Because it's a one-on-one interaction, and it can be highly personalized based on where a lead is in the buyer's journey. In terms of engagement, research shows that lead nurturing emails beat out individual email blasts by far." HubSpot Facebook Cripples Ad Blockers on Its Site, Gives Consumers New Control Over Ads Facebook is making it easier for users to determine which ads they are served by allowing them to choose the ads they see based on brand and interest, and giving them the ability to opt out of ads from selected companies. For example, Facebook can tell a user if they're on a brand's email marketing list, and they'll be able to opt out of seeing those ads in the future. AdAge Twitter Video Ads Deliver Recall, Receptivity (Study) New research finds, among other things, "Twitter was the only platform where cognitive effort, or information processing, increased for video ads, on both desktop and mobile, and attention levels remained constant on Twitter whether users were watching organic or branded ad content," adding that mobile recall was "significantly higher."

Mobile Search Intensifies Duplicate Listing Challenge, Moz Local Attempts To Solve According to MediaPost, "Moz Local on Tuesday released an update to its Duplicate Listing Dashboard that tracks more than one billion duplicate listings across the Web. The platform aims to provide an increasing amount of data and visibility into duplicate listings -- but more importantly, can either remove those duplicates or update changes to the listings through aggregators and partners." MediaPost Facebook organic reach is down 52% for publishers’ Pages this year Marketing Land reports that "From January 2016 through mid-July 2016, publishers’ Facebook Pages have experienced a 52-percent decline in organic reach." This decline, however dramatic, should function more as a catalyst for publishers to create more compelling, more engaging content like video, to increase visibility. Marketing Land Facebook to websites: stop clickbait headlines -- or else Publishers on Facebook that utilize clickbait headlines have been issued yet another blow from Facebook - and for good reason. Using a built-in filter that functions like a SPAM filter, Facebook will identify which posts are clickbait, and which pages or domains they came from. Links shared from those pages and domain will appear lower in the Facebook News Feed.
