This book is designed to help companies view Internet marketing strategically, bring together marketing, sales and operations functions that were previously separate and siloed, and systematically capture and apply data to drive dramatic improvements in performance. Drawing on their extensive experience with enterprise clients, Catherine Juon and Dunrie Greiling show how to implement a more iterative, measurable, and repeatable approach to Internet marketing, gain better information about which online strategies are working best, deliver better-qualified leads to sales, build an online sales engine to track every customer relationship from the very outset - and, above all, grow profits. Rather than covering individual Internet marketing tools in isolation, they show how to integrate the full strategic toolkit: social media, pay-per-click, Google AdWords, SEO, site usability, Google Analytics, audience analysis, CRM, lead generation, site navigation optimization, and more. Readerslearn how to use metrics and data analysis far more effectively to inform adjustments in both long-term strategy and short-term tactics. Along the way, the authors offer new solutions to challenges discussed in no other book - including the challenges of marketing, advertising, and pricing when Google flattens all channels and geographies into a single gigantic marketplace

Autoren-Porträt von Catherine M. Juon, Dunrie A. Greiling, Catherine Buerkle
Catherine Juon is co-founder and Catalyst of Pure Visibility, passionately leading the charge for companies to grow via the Internet. Catherine traces her love of the Internet back to Poland, where in 1991 she began teaching at the University of Warsaw. There, she experienced the power of the Internet to transform international communication, from weeks to seconds, in a way we now take for granted. Catherine believes a similar transformation is taking place in commerce-and dubbed the system of harnessing the power of the Internet for commerce Your Online Sales Engine. Based on the experience of helping companies from the corner store to global enterprises, Catherine and her company teach companies how to benefit from the web by sharing the foundations you'll learn in this book. Dunrie Greiling is Pure Visibility's Director of Happiness and its lead Relationship Manager, responsible for national and global online sales engine engagements for Pure Visibility clients.

Rezension zu „Internet Marketing Start to Finish “
"In Internet Marketing Start to Finish, Catherine Juon and Dunrie Greiling reveal their hard-won secrets and strategies for better online visibility. If you sell online, buy this book!" --Peter Morville, Author of Ambient Findability and co-author of Information Architecture for the World Wide Web "This is a must-read for anyone who wants clarity in the complicated world of online marketing. This is an excellent work informed by deep experience in the Internet marketing arena." --Terry Oprea, CEO, Mort Crim Communications, Inc. "This is a really fascinating look at advanced techniques for building a web presence, yet the authors have made it simple enough for beginners. By demystifying information architectures, online personas, and web analytics, they have created a guidebook that will enable even web newbies to drive new business through their websites--and and after all, isn't that why we're all spending so much time on our websites in the first place?" --Patrick Fetterman, VP Marketing, Plex Systems, Inc. "There is a definite science that underpins the art of online marketing; Catherine and Dunrie have demonstrated a tremendous command of that science through their work with our team and now have taken it a step further by documenting it in a clearly articulated and consumable manner within this book. If you're marketing your business online, you need to have command of these concepts or else you're missing the boat." --Eric Kushner, Director, Marketing Strategy, Compuware Corporation "Internet Marketing Start to Finish takes you from the front door through the back office of online sales, design, development and metrics--and then how to get noticed. Measurable results are the 'killer app' in today's online marketing strategy. With social and mobile so tightly integrated and expanding quickly, if you miss the metrics between your online brand and your customer, then you're missing the entire game. The authors bring all their years of proving to their own
