Friday, September 10, 2010 E Commerce Expo special case study issue  
Celebros creates beautiful results for Avon.com
Increased conversion rate by 50%
http://celebros.com/pdf/Avon_CaseStudy.pdf

The combination of customer reviews with site search and navigation has proven to be an effective tool for increasing conversion Case study.
 
In 2005, Avon.com went live with the Celebros Salespersonsolution, an intelligent site search, navigation and merchandisingtool for online stores.

The results have been a huge success. So much so that in February 2008, Avon.com went live with another added-value Celebros solution - the incorporation of their existing customer reviews tool with Celebros Salesperson.

The integration was quick and easy, demanding zero direct involvement or technical development from Avon.com.

Drawing on the data provided by Avon's customer reviews provider, Celebros automatically incorporates customer ratingson all search results pages, according to the average numericalvalue rated by reviewers, and displays the rating results in anicon format.

Emails that get results
E-mail marketing: Sweating the details to
create success

Developing successful e-mail marketing campaigns
http://www.internetretailer.com/article.asp?id=276...

The noise in e-mail marketing is only going to grow and as it does, retailers need to pay more attention to fundamental best practices if they want their e-mail marketing messages to effectively drive sales

Little changes—more relevant content, focused subject lines and careful attention to images and text—can dramatically boost e-mail campaign performance.

Developing successful e-mail marketing campaigns is tougher than ever for retailers: Consumers are getting more e-mail than ever, Internet service providers are enforcing stricter rules on e-mail campaigns to reduce spam and messages sent to non-deliverable addresses, and consumers are becoming more finicky about the messages they open.

Taking swipes at Palin
Sarah Palin...."a bad Disney movie."
New fake blogs and a critique on the Governor of Alaska
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6urw_PWHYk

Photo Shopped

Actor Matt Damon criticizes Alaska governor Sarah Palin, citing her inexperience in national politics and comparing her candidacy to "a bad Disney movie."

Almost as soon as she was announced as Republican presidential candidate John McCain's running mate, fake blogs, YouTube videos and comedians have sprung up to take swipes at Palin.

"Palin is ripe for satire because her politics are so hideous she is almost a parody of herself!"
comedian Margaret Cho told ABCNews.com.

Here is another really good Palin impression. McSame is pretty good as well. Enjoy....

If you catch any clever virals etc on the good Governor please send them to Will Corry at theMarketingblog.
