Unfortunately, I had accidentally deleted many awesome multi-screen slides without making a backup just before giving my presentation which included a video crowdfunding case study. Lesson: Make a backup. Nonetheless, HiMA was a great learning experience!

26. Integration of Data Makes it Happen
Even if you are integrating messy multi-channel data:
email, call center data, in-store, computer and mobile
conversions to calculate a marketing cost per goal...
There is not an easy way
to identify the most
profitable combinations
of screens!
Video is a common denominator
across screens.

A large portion of searches tend are
consumptive rather than aspirational.
Consider action, context, location, and
mood.
What is a multi-screen searcher
doing right now?
What’s channels are most important?
Segment everything to build models, and
then execute and experiment within and
across channels and screens.
@t1c1
Become one with the data!
Embed intent in messaging
Keep the multi-screen in mind
