Myself and the  Icon Digital Marketing team yesterday had the pleasure of attending the third annual Australian Google Analytics User Conference at the PowerHouse Museum Sydney. Icon has had a representative at each of the three Australian conferences.

 

The Google Analytics User Conference , as always, was an ideal forum for us to learn the latest techniques and trends directly fromAvinashexperts from Google and other leaders in the industry. 

By far the highlight of the day was the keynote presentation by a man who can only be described as a Google Analytics superstar, Avinash Kaushik. Avinash is recognised worldwide as a Digital Marketing Evangelist for Google and his presentation can only be decribed as electrified and exciting, sharing new tools within Google Analytics and demonstrating how to better use the data available to create imp actful marketing campaigns. The focus for his presentation was to take all the data inside Google Analytics, break it down to what it means for your business and report it based on actionable insights that will directly make an impact on profits.

Second keynote was Analytics Evangelist for Google , Justin Cutroni. The focus for Justin’s presentation was to demonstrate how people, process and platform all work together to deliver insightful analytic reports and data that is meaningful for business. An interesting take away from Justin’s presentation is that keeping data a deep down hidden tool only accessed by the data analyst can be a mistake for business. Sharing data – while delivering the right training so people know what the data means – can benefit business as well as free up digital experts to be doing more insightful reports as they are no longer spending hours each day pulling easy data that others can now easily access.

What is paid, earned, shared and owned media?

By Erica Williams • February 8, 2023
Media is complex. Much more than it used to be. Since the dawn of the internet and rise of social media, the number of media options has exploded. For a marketing manager, they are like pieces of a puzzle, interconnecting and working together. So, how does a marketing manager make the pieces form a nice, big, beautiful picture, to successfully stand out not only amongst the competition but above the vast array of media noise? American digital marketing expert, Gini Dietrich, identified four types of media: Paid, Earned, Shared and Owned. She called it the PESO model . Here we look at the four types of media. We describe and analyse each one and discuss how they all fit together.

Icon celebrates 20 years in business

By Joe Papadatos • February 5, 2023
When we launched in 2003, the trend in agencies was to provide a specialist service, like creative or media buying. But we saw the opportunity to offer full-service marketing to our clients, taking the pain away from managing multiple agencies with multiple processes. We’ve chosen to continue to base ourselves in the Macarthur region, moving to Campbelltown in our current office nearly six years ago.  This has enabled us to build strong working relationships with many companies in our region including property developers, builders, manufacturers, local Councils, venues, and many more. We’ve also worked with loads of companies outside the region which is becoming so much easier with the aid of technology. We’re not just suppliers, but genuine business partners. I’d like to thank the many clients I’ve worked alongside in the past 20 years and look forward to continuing many of those relationships.
