Data to Develop Mobile Marketing Strategies<br />
to Reach Consumers<br />
Rafael Alcaraz, Ph.D., Vice President Global Advanced<br />
Analytics, Digital Media and Strategic Foresight,<br />
THE HERSHEY COMPANY<br />
The use of mobile technology in the CPG industry has<br />
increased significantly in the past five years, adding a<br />
layer of complexity to the marketing researcher’s task.<br />
Although point-of-sale data have become more<br />
accessible, the data do not represent the individual<br />
characteristics necessary to successfully segment and<br />
target consumers at a granular level. Rafael presents a<br />
masked analysis in which he reveals insights based on<br />
aggregate point-of sale-data may lead to a significantly<br />
different mobile marketing strategy than insights<br />
obtained from mining frequent shopper data.<br />
