 discount just for you on childrens’ clothing”
