Content Marketing
We put people and their needs at the core of our thinking, uncovering unique buyer personas and yielding a deep understanding of who Cisco would be talking to and, what they wanted to hear.
In design thinking, BlueMelon will always ‘frame the problem’ in order to conjure truly human-centred creative solutions for the client. For Cisco, this was put to them as a question ‘What do we wish?’. The teams’ wishlist highlighted past hurdles they wanted to clear, and many of the challenges that they historically faced with their social media strategy. In design thinking, by framing the problem, it often organically leads to solution-focused thinking. During workshops, this is a crucial step for BlueMelon, whereby a ‘How might we?’ statement is framed. For Cisco, the exercise turned their challenge into an opportunity, and it became clear to BlueMelon what Cisco needed to get out of a social media experience at their event.
Now that the end-goal was in sight, we had to get to know Cisco’s target audience. With the guidance of the Cisco team and their vast consumer knowledge, we shaped three very different buyer personas, with their individual pain points and goals defining the very different social media experience that each would have at Cisco Live! 2020.
With a clear goal and a defined target audience, we facilitated an ideation session, a creative brainstorm that revealed unique angles that had the potential to gain the attention of Cisco’s various personas. These collective ideas were then grouped into buckets of recurring themes and topics for further exploration. The ideas were fleshed out and cultivated into specific event touchpoints, customized to engage each persona, and plugged into the user’s unique journey, created with an experience mapping session.
Focusing first on what matters to people, we crafted a user journey for each persona. From the pre-event when they opened a targeted EDM or web browser, through the event itself (in person or virtually) and continuing on to engaging post-event content. The experience map presented an opportunity for event longevity; re-imagining a three-day conference into multiple micro-content campaigns that would stay relevant and engaging until 2021.
