Deep Dive: Exploiting the "Vicarious Hand Effect" in Marketing
How does a photo holding a product move the needle in terms of that product's consumer perception? More than you'd think. Tod speaks to a researcher who studied this effect.There are many advantages of e-commerce for the consumer — they can shop from home, it’s easier to compare products from different stores. But there’s always been one big disadvantage: They can’t touch anything. Sometimes, holding a product in your hand, is as much a part of the buying process as holding your credit card there.But if we can’t give them a good feeling by letting them touch the product, can we get at least half-way there?That’s what Andrea Luangrath set out to discover. She is an Associate Professor of Marketing at the Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa. She her colleagues have published a fascinating research study in the Journal of Marketing Research called “The Vicarious Haptic Effect in Digital Marketing and Virtual Reality.”.GO PREMIUM!Get these exclusive benefits when you upgrade:✅ Listen ad-free✅ Back catalog of 20+ marketing science interviews✅ Get the show earlier than the free version✅ “Skip to story” audio chapters✅ Member-only monthly livestreams with TodAnd a lot more!

Deep Dive: Preventing Shopping Cart Abandonment
New scientific research find that asking people to review product reviews or check out other product pages may be causing people to abandon their carts.In the e-commerce space, there is no end to the number of plugins, platforms, and pop-ups you can install on your store's webfront to try to juice sales. One of the biggest focuses of this category is around increasing the conversion rate between the moment someone adds a product to a cart and that person actually pays for it. In fact, I'd venture to say an entire industry now exists in the very specific, but very important, space known as Cart Abandonment. Some studies show that 80% of online shopping carts are abandoned. In this space, we see everything from urgently worded text messages to time-limited discount offers by email.Sometimes, these tools encourage people to come back to the site to read the product reviews, or browse more product pages.But a new paper published last month in the Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science says tactics like that might actually be CAUSING people to abandon their carts.Tod spoke with Angeline Scheinbaum, Associate Professor of Marketing at the Wilbur O. and Anne Powers College of Business at Clemson University in South Carolina.

Inside Google Ads — Sample Episode
Tod is on holiday until Feb 29, so in this episode, we're bringing you a sample episode of the new podcast from our Google Ads correspondent, Jyll Saskin Gales.📰 Get our free daily newsletter📈 Advertising: Reach Thousands of Marketing Decision-Makers🌍 Follow us on social media or contact usIn this week's episode of Inside Google Ads, host Jyll Saskin Gales, a seasoned marketing coach with over a decade of Google Ads expertise, takes listeners on a deep dive into the world of ad targeting within Google Ads. Drawing from her extensive experience working with over 10,000 Google Ads accounts, Jyll answers three compelling questions sourced from her engaged social media community.The episode kicks off with a question from Jean-Claude, who seeks insights on how to people who have visited specific websites. Jyll unravels the intricacies of Google Ads custom segments, providing step-by-step guidance on creating targeted ads based on visited websites. She emphasizes the importance of creativity in forming niche audiences for effective targeting.The second question comes from Hicham, who wants to know how to place display ads on a specific website that uses Google AdSense. Jyll sheds light on placements, topics, and display/video keywords, offering a comprehensive guide on how to choose specific websites, apps, or YouTube channels for display and non-conversion-based video campaigns.Moving to the realm of search campaigns, the third question from an anonymous TikTok user addresses the apparent contradiction in Jyll's advice on using audiences in targeting and observation modes with search campaigns. Jyll clarifies the nuances between both options, and provides actionable insights on when to use each mode, and how audience observations can inform future targeting strategies.During the episode, Jyll shares practical tips, dispels confusion, and empowers listeners to leverage the full potential of Google Ads targeting options.

The Uncomfortable Truth About Privacy Consent Banners (deep-dive interview)
One of the jobs of a marketer is to instill in the consumer a sense of trust — trust in the brand, trust in the product or service, trust in how the company handles their personal data, and so on.That latter job is often fulfilled by putting a privacy notice on the site. Sometimes we do it because it's the law in our country; sometimes, in an effort to show people we're a responsible company.But are we shooting ourselves in the proverbial foot?That's what Aaron Brough and his colleagues set out to discover. Dr. Brough is an Associate Professor of Marketing at Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University. He is the co-author of a new scientific research study called "[The Bulletproof Glass Effect: Unintended Consequences of Privacy Notices](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00222437211069093).".Our Sponsors:* Check out Factor 75 and use my code todaypod50 for a great deal: https://www.factor75.com/* Check out Miro and use my code PODCAST for a great deal: https://miro.com/Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

That said, there are some pretty important things discussed in these sessions — like their take on AI modeling, how they see the future of creative, and a bunch more.If this isn't your jam, you can just delete these — our regular daily newscasts will continue to come your way.Our Sponsors:* Check out Indeed and use my code DIGITAL for a great deal: https://www.indeed.com/* Check out Miro and use my code No promotion code/URL for a great deal: https://miro.com/Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

SPECIAL: Secrets from a Facebook Ad Support Rep
As you may know, I'm on a mini- family holiday this week, so in lieu of a regular episode, we're playing this. A couple of months ago, I interviewed a real Facebook ad support rep. One of the people you are on the other end of a chat window with when things go south.This was not a Facebook-sanctioned interview, so we agreed to keep this person's identity confidential — we did, however, independently confirm that he is who he says he is, and does what he says he does.I thought it was an eye-opening look behind the magic curtain there, and I hope you enjoy it too.The next episode of this podcast will be Friday, when we do an extended episode that will cover all the digital marketing news of this week.• Get each episode as a daily email newsletter (with images, videos, and links) — b.link/pod-newsletter• Join our weekly listener Zoom every Friday at 3pm Pacific.

Split-Test Your ORGANIC Posts (!)
The one marketing tactic that consumers say will bring them BACK to your bricks-and-mortar store… Instagram is thinking about letting links in captions be tappable — for a price… Facebook’s quick new ad format has one potentially big tradeoff… and I have the proof, friends, that humanity is going to hell.

When Lawyers Try to Write Marketing Emails
Podcasts borrow inspiration from programmatic ad technology... Yes, that was a scary email you got from YouTube. No, you don’t have to worry about it. How to reposition your brand’s content to be more friendly to voice assistants… and the final word from Google: Does having lots of words on all your brand’s web pages help or hurt your company’s search engine ranking?

🎵 The Whole World’s a Blur When You Waste Time With Me
And you thought the GDPR was bad. Wait until you hear what Europe just told Facebook to do. The most downloaded social media app last month was the most beleaguered. Adding the latest label to your brand’s Google listing may be more about politics than promotion. And the data’s in — if you want your Brand Awareness campaign to work, show your ads to more young people.

Facebook to Restrict How Many Ads You Can Run
Spotify is burning up the podcast charts, in all the wrong ways… Facebook’s putting ads on sites that never asked for ads… How Pinterest’s algorithm changes could affect your brand’s content strategy… and the World Health Organization paying an influencer to talk up contact tracing… an influencer that is completely computer-generated.

Everybody Hates Google
More details on the change to Google Ads that many digital marketers are saying will have a staggeringly negative effect on their campaigns… Meanwhile, Microsoft’s ad platform adds perhaps its biggest upgrade ever — one that you B2B marketers will love… TikTok opens the door to a whole bunch of third-party digital management platforms, all while Snapchat just had one of its best months ever. And a warning if you’re running ad campaigns this weekend… you may want to hit the Pause button before you close your laptop for the weekend.

Google hates you and to prove it, they’ve taken away one of the single most helpful parts of their ads dashboard…. Meanwhile, LinkedIn adds some nice new features for people who administer their company’s page… and I swear I’m going to make this a daily feature — it’s the Facebook Ad Platform Bug of the Day! Hold onto your hats, friends. This one’s a doozy.

Why My Zoom Background is of Iceland
While TikTok is poised to announce its buyer, it also announces a significant expansion into direct e-commerce… Wordpress fixes the bug that broke millions of brand web sites… Google says it will start applying a tax to advertising in some countries… and a clever digital campaign from a beer company that’s centered on the Zoom video meeting app.

What should we call single-set ad campaigns?

That Web Site is Ugly As Sin. (And It's 100% Deliberate.)
Twitter launches a brand new ad placement
It’s D-day for children’s brands on YouTube
Yes, Instagram’s growth rate is on the decline
And don’t mock that horribly designed web site. It might just be killing it in conversions.

Google's Huge New Year Update... Didn't Actually Happen
GOOGLE makes it easier for your brand to collect reviews
Did Google push out a HUGE algorithm update on New Year’s Eve?

Ad platforms OTHER than the Big Two are starting to round up the wagons
Facebook’s new Instagram influencer database is a bigger deal than it looks
And if your ads aren’t producing the sales they did LAST week — there’s a reason for it, and it’s not your fault.

H1 tags are really important! Naw, just kidding.
On today’s show:
Ready the cannons! Instagram’s starting to fire its e-commerce weapons.
Brand managers who have to sort through thousands of YouTube comments are getting some good news

That “Hide Replies” feature on Twitter may be something you DON’T want to use for your brand’s account
And Google says “Don’t fret the H1 tags. Turns out, they’re not that important after all.”
