Chat Bot’s & Facebook Ads: Perfect Together

February 25, 2018 by Hawk Leave a Comment

Chat Bot’s & Facebook Ads: Perfect Together

Let’s Chat Bot

Here is a short video I made to showcase how to create a Chat Bot inside of Facebook Messenger. Then I demonstrate how to create an an Ad (in Facebook) that will drive folks into Facebook Messenger (where folks will engage with the Chat Bot).

The way I set it up, support staff can also answer the questions. Staff members answer any question that have stumped the ‘Bot, and also easily program in those answers
— so that the next person who asks that question gets an automated reply.

The Future of Ad Tech with JD Prater

The Future of Ad Tech with JD Prater

I enjoy thinking about the future of Ad Tech… but it’s more fun as a group sport.

I was fortunate that AdStage’s JD Prater agreed to join me on a journey into the future. As head of Growth Marketing for AdStage he keeps focused on every trend and every bit of breaking PPC news…

We talked about:

  1. Digital Billboard ads that might target just a single person,
  2. Why limited inventory insures it’s in Facebook’s interest be a great “match maker” for advertisers and users
  3. How interactive voice based ads might work “Hey Google…,”
  4. Speculate about Amazon’s future, how well they play with other ad networks (and their billion dollar net income from advertising),
  5. What it means if we all literally owned all the data that was captured (and enhanced) while tracking us,
  6. My notion that the future of ad tech is more reward ads,
  7. How Facebook Analytics allows attribution of Reactions (like, love, etc.) right into eCom sales funnels
  8. How the lose of Net Neutrality might drive update of lightweight HTML like AMP & Facebook Instant Articles
  9. and much much more!

Harry Hawk:

Hello, this is Harry Hawk, and this is Talking About Everything, and today we’re talking about the future of Ad Tech with JD Prater. JD, welcome to the show.

 

(00:00:39.7) JD Prater:

Hey, thanks, Harry, for having me on.

 

(00:00:41.1) Harry Hawk:

We’re talking about Ad Tech. You’re with AdStage. What makes you sort of interested in the future of Ad Tech?

 

(00:00:50.2) JD Prater:

I’ll give you two-folds. For me, I’ve been in marketing now for quite a while. I’ve had a really fun time with a lot of the advertising side of marketing, more specifically. I don’t know. It’s one of those things where you can immediately get some kind of immediate result, so I launch something and I get a result, and that becomes really addictive, and that’s something that I really like about advertising, whenever you’re putting out different messages or different ads or you’re testing…that, for me, is kind of my personality as a kind of a performance type of marketer, and for AdStage, AdStage is really trying to help people like me, and that’s really trying to connect marketers to the data that they need to understand performance, to understand insights, and really draw them out in order to take action that they need.

 

(00:01:35.4)

We’ve got a reporting solution, we’ve got an automation solution, and then we also have our API solution, if you just want it shipped into your own database.

 

(00:01:45.3) Harry Hawk:

It really gets to something we were sharing in email about, you know, my own vision for the future of AdTech, at the time, in the ’90s, thinking more about TV, but this sort of master station where a marketer, a buyer, or a planner, somebody can just sort of be there and start spinning up ads and seeing results and checking marketing databases, and that seems like a lot of what you just described.

 

(00:02:11.5) JD Prater:

It seems like you had the vision a while ago, but I mean I think we’re slowly able to kind of piece all that together. I think that was one of the things, you know, as a younger company, at just over 5 and 1/2 years old, it took us a little bit to kind of figure out where the market was going, where it was headed to get the engineering resource that you need to build out this product. Now, I feel really good about where we’re headed, going into 2018.

Memes Monetization and Data Privacy

April 19, 2017 by Harry Hawk Leave a Comment

Memes Monetization and Data Privacy

Targeting memes with personal data (i.e., Facebook reactions) has been suggested as Cambridge Analytica’s low cost “support strategy” for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.

Brands can use the same or similar tools; in this episode I talk with researcher and personal data entrepreneur Paul Dehaye about data privacy, using memes to “collect” and “share” segments of consumers and the monetization of personal data.

Traditional Education is Passive

Sitting still at your desk “absorbing” knowledge is passive. Often the only “active” part of a classroom is distracting siren call of smart phones, and watches.

Cahoot – usually used in plural they’re in cahoots.  He was robbed by a man who was in cahoots with the bartender. – Merriam-Webster

Drag in Distrito Federal, Mexico City

August 3, 2016 by Austin Greitz Leave a Comment

Drag in Distrito Federal, Mexico City

Gender performance is not a uniquely American experience, although it has certainly entered into the mainstream of American popular culture within the past several years. Drag and gender performance are instead global phenomena, which occur across the globe in a variety of different forms. These pictures were taken at the annual LGBTTTI Pride Parade in Distrito Federal, Mexico, known to Americans as Mexico City, on June 26, 2016. These photos show the varied forms which gender performance can take in Mexico, highlighting both the similarities and differences between Mexican and American styles of gender performance. These photos also highlight the varied subjects that are interrogated through gender performance–from gender, to species, to culture, to indigenous versus colonizer narratives, and everything in between.

All photos by Guillermo Angulo, Distrito Federal, 26 June 2016.

Guillermo maybe coming to NYC. He is looking for folks who want to talk about photography.

Two participants at Mexico City's Pride parade. One wears white and is made up to look like a fawn; the other dons all black and facial spikes.
Drag and gender performance in Mexico cover just as varied themes as they do in the States, while reflecting a different set of cultural values.
