Digital is Changing the Game!


I am a Certified Digital Marketer, CDM - shouted the embroidery on the sleek white jacket that I received last Jan. 20, 2011 as one of 18 CDM graduates of the 1st batch of the Ateneo- IMMAP (Internet Marketing and Mobile Association of the Philippines). While this technically means I completed the 11 modules of the Digital Marketing diploma program (2009 to 2010) it means so much more...



The CDM program included 11 modules covering marketing using Mobile, Email, Websites, Blogs, Search Engines, Social Networks, Virtual Communities as part of an Ethical and Integrated Marketing Communications Strategy. The latest and most popular technologies are already being used in AGSB and ASMPH marketing management classes where students have used personal Google blogs, Facebook, Slideshare and LinkedIn to view lectures, submit assignments, get latest announcements and attend on-line classes. More importantly, the students have continued access to the class marketing resources even after the trimester ends.

Digital is changing the game!

18P Paradigm for Marketing Analysis

The 4Ps of Marketing has long been widely used to represent a summation of the most basic marketing concepts.

This 18P paradigm presents a new mindset for marketing analysis and provides a systematic approach to tackling today's marketing challenges. Just as a doctor uses a stethoscope to initially diagnose a patient, this simple tool helps focus often limited resources to where it is most needed.

Transforming Options Into Necessities.

No words needed. Grab a handkerchief before you watch this...



This is a difficult product to market because it belongs in the unusual and small category of products you buy not for yourself but for other people. Also, this service does not provide instant gratification which makes it a class on its own.

As they say, the only 2 sure things in this world are taxes and ... Why gamble on something that will definitely happen? Why not prepare? Beats me.

Simplified and Improved 10 Step Marketing Plan- 2011 edition

This is a useful guide for making a marketing plan. It emphasizes 10 key areas for consideration:

Step 1- Primary Target Market (describe them demographically, psychographically and behaviorally)
Step 2- Needs, Wants and Demands of the Primary Target Market (relate to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs)
Step 3- Competition and Competitive Position Map- Who are your direct and indirect competitors and how are you positioned against them (2 maps)
Step 4- What is the gap, the opportunity and how will you position (based on the gap in the competitive positioning map)
Step 5- What is the size of the market from the 3 C perspectives (customer, company and competition)
Step 6-9 is all about the traditional 4 P marketing mix
Step 6- Product: What is the product. How many variants does it have. How does it look in the shelf vs. competitors
Step 7- Promo: How is the product promoted (Integrated marketing communications: Mass Communication- Sales Promotions, Advertising, Public Relations, Events and Experiences; Personal Communication- Direct Marketing, Interactive Marketing, Personal Selling and Word of Mouth)
Step 8- Price: How is the product priced vs. competition. If the product has several variants and sizes, how is it generally priced (premium, parity or discount)
Step 9- Place- Where is the product distributed? How does it reach the customers?
Step 10- What is the generic winning strategy- Low Cost Producer? Supply & Distribution Leverage, Differentiation, Niche?

The simplified, illustrated, annotated guide is shown below.

The accompanying downloadable template is shown below.

A Vision-Driven Guide to HyperMarketing Plans for the Brand with Your Name On It

The most important brand in the world is you. Not Google, not Coke and not Sony as changes to these brands don't really affect you as much as what happens to your personal and professional brand. All things being equal, a brand with a plan has more chances of success than a brand with no plan. So why not use marketing and business principles for the brand called you. Drive it with vision and constantly achieve!

Marketing H1N1: Contaminating Markets with Positive Flu

\Almost everybody, and his brother, knows about the perils of A(H1N1) virus. It is an worldwide pandemic that has just started and is poised to strike in a bigger way during its second wave. But what if there is such a thing as a Positive Flu? Something that brings goodness and benefits to everyone it contaminates? Assuming that there is such a thing, then what can marketing people learn about spreading this positive flu?
1. Spreading the flu is cheap. One contact is all it takes. Then, all the "infected" person has to do is to travel and meet other people. This has to be the "holy grail" of marketing communications- penetrating large markets at almost zero cost.
2. Children, the elderly, and sick people people are more susceptible to the "positive" infection than others. Effective marketing communications are designed to hit primary target markets.
3. It will take some time and a lot of money for those who want to oppose the flu to develop a vaccine. Marketing competitors can react but the first-to-market companies have considerable competitive advantage.
4. Over time, the positive flu mutates making it a stronger strain and unaffected by vaccines developed for earlier versions. Over time, the competitive scenario changes and only the strongest survive.
5. The flu and the marketing message thinks global and acts local. Both are generally universal and recognize no geographic, trade, political or social barriers.
6. Many people who have the flu are not aware they have it. Many of those who have it are not willing to follow the precautions to stop the spread of the virus. People who believe in certain marketing messages and are loyal to certain brands dont even know about it. Yes, being a facebook or twitter fanatic is a good example.
7. The flu and marketing messages affect a great part of society over a prolonged period of time- making people change the way they live. (Prof. Bong DeUngria, August 2009)
