  • How Chipotle’s VP of digital marketing creates viral-worthy campaigns

    To recruit new customers, look no further than your existing customers—especially the most passionate ones. Tressie Lieberman, Chipotle’s vice president of digital marketing, calls these customers “super fans,” and tapping into what makes them tick is key to the company’s marketing strategies . “Our strategy is definitely to supercharge the super fans,” Lieberman says on Now What? , a podcast by Wix. “When you work at a brand like Chipotle, where people are so passionate about your product and what you stand for, you want to lean into that.” After you create a website for your business, you should focus on making people feel seen and valued, sending the right message to the right person at the right time and creating opportunities for enjoyment. In a sense, these are the basic tenets of building relationships with the people who are most passionate (and vocal) about your brand. It can pay off, as they’re most likely to share their experiences with their fans and followers, too. Here are three ways Lieberman and her team at Chipotle keep their audience engaged in an authentic and meaningful way. 01. Personalize your messaging Chipotle's website promotion meets their customers where they are with the right messages, tailored to them. For example, they don't show their new chicken quesadilla to customers who had previously ordered vegetarian. "It's a small thing, but it's such a thoughtful way to show customers that you're paying attention to them, that you know what's important to them, which is ultimately going to build trust," says Lieberman. And at the same time, you'll drive sales by showing up in the right ways for them. The same applies to the emails customers receive. Chipotle launched a 20-million member celebration last year where they used data to help people understand their engagement with Chipotle—that was one of their most shared emails. "It's really cool when you can see an email making its way to social because people are talking about how they've been shopping at Chipotle over the past year and what they've been eating at Chipotle," says Lieberman. 02. Put fun first It's well-known in the psychology of selling that tapping into peoples' emotions is essential for getting them to pull out their wallets. When looking at her campaigns, it's obvious Lieberman knows this and uses it to her advantage. "We take our food seriously. We don't take ourselves too seriously,” she says. “And I think it's really important to meet customers where they are and bring in some joy.” Prime example: Chipotle’s cilantro soap, inspired by how some people say cilantro tastes like soap. "We could ignore that, but instead we're like, 'let's play with it and actually create the soap that smells like cilantro.'" It sold out immediately.​​ Chipotle also partnered with e.l.f. Cosmetics for an ingredient-inspired eyeshadow pallet. This limited edition makeup collection had a huge media response with over three billion impressions driven by that superfandom. You want to bring the same type of marketing fun to emerging platforms, like the metaverse. Ask yourself, what would my customers actually enjoy here? For Chipotle, the answer was metaverse burrito parties. "No one wants another virtual event,” Lieberman says. “Let's do it in a way that is so unique to our consumer and Chipotle.” So, Chipotle recreated a successful Halloween event on Roblox, where customers could go through a Chipotle that looked exactly like one of their stores. "You'd dress up in costume like you would typically do at a Boorito event ,” she says. “But then, after that, you could go through a maze and discover virtual items," Lieberman explains. People played 8.5 million times. 03. Don’t wait Your corporate structure needs to encourage timely conversations and culture-driven campaigns. “As an organization today, where the world is moving in real time, you have to create a structure that responds to culture,” Lieberman says. Lieberman’s team created a system to work with legal quickly and escalate ideas through leadership just as fast. “Everybody has that shared mindset that we are going to move fast because that's how the world works,” she says. “When you do that enough, you start to build trust within the organization and people want to be a part of that. I've found that when you're doing great work and you're raising the bar and doing the unexpected, it just creates more advocates and more people wanting to join in because it's a lot of fun.” Listen to the episode now: Spotify Amazon Music Stitcher

  • 11 SEO trends experts think you should know

    The Wix SEO team has compiled the top 11 SEO trends we think will not only help your target audience find you on Google, but also help you build a solid organic growth strategy. But this important list comes with a disclaimer: we don’t really believe in SEO “trends.” SEO is not a short-term game or gimmick, but rather a part of your strategy that involves constant evolvement and growth. So whether you want to create a website , start a business, or just get your pages more visible in search—we’ve got you covered with SEO trends that will make your brand stand out. PS. Still not sure what SEO is? Start with our What is SEO guide. The SEO trends we’ll discuss: UX and performance Clustering SERP features Artificial Intelligence Brand trust Video content International SEO Site hierarchy Backlinks Conversion rate optimization Google updates and ranking volatility 01. UX and performance Key takeaway: Keep an eye on Google’s evolving user experience and performance metrics and measurement tools. Google introduced Core Web Vitals (CWV) over two years ago, and since then has gradually incorporated them into their algorithm (first mobile, then desktop). These performance metrics show us Google’s increasing focus on user experience and website performance . Not only should we aim to deliver the best content that matches a user’s search intent, but also Google also prioritizes fast-loading content that allows for immediate interaction. Since 2020, Google hasn’t introduced or updated CWV metrics. For the most part, how a site is measured against CWV is almost the same as when they were first introduced. But according to Asi Falcon, Technical SEO Expert, two recent updates show that Google is not only placing more emphasis on the user experience, but also making it easier for developers to improve page performance. First, in March 2022 Google introduced their Performance Insights panel, a tool that simplifies the CWV optimization process for developers. For example, it shows where a render blocking resource sits on a page, and makes it clear what slows it down the most. Additionally, in May 2022 Google introduced INP (Interaction to Next Paint), an experimental metric that measures all interactions in total runtime, beyond first load and responsiveness. Google states that INP is, “about making sure the website lets you interact with it within a short period of time.” Let’s say a user presses a button on a site. Originally, Google measured performance based on First Input Delay (FID). This metric indicated the time between the button being pressed and the signal sent to the “event listener” (what triggers the interactive element). Today, INP, by contrast, measures the entire time between the user pressing a button, and the interactive element actually appears. Google has not made it clear if INP will become a new metric or if it will replace FID entirely. But what is clear is that user first SEO is here to stay. 02. Clustering Key takeaway: Match your clusters with on-point internal linking. It’s no surprise that content quality matters alongside optimization for users and search engines. In the past, two specific Google updates—Hummingbird in 2013 and RankBrain in 2015—have placed topic-centered content in the spotlight. However, Ofir Buchsweiler, Content SEO Expert at Wix, predicts that the search engine is looking beyond single pages, and instead is looking for the big picture. “A satisfied user will get a whole journey around the topic on your site," she says. Judit Ruiz Ricart, Head of Growth for the Wix Blogs, agrees: "As search engine algorithms advance, our content efforts must evolve from keyword-centric to topic-wide.” Enter: clustering. Clustering means organizing your blog’s content according to relevant topics, in a way that helps signify to Google that you’re an authoritative source. Ricart says that at Wix, by covering a high percentage of entities (what Google refers to as a definable subject or concept) for a certain topic or cluster, all related content is more likely to rank in high positions. Let’s see what a marketing cluster looks like as an overarching topic: We’d create an in-depth article targeting “ Marketing Strategies ,” which will function as the cluster’s pillar page. We’d then expand on that cluster by breaking down its overarching topic. For example, creating a “ types of marketing ” subcluster, creating another pillar page that contained a complete guide to the different marketing types. But our marketing cluster doesn’t stop there. Let’s say that now, within the ”types of marketing” cluster we have an article about social media marketing. Our research shows us that this trending topic interests our readers and comes with a lot to write about. In this case, we’d build the topic of “social media marketing” into a sub-cluster and expand on “types of marketing” even further by including articles on Facebook marketing, Instagram marketing, etc. Eventually, each type of social media marketing we wrote about on the pillar page turns into their own articles and even subclusters of their own, down the line. To help connect the dots, Yael Iba Tepeleni, International SEO Expert at Wix, recommends using the most “overlooked” SEO tactic: Internal linking. “It will help Google discover your pages faster, users navigate easier, and most importantly, boost your rankings for a specific keyword/anchor. It’s a quick win,” she says. Semantic SEO is a part of the process when it comes to clustering and worth checking out. 03. SERP features Key takeaway: The SERP always evolves, and Google always experiments—keep an eye on what SERP features your target keywords rank for and adjust your content accordingly. Google knows that even if users search enter very broad terms, they are still searching for a relevant answer. That’s why featured snippets, which highlight specific excerpts from articles to provide users with quick answers, have become a favorite among SERP features. For years, SEO experts have copiously tracked and secured featured snippets, but some of the most eagle-eyed have noticed that Google is now testing the position of other SERP features like People Also Ask or Videos, to more accurately meet user intent. This example from Mordy Oberstein, Head of SEO Branding, shows just how much query filtering Google offers searchers, especially when searching broad terms: With this, Kyle Place, SEO Content Expert, says that a fluctuating SERP can affect your clicks and CTR—even if your ranking remains the same. “As Google adds or removes features, the number of organic results varies from the familiar 10 blue links. So while you may not see a drop in position for a particular keyword, you could be pushed further down the page or onto another one,” he adds. Mikki Ben-Or, SEO Content Expert, elaborates on this, saying that in the past, when Wix gains a keyword’s featured snippet, the CTR for that particular page increases— even compared to ranking in the first position on the SERP without the snippet. 04. Artificial Intelligence Key takeaway: Be open to change—automation can only help you. AI is an exciting space in any industry, and where it goes in SEO remains to be seen. Ido Shazkin, SEO Content Expert, has his eye on the scope and impact of AI on SEO from three angles: search, content writing, and on- and off-page analysis. AI and search: The SEO world had Artificial Intelligence on its radar since Google introduced MUM (Multitask Unified Model) in May of 2021. MUM works with natural language processing (NLP ) to process Google’s extensive global data (text, images and video in multiple languages) and accurately answer search queries. MUM highlights the following best practices for SEOs should: Focus on the specific intent of users more than ever Bring multimedia to your content when it matches users’ intent Cluster your content according to topics Organize your content by implementing internal linking and schema AI and content writing: Not every search query demands the best content in the world. Someone searching “how to start a YouTube channel,” for example, probably wants something straightforward, informative, with step-by-step instructions. They don’t want Pulitzer-winning content, so why waste time and resources creating it? It seems that AI-generated content (like those created by Natural Language Generation platforms Jasper, Copysmith and Writesonic) is stepping in to fill this void. One of the biggest concerns is if AI-generated content can meet the user’s expectations and Google’s strict content standards. Will they deem it of high enough quality or will they penalize it? Since this space is developing, there are no straight-forward answers with AI content generation. Plenty of content creators already use AI content tools for pre-publishing input, such as Grammarly and Wordtune, but Google is against AI pure AI-generated content. We predict that there’s room to experiment using AI to create a mix of article briefs and drafts, but we’re not losing the human element in the editing and publishing process. AI and on-page/off-page analysis If AI can make content creation faster, it can also help us organize, prioritize and scale our day-to-day workflows and research. AI has the potential to make SEO analysis more efficient in two areas: On-page analysis: An example is tracking and scaling tests to improve a page’s meta titles’ click-through-rate. AI tools like Rytr, Frase and Simplify can not only rewrite meta titles using SERP analysis, but they can also analyze your data and identify which keywords don’t reach your benchmark. Off-page analysis: AI tools like Similarweb can crawl the web and identify quality sites or content that advance your outreach efforts , saving you time. From niche podcasts, to sites with high topic authority and field experts—AI tools can help highlight relevant professionals to connect with. 05. Brand trust Key takeaway: First and foremost, be a great company—then focus on building up the signals that tell search engines just how great you are. Expertise, Authority and Trust (E-A-T) is not a new SEO concept, but a venerated and essential factor in creating high-quality, high-ranking content. What makes this worthy of our trends list, according to Ido Shazkin, SEO Content Expert, is that external brand and reputation reviews are now influencing the SERP and have a growing impact on a company’s online authority. Shazkin predicts that, in response, brands will signal authority to Google via expert-authored or verified content, dedicated author pages and expert-reviewed content supported by citations schema. Outside of on-page content, Adela Ance, International SEO Expert, suggests that a brand’s overall reputation can affect Google rankings as well. As consumers demand more commitment to trusted and sustainable practices, any material published that can detract from a positive and transparent brand image could also affect a brand’s E-A-T. One way your content team can establish company transparency is through webinars, which, regardless of topic, inform a large audience on essential information. As Clémence Arthur, International SEO Expert points out, webinars are not only a great way to build authority with strategic SEO content. They’re also a great way to make your online material more immersive and engaging, allowing your brand to speak directly and personally to its audience. 06. Video content Key takeaway: Start prioritizing video content by embedding videos in written content and devising a wider plan to get your videos ranking. Many companies overlook the game-changing SEO potential of video content, even when they already use videos as part of their marketing strategy. However, according to Yana Arad Raduzky, SEO Domain Expert, videos can be an easy win for SEO. “One of my greatest ROI successes was recycling paid ads promoting an RPG game into evergreen SEO content for YouTube and Google,” she says. Two key indicators show us that video could have a big future on SERPs: Video rich snippets appear as the top result for a growing number of user intents, especially on mobile search . In July 2021, Google announced automated identification of parts within a video, meaning that more videos will have the extended snippet showing ‘key moments” (or, specific chapters within the video). Video rich results take up a lot of SERP real estate. If you see a video tops the results page, Google likely has identified video as the most relevant content form for the query. This hints that another well-optimized video will have the best chance to rank, too. Following the pre-launch of YouTube Shorts in 2020, Google added a "Short Videos" carousel to mobile SERPs featuring clips from TikTok and Instagram Reels. Shorts are a new product, so it makes sense that Google makes them more visible on the mobile SERP to ensure their success. Let’s also not forget that Gen Z prefers to use video-first platforms, like TikTok, over traditional search engines like Google to identify and consume intent-driven content. 07. International SEO Key takeaway: To win international SEO, you need to go beyond translating keywords . International SEO is not a short-term strategy, Like other SEO strategies, scaling globally takes time and involves constant tracking and reporting. That’s why you should seriously consider if international SEO fits your marketing strategy and if you have the resources to do it properly. If you do want to dip your toes into localization, you’ll first need to decide if your audience needs localized content. You can get your answer by combining geo-specific competitor research with keyword research to understand how your target audience searches and behaves online. For example, if you’re targeting an Indian market, you may consider localizing your content for a Hindi-speaking population. But through your research, you may find that Indian consumers want English content, and that your translations would be in vain. According to Marieke Ehlers, International SEO Expert, the only way to win at International SEO is to localize everything along your site’s customer journey. Nothing turns off a potential customer more than arriving at your site via a blog post in the local language, only to be sent to a pricing page that isn’t. That may mean re-thinking where to start with your SEO research. While Google has a hold on search all over the world, that doesn’t mean you should disregard local search engines, too.. In Korea, for example, you might see pages behave differently in Google compared to Naver, the local equivalent. Once you gain international visitors, make sure you adapt images, videos and other multimedia to match local needs. A great example is the German Wix homepage, which includes an image of an actual person, rather than a product, since the German audience proved to respond more to this. 08. Site hierarchy Key takeaway: Make sure your internal linking strategy reflects the importance of site hierarchy—if you get that right, you’ll show your search engines your authority where it matters. Since site hierarchy is one way to show Google authority on a topic, you should identify your most important pages. According to Nitzan Papirov Eiges, Technical SEO Team Lead, the Pareto principle is a great way to understand what percentage of pages should be your authoritative ones. This ~20% (following the principle) will represent the pinnacle of your expertise—and you want Google to see these pages. The rest of your pages will support these top 20%, through internal linking. While you can show your authority in several ways, internal linking, sends a clear signal to both Google and your users about how your content fits together. To learn more about creating a strategy for your site, check out this internal linking webinar featuring SEO consultant and co-founder of Zyppy Cyrus Shepard as he delves into a recent case study on 23 million internal links. Two more ways to improve your authoritative content is to make sure: Your main menu (and its links) is consistent across your site pages. The menu, header and footer includes your most important links, as they will become the most linked to. 09. Backlinks Key takeaway: Focus on a diverse set of high-quality backlinks that support your site’s goals. Speaking of linking, the importance of backlinking and the best way to secure them is a practice that’s constantly evolving. “Backlinks are one of the more essential aspects of optimizing a site to gain the online presence and credibility it wants to achieve,” says Ophyr Hanan from the SEO Outreach Team. “The world of earning high-quality backlinks is a crucial and inseparable part of SEO.” While on-page SEO focuses on optimizing the pages themselves, off-site SEO focuses on increasing traffic to your website and improving your online reputation through backlinks. Since backlinks help search engines decipher how authoritative your site is, the more high-quality and relevant backlinks your site gains from reliable websites, the more likely a search engine will rank it high on the SERP for relevant queries and keywords. A high-quality backlink comes from a related page with original or well-reported content, from a reputable site. For example, if you published an original report about your site's SEO practices and related, reputable SEO sites (e.g. SEMrush's blog) cited the page in a round-up of the best SEO teams in enterprise marketing, there's a good chance Google would consider that a high-quality backlink. According to Sharon Greenfeld, Outreach and App Store Optimization Team Lead, the first step to gaining quality backlinks is regularly publishing and updating your site’s content. The next, more challenging part comes when you must audit your site’s backlink profile and rid it of duplicate or low-quality referral links. While Google suggests that toxic links don’t hold any weight on your site’s ranking (meaning you can just ignore them), you can still “Disavow” spammy links, or signal to Google that it should ignore them, too. While many of your backlinks may come organically, you can actively reach out to high-quality sites and seek strategic backlinks. To learn more about developing a backlinking strategy, read Wix SEO Hub’s Backlinking 101 guide, or their guide to getting started with backlinking . Check out Ophyr Hanan sharing her story as an SEO specialist with Semrush. 10. Conversion rate optimization Key takeaway: Not every page should convert, but when it can, make sure it does it well. Your conversion rate can impact how Google views your site and how well you can meet your user’s intent. “Google cares that your site is accurate and reliable,” says Amanda Weiner, Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) Specialist. “Of course, it [also] doesn’t hurt that if your elements are spot on, visitors will spend more time on your pages, clicking through to more inner pages. This ultimately shows Google that your site is what they were looking for.” Best practices for improving conversion rates include having clear cut buttons, text that explains exactly what you sell, plus images that support said text. 11. Google updates & rank volatility Key takeaway: Turn the focus from major algorithmic events to tracking ranking and behavior trends over time. SEO doesn’t sleep. While your rankings may have fluctuated after major Google algorithm updates , Mordy Oberstein, Head of SEO Branding, thinks these updates are becoming seemingly less powerful over time. Instead, the algorithm is heading towards more consistent, if not “real-time” updates. In October 2021, Oberstein found that there was a 68% increase in the instances (i.e. number of days in the year) that presented significant levels of rank volatility (i.e. the number of positions sites tended to move up or down the SERP). However, the actual rank movement was less drastic . Much of the volatility experienced in the past represented a series of rank reversals. Meaning, Google changes the URL’s SERP position only to reverse its ranking days or weeks later (with a possible reversal after that, and so on,). At times, Google tests new positions for URLs of a given keyword, reversing the rank to its former position only to release an official core update that cements the initial ranking change Google. Oberstein adds, “Google constantly changes the SERP rankings, testing new constructs (hence the reversals) and deciding on what makes sense for the query. At the same time, Google seemingly relies less on major algorithmic landmarks (i.e., core updates) to alter SERP rankings. Meaning, we seem headed towards Google making consistent (though perhaps less dramatic) and continuous ranking changes. This may sound like an outlandish concept, but remember Google’s Penguin went from infrequent specific releases to real-time functioning."

  • In a world full of copycats, network effects set your website apart

    Turn your ideas into a website you love with Wix →  When you’re creating a website , investing in great design and top-notch products is essential. But in today’s world, anyone can undercut your prices, copy your design or even clone your products. To set yourself apart, you need an advantage that can’t be copied overnight. You need an edge that grows stronger over time. You need strong network effects. I’ve spent years working with internet apps and online businesses, and I can confidently say that network effects are one of the most powerful yet underrated drivers of rapid growth and long-term customer loyalty. The idea comes from consumer software, but it works brilliantly for websites, too.  Let’s break it down. What do I mean by “network effects”? Network effects refer to the idea that a product or service becomes exponentially more valuable as more people use it. Take Instagram or WhatsApp as examples: the more friends and family who join, the more useful and engaging the app becomes. In the context of websites, the more people who use your site and contribute to it, the more valuable it becomes to other visitors (and the stronger your brand grows as a result).  Competing by utilizing network effects means going beyond building a static site that competes on things like product selection or price alone (which are easy to replicate). It’s about creating a dynamic ecosystem of users who actively bring others to your site and make the experience better for everyone. The four loops behind creating a network effect online  Going one layer deeper, network effects are fueled by four loops that play off of one another:   The viral loop The social loop The compulsion loop The data loop 01. The viral loop: designing a shareable experience    When most people hear “viral,” they think of a social media post that blows up overnight. But viral loops aren’t just about posting gimmicky videos in hopes of amassing a bunch of likes. They’re about designing an entire experience where users naturally bring in other new users, creating a self-propelling engine of growth. Take Groupon’s early days as an example. Remember when you could only unlock their discounts if enough people jumped in on the deal? To get the savings, you had  to share the offer with other people. You were, in essence, acting as a Groupon ambassador. That’s a viral loop in action. For your website, think about how to encourage organic sharing. For example: Offer group-based rewards  or unlockable perks for inviting others. Set up referral systems  that reward both the referrer and the new participant with tangible benefits. Publish quizzes, free tools and other resources that naturally get shared because they’re genuinely useful or fun. Create ‘utility loops’ where using the site brings in new users, like sending a document to sign or sharing a booking link. Recipients become users too, and often return for their own needs, fueling growth.  Hand out a limited number of early-access invites per user so they can share with their friends (note: people tend to act quickly on opportunities that feel exclusive). Give customers a voice in product design by allowing them to vote or suggest ideas, then share their input to inspire others to participate.  02. The social loop: turning visitors into active participants Websites that encourage more active participation are likely to be more sticky. According to Playwire , sites with a focus on problem-solving (e.g., tutorial sites), discussions (e.g., community pages) or games and interactivity have significantly higher session duration times than those that are more transactional in nature (e.g., news sites).  It’s why sites like TripAdvisor have fared so well. In the world of online travel, where everyone is essentially selling the same flights and hotels at roughly the same prices, TripAdvisor stood out by building a system that encouraged users to leave reviews and share their own travel tips. Over time, the site shifted from being a one-way content destination to a lively community that travelers returned to again and again. That repeat engagement made it much easier for TripAdvisor to drive bookings and slash customer acquisition costs.  For your site, the goal is the same: keep visitors coming back and get them involved in making the site better for the next person. Experiment with things like:  Inviting user reviews, testimonials or even Q&A on product and information pages. (You could even make the review process fun by giving participants levels or badges they’ll want to show off on social media.) Providing interactive spaces (such as forum threads, discussion boards, polls ) where users can add input and see each other’s contributions. Embedding mini-polls  on product pages, where customers can answer questions like “Which color should we launch next?” Offering a space where visitors can share their own photos featuring your products, such as outfits they’ve styled using your pieces. Creating post-action sharing prompts  that make it easy for visitors to share reviews, quiz results or outfit creations, and reward the best posts with prizes or leaderboard recognition.

The compulsion loop: keeping things fresh    Why do we compulsively check our phones and “doomscroll” through TikTok every day? It’s because we never know what we’re going to see next, and each little surprise hits our brain with a dopamine rush. That cycle of surprise and delight keeps us coming for more, time and time again. Similarly, when it comes to your website, visitors are much more likely to come back if you give them something new to look forward to. This doesn't mean obsessively redesigning your website every month. Rather, think about Costco. When you walk into a Costco, you’ll notice that Costco keeps staple goods in the back of the store, and puts high-impulse, limited-time offers up front. As a result, shoppers who stop by for their usual items often walk out with an unexpected purchase. Shoppers remember that feeling of surprise and delight, and look forward to experiencing that again in the near future. You can start generating that addictive habit online by trying things like:  Rotating your featured products or services regularly. Take advantage of the hero section or other “above the fold” elements of your site to draw attention to the most seasonal or highly anticipated offers.  Introducing a sense of surprise , such as flash sales, limited-time bundles or exclusive product drops. Offering fresh, engaging content  via a blog, forum, sales section or a “new arrivals” section (as an example) that keeps visitors checking in regularly. Promoting weekend specials that create a ritual where visitors know that every Friday bring a surprise drop, and every Sunday brings a bundle deal (as an example). Including a mystery gift with every purchase , changing weekly, so customers can’t help but wonder, ‘What will I get this time?’” 04. The data loop: building a “smarter” experience   The data loop is an iterative process of gathering data, analyzing it and using it to adapt your site. In other words, you’re creating a website that grows smarter with every visitor interaction. The more your visitors use your site, the better the experience becomes for them and for future users. Amazon is an obvious example here. The platform factors in user behaviors, product reviews, seller performance and a number of other signals to predict what visitors will do and want to see. This, in turn, improves their product recommendations, pricing strategies and other personalization efforts across the marketplace.  Over time, your site doesn’t just serve all customers. It becomes a place that’s customized to their  needs.  For your site: Use website analytics  to identify what your visitors are clicking on, how long they’re staying and where they might be dropping off. Show relevant recommendations , reminders or offers based on past activity. If you use a solution like Wix, you can leverage AI product recommendations that suggest products based on a visitor’s past behaviors. Surface the right products or messages to the right users at the right time with smart FAQs, context-aware chatbots, adaptive content  and apps like Twik . Each of these tools use real user data to predict their next move and to personalize the online experience accordingly.

  • CRO tests that we've tried and have made the biggest impact on the Wix website

    Build your website in minutes, try Wix for free today → The thing about owning a website is that your work is never truly done. At Wix, we never leave our website alone.  My job itself is fully dedicated to testing different elements of our site. Whether we’re dealing with a landing page, product page—or this very blog that you’re looking at, my role as CRO manager is to question everything.  Over the years, we’ve run multiple experiments across our site (with varying success). So, I thought I’d take a moment to reflect on a few of our learnings, in case they’re useful for your own testing. What is CRO testing? CRO testing, or conversion rate optimization testing, is about trying different techniques on your website to see which one gets more visitors to take action (such as signing up, making a purchase or clicking a button). It often uses A/B testing, where two versions of a page are compared, or multivariate testing, where more than two versions of a page are tested at once. The goal is to make small changes that improve results and convert more visitors without needing more traffic. Create a website that gets results. Start with flexible web templates or use a professional website designer . How we approach CRO testing  Another quick note before we dive in: When it comes to picking what to test, we try our best to think about what will have the biggest impact. The bigger the impact, the more important the test.  That said, there are many other factors that influence how feasible an experiment is. For example, we need to know how quickly a change can be made and who else needs to be involved (after all, I’m not the only one working on our site, and even a minor change could interfere with someone else’s strategy). The other thing that’s considered: What are the defensive versus offensive tests we want to run? A defensive test is one that we might conduct to keep our site on-brand, well-ranking and functional. Maybe we notice that our design is outdated. In this case, we’re looking to make changes so that our site doesn’t underperform in the near future. A defensive test, for that matter, is considered successful if it doesn’t negatively harm our KPIs during the testing period.   Meanwhile, an offensive test is one that’s meant to drive more conversions (and, in turn, sales). This only works if we can nail intent. In order to see the improvements we want to see, we need to get into the heads of our visitors and understand what they’re looking for when they land on our site. An offensive test is considered successful if we see a significant lift in conversions during the testing period. Defensive CRO test Offensive CRO test Purpose  A test for optimizing the branding, SEO performance and/or functionality of a page  A test for improving the conversion rate of a page Frequently tested variables Content, design, navigation, backend code Content, design, navigation  Expected results No negative impact on performance or conversions A statistically significant increase in conversions Example Remove form from a page because it’s slowing down the site Add a new call-to-action to the hero fold  Once we’ve done our research and identified the who, what and why, then we’re ready to jump in with a plan. Related reading:  How to monetize a website   How to get your website on Google How to create and sell templates Experiment one: adding Google One Tap  One of our most successful offensive tests in terms of numbers involved Google One Tap.  If you’re not familiar, Google One Tap (“GOT” for short) allows users who are signed into their Google accounts to log in or sign up to Wix with one click, directly on the page. On one hand, this experiment is super basic and obvious; it cuts down signup time and makes the process seamless, leading to more conversions.  On the other hand, it’s more complicated than you’d think, given the sheer number of pages on our site. The test started with a few products pages and our homepage, where a significant number of first-time visitors sign up for Wix. Very early on, we saw positive results—namely, an uptick in signups. Once we realized its impact, we began rolling out GOT across Wix’s many, many pages. Time and time again, we saw the positive impact of this element, no matter the intent of the page. The full rollout involved many hands and careful monitoring of the results.  But overall, I love this test because the concept behind it is really so simple and purely CRO. If you can take away an obstacle to sign up, then more people are likely to convert.  Read also: In a world full of copycats, network effects set your website apart Experiment two: adding “Get Started” to the top of mobile pages  Another test that followed a similar principle as our GOT test involved adding a “Get Started” call-to-action (CTA) to the top of our mobile pages.  We used to only have a CTA hiding inside of the hamburger menu of our mobile site, as that was what contained all of our buttons. This also mirrored the experience on desktop, where the “Get Started” CTA appears in the same area as the rest of our menu items.  But, of course, on mobile, accessing the hamburger menu is an additional step that you don't have to take on desktop. The button doesn’t stand out to the naked eye.  Therefore, we took the “Get Started” button and put it in the part of the mobile menu that’s visible right away. In other words, you don’t have to click into anything to see it. We saw an immediate uplift in signups from our mobile pages.  The logic here is similar: make the signup process more accessible and reduce friction to improve overall conversions.  Our “flops” For every successful test, there are a dozen failed experiments. I would be remiss not to mention these failures, because even these have taught us a lot.  Many tests where we totally redid the look and feel of a page or an element of a page often showed flat results. There was no clear winner between version A and version B. Or, in some cases, the original version slightly outperformed the new version.  It taught us that sometimes, the small, simple elements make all the difference. In one instance, we spent months rethinking the design of one of our pages and making it more exciting and modern—only to find that it had absolutely no positive impact.  Safe to say, we were disappointed. Crushed, even. But it made us question the impact of design on behavior. While design is still essential, many design tests from that point on became less focused on CRO and more focused on simply highlighting our own brand language (with no expectations of positive CRO results).  This clarity, I would say, was still a win. It helped us recenter and realign our expectations.  Try, try and try again If you take anything away from this article, I hope it’s this: never stop trying things. Even if you “fail,” you will learn something.  Base your tests on data and plan them wisely, but don’t let perfectionism or the hope of only creating “winning” tests get in your way of trying.  Another important tip: Always make sure you have enough data to really make a decision. Don’t let a few visitors acting one way or another persuade you. You have to see the same behavior over and over again to truly determine a pattern, and to determine whether what you’ve changed has made an impact. With that, I’ll leave you to it. Get testing, and enjoy the insights you gain along the way.

  • Brand personality: How to make your brand stand out in a crowded market

    Find the perfect branding for your designs with Wixel → In the summer of 2020, I quit my corporate job in finance so I could use my skills and experience to provide marketing and fintech resources to entrepreneurs building their small businesses. When it was time to make a logo and design the rest of my branding , I knew it was important that I make that passion really clear. So, I created a brand personality that was bold, daring and innovative—and Small Business Startup Solutions was born. Creating a brand personality can help even the smallest business stand out. To start, think about the most admirable traits of your business: What adjectives would you choose to describe it if it were a person? Throughout this article, I’ll use my business's brand personality to represent the concept, plus detail how you can create your own with best practices on conveying it to the world. Emily Brown, Founder of Small Business Startup Solutions. Credit: Melissa Doak Photography What is a brand personality, and why does it matter? A brand personality is the personification of a business, acting as a framework for its brand identity . It’s how a company manifests its values and mission through its design language, communication style and actions. By attributing human characteristics to your business, you can connect with your target market and differentiate your business from the competition. Build your brand with the Wix Logo Maker . How to create a brand personality Use the following steps to develop your personality branding: Define your brand values Determine the dimension of your brand personality Identify your brand archetype Assemble a brand guide 01. Define your brand values Your brand values are your business’s reason for being. They are the beliefs and principles that guide its actions and decision-making. Your brand values will act as the core of your personality branding and should inform its development. For example, the brand values of Small Business Startup Solutions (SBSS) are entrepreneurship, innovation and social responsibility. Its brand manifesto is to “Grow the Local Economy.” I try to infuse that mission into everything, from my marketing to my business operations. 02. Determine the dimensions of your brand personality Since building a brand personality is a nuanced, complex process, it can help to first categorize your business. Jennifer Aakers’ five dimensions of brand personality offer a useful starting point. This model aligns brand personality traits with human characteristics that fit into one of five dimensions: excitement, sincerity, competence, sophistication and ruggedness. 03. Identify your brand archetype The brand archetype system gets more specific. In this framework, a brand can fit into twelve main archetypes: The Idealist commits to its deeply-rooted values and beliefs. The Realist prioritizes logic and competency. The Warrior orients towards goals. The Caregiver nurtures with compassion and altruism. The Seeker looks for new perspectives, and takes an individualistic trail-blazing approach. The Lover focuses on building relationships. The Revolutionary defies convention and looks for cutting-edge solutions to deeply engrained problems. The Creator expresses and invents. The Sage values reflection, and often takes an analytical approach to truth seeking. The Jester leads with a lighthearted, playful and spontaneous tone. The Magician intuits, inspires and provides insight. The Ruler values power and demonstrates leadership. 04. Assemble a brand guide A brand style guide —a catalog of a brand’s assets—ensures that all your marketing clearly, cohesively and consistently reflects your brand personality. This can also include brand identity examples. The branding world refers to these as the three C's: Clarity : A clear, well-defined brand strategy ensures that target audiences can understand all brand aspects and messages. Consistency : Ensure that your brand voice and visual identity complement one another to reinforce your brand personality. Consistent brand elements help your target market recognize and trust you. To remain cohesive, stay within the brand guide. Credibility : A credible brand is trustworthy, reliable and reputable. You must ensure that all your business actions reflect your brand personality. Be transparent about your business practices and deliver on your marketing promises to increase your brand's credibility. Let’s use the brand guide for SBSS as a style guide example . It features my mission and values, as well as my logo, brand colors , typography and on-brand images that fit the personality. While the slate-gray, black and white give my branding a modern and competent look, the yellow emphasizes the “Excited” aspect of my brand personality and symbolizes the bright light of innovation. I use active imagery to demonstrate its “Explorer” brand archetype. Whenever I use photography that does not feature myself, I strive to feature diverse subjects so everyone knows that my brand is warm and welcoming to all. 4 brand personality examples To help you better understand brand personalities and how to develop your brand loyalty around one, we’ve identified four small businesses that fit into Aakers’ brand personality dimensions. 01. Exciting brand personality example: FlipSide Event Cleanup To appeal to event hosts, FlipSide Event Cleanup developed a spirited and energetic brand personality. The spunky tone of voice and crafty logo demonstrate that vitality. When paired with the coal-gray, the refreshing mint-green brand color, represents how the company take event spaces from filthy to “sparkling clean.” Their website and social media emphasize their commitment to sustainability and their enthusiasm for cleaning. 02. Competent brand personality example: Little Bags by Anna The teenage founder of Little Bags by Anna gave her business a competent brand personality so potential customers would recognize it as a reputable and reliable business despite her young age. The business exudes competency, primarily through its ethical business practices. Anna makes her bags out of reclaimed textiles and donates a sizable portion of her revenue to literacy and food security nonprofits. 03. Sophisticated brand personality example: The Natural Aesthetic Medspa When I worked with The Natural Aesthetic Medspa to design their website, we emphasized their brand personality's sophisticated nature with high-quality imagery and an elevated tone of voice. The blush-pink brand color gives it a feminine edge to appeal to the female-heavy clientele and the calligraphic typography establishes it as high-end. 04. Rugged brand personality example: Music By Lucas Brown Lucas Brown is a soulful singer-songwriter inspired by nature and off-roading and musically influenced by John Mayer and Ed Sheeran. We worked together to give his online presence a rugged brand personality. The darker tone of his site establishes the artist’s depth and masculinity. All the imagery features Brown outside, often surrounded by trees.

  • Sonic branding: What is it and how it can speak volumes for your brand

    Find the perfect branding for your designs with Wixel → Any ‘90s kid knows the original Nokia ringtone, AOL’s “You got mail” sound or the Disney intro theme. Sound is powerful and can trigger memory, instantly transporting you (even for a millisecond) to the memory and feeling of every time you’ve heard it. According to Spotify’s annual 2021 Culture Next Report : “63% of millennials feel that audio is the most immersive form of media and 65% of Gen Z agrees that audio helps them experience a situation more deeply.” And as experienced from the Apple iPhone ringtone or even the pleasant song your dishwasher makes when it’s finished a cycle, it’s also a surefire way to grab your attention. As brands fight for our eyeballs on every screen available, they’re shifting towards asking audiences to listen rather than look. And audiences are increasingly receptive: Edison Research’s findings in The Infinite Dial show that 73% of the U.S. 12+ population (an estimated 209 million people) have listened to online audio in the last month, up from 68% in 2021. With the wireless headphones market trajectory believed to reach $45.7 billion by 2026 and more brands using artificial intelligence to generate realistic sounding voices for ads and content , it’s no wonder 2022 is shaping up to be the year of the “sonic boom.” As the industry evolves, brands need to keep up and reach their audiences in the spaces where they are, in the way they want to be reached. Everything from social sonic entities to multimedia experiences in the metaverse presents audio opportunities for brands : “Audio is essential to navigation and communication in a socially vibrant and dynamic virtual setting, [and it’s] critical for immersion and believability in digital realms.” With a highly-receptive audience and multi-billion dollar market to bust into, the potential for brands to push creative boundaries across a range of sonic platforms is unparalleled. But how? Start with creating a sonic identity that’s aligned with your overall brand identity, from the way you create a logo to your social posts. Here we will explore what sonic branding is, why it matters and how to leverage auditory opportunities to reach your audience in new and meaningful ways. What is sonic branding? Sonic branding, sometimes referred to as audio branding, is the strategic use of sound as a part of your brand identity. It’s much more than just a little ditty, it’s the culmination of rhythms, songs, tones, cadence, voices—and even silence. As Daniel M Jackson, author of Sonic Branding: An Introduction, says in an interview with Transform , “Most brands still think sonic branding is a jingle or sonic logo rather than a whole suite of harmonious sounds that bind a brand identity.” Think of the science of sensory marketing: The unmistakable ASMR sound of Pop Rocks, the squeaky scribble of a new Sharpie or the literal snap, crackle and pop of Rice Krispies—immediately you can picture the product. Effective sonic branding uses sonic triggers to grab listeners’ attention and presents a unique opportunity for brands to build meaningful connections through the power of sound. Whether you’re a self-creator, entrepreneur or just getting started, thinking about the sounds associated with your brand right from the start is key. It isn’t just reserved for enterprise-level businesses, it should be considered for every type of branding. Just like outlined in your brand voice and visual identity, your sonic identity needs to be aligned with your core values and purpose. Is your brand tech-savvy and forward-thinking, or naturalistic and organic? These are questions that can help outline each aspect of your sonic brand identity. Why sonic branding matters We all have sounds that elicit certain responses or emotions, many of which are universal. When you hear a fire alarm or a doorbell, you know what to do. What about the sound of waves crashing on the beach, birds chirping or the crackling of a warm fireplace? Or hearing that song on the radio that instantly reminds you of your ex, how does it make you feel? Each of these specific sounds can form echoic memories , or auditory sensory memory—a type of memory that stores audio information (sound). Sonic branding can harness this power and create an emotional impact and connection to audiences, boosting both brand awareness and loyalty. Through associations, customers will recall your product or service just by a sound. Sounds forge a 360-degree brand experience. When you build a brand , you must know your target audience and sonic branding can help you access who you are trying to reach. Something as simple as the background music in a “how-to” video, to the button click sound on your app can impact more than just the user’s experience, it also impacts their feeling and mood. Sonic branding can also be a valuable tool when companies decide to rebrand or refresh. For example, the NBC chime, a sequence of three tones, has existed since the early 1930s and is still associated with the brand today. The sound mark has gone through a range of interactions and updates over the years, as has their iconic and colorful peacock logo—both are always recognizable, regardless of the updates. Having a solid sonic identity empowers brands to maintain their familiarity with customers, while also updating their offering. While all branding efforts aim at evoking emotional responses, sonic branding is a compelling way to shape a customer’s experience through sound. In addition, brands can become a part of pop culture, become intertwined with music or even go viral on a TikTok sound—like the unmistakable Cisco hold music . Or Dreya Mac, whose viral lyrics to ‘Own Brand Freestyle’ sparked a dance challenge and led to her breakout hit song, launching her career as one of Vogue’s musicians to rule 2022 . This highlights the influence of sound and the viral nature of it. Sharing on social gains momentum and every time it’s heard it can be more impactful and influential. According to the official TikTok business account , 100% sound-on campaigns on TikTok are 2.2% more likely to increase brand awareness than ads on platforms that don’t use sound. According to the 2021 Kantar Report for TikTok for Business: “TikTok takes sound to a new level of effectiveness for brands that want to break through, be heard, and bring their message home to a worldwide community. By taking a sound-first approach, businesses can create a message that truly resonates—and that truly delivers the results that they need. TikTok has changed the social platform, where video content is curated around a specific song or sound, and not the other way around.” Research also shows that 33% of adults under the age of 35 feel more favorable towards brands with a sonic identity. Sonic experiences are key to cultivating emotional connections with audiences. As Hillary Taymour, Founder, Collina Strada, believes: “Brands need to create more exciting experiences for audiences, always re-invent and be in spaces where your audience are.” When is sonic branding relevant As part of your overall cat, consider how sonic branding fits in with your visual aesthetic. Think about your sonic identity can bring your brand story and brand messaging to life. You can use audio branding in: Podcasts Vlogs Any kind of video or audio content Recorded advertisements Script writing and voice artistry Social media Radio and streaming audio Playlists in brick and mortar stores Curated playlists Customer service hold music Website interactions or button clicks Product sounds and design Remember, with enough exposure, these sounds can become part of your consumer's subconscious. Benefits of sonic branding Emotional connection/impact on mood: Sound is visceral. By selecting the right music or sounds for your brand, you will be able to trigger an intentional emotional response from your customers. For example, the annual Christmas commercials that John Lewis Department Store rolls out each year are ​​almost guaranteed to make us cry as they purposely pull on our heart strings around the holiday season, reinforcing the brand's messaging and association to positive and familial emotions. Or McDonald’s quintessential “I’m lovin it” jingle, made famous by Justin Timberlake back in 2003. This tune also has served as the brand’s catchy slogan , forever associated with the “ba da ba ba ba” vocal hook. This jingle was used as part of a brand transformation, to restore the brand’s image, reach new audiences and refresh the feeling associated with the fast food chain. Two decades later, ​​the company’s longest-running marketing campaign is still relevant and evokes a youthful, happy feeling (and of course, a craving for fries). Attention-grabbing: Consumers are bombarded with noise (both literally and metaphorically), and too much visual stimulation can be overwhelming. Effective sonic branding can cut through the noise, making it easier for customers to hear (and see, and feel) your brand. Familiarity: Like a trusted friend, most of us, on some level, prefer what we’re already familiar with—because we feel more comfortable. In branding and marketing, if customers already know your brand they may be more likely to purchase from you, and return. As George Costanza famously said in an episode of Seinfeld, “I’m like a commercial jingle. First, it's a little irritating. Then you hear it a few times. You’re humming it in the shower. By the third date, it’s ‘Buy Mennen!’” Increase brand trust: Similar to familiarity, exposure helps build trust. If the sounds of your brand provide audible reminders to customers, they will likely drive brand recall, and in turn foster brand trust. Added assets to brand identity: Your brand identity encapsulates both the visual and non-visual aspects of your business. From your logo and brand name, to your typography and color palette, outlining your sonic identity in line with all of your brand collateral will strengthen your overall brand identity and your brand identity examples . In addition, each audible touchpoint must be a holistic part of your overall identity. Your sonic identity is not just limited to a sonic logo or singular sound, it is the entire collection of recognizable and strategic sounds combined throughout brand communication and user experience. As entrepreneur and author Gary Vaynerchuk says , “Sonic branding is the audio equivalent of a brand’s username. If a company plays their tag alongside advertisements or content that match their brand’s positioning, eventually that audio tag by itself will conjure up the intended feelings around that brand.” Boosts engagement: Integrating sound into your branding efforts creates a more interactive experience. Think about it, if people hum your music, or your song trends on TikTok, this increases the likelihood that they will search for—and more importantly— share it. Learn about the color theory to nail your brand's color scheme. Sonic branding examples HBO First launched in 1993, HBO’s opening sequence (officially dubbed the static angel), set the stage for an almost-Pavlovian response to entertainment, creating a mental cue that it’s time to relax and enjoy the show. Even now, when you hear the sound, what TV show intro do you hear right after? HBO’s branding has changed the game , paving the way for many entertainment companies like Netflix to use their own sonic logos (“tudum”) as an intro to what follows next. Intel Arguably one of the best and longest running sonic logos of all time, Intel’s sonic identity is one of the original trailblazers, first used in 1994. For a product that is rarely seen (since Intel manufactures the internal parts of computers and devices), their brand recognition is particularly impressive. As Jamie Masters, Head of Audio Branding Strategy at Adelphoi Music , explained to Shots , “Thanks to all that exposure, over so many years, the Intel bongs began to be recognized as a sonic logo in their own right. And that above all was what impressed the marketing industry: at a time when the traditional sung jingle was beginning to sound passé, Intel appeared to offer a less corny, more concise, but equally effective alternative.” The intel sonic identity showcases innovation with simplicity and timelessness. What’s more, the brand created a sound that is easy to re-record, repurpose or refresh—if needed. This distinct sound can be played with other instruments, sounds or versions and would be recognizable nonetheless. So in 2020, when Intel unveiled their updated brand identity, including a new version of their famous “bong sound” sonic logo, they were able to harness the meaningful associations they’ve established with their audience. As Karen Walker, senior vice president and chief marketing officer of Intel explained in an Intel blog post , “We make a leap into the future, with a transformed Intel brand that reflects our essential role in creating technology that moves the world forward.” Mastercard Mastercard sonic branding is one of the best examples of how a brand used sound to build trust. As Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing and communications officer at Mastercard, says, “Sonic identity literally adds a new dimension to the customer experience. [It] reaches people’s mind and hearts through other senses—the sense of hearing.” The brand has built an audio strategy that is just as important as their visual one. When Mastercard debuted their sonic brand identity, they created a “comprehensive sound architecture that signifies the latest advancements of the brand.” As they imagined it, it’s the equivalent of their iconic red and yellow circles logo and reinforces the brand at every interaction. Karo Pharma Stockholm-based Karo Pharma partnered with Wix user and creative sound agency Unmute to rebrand with a new sonic identity, developed to “add depth and emotion to the brand in ways that words and images can't.” The sonic logo begins with three subtle ticks followed by a harmonic fade for a smooth transition from beginning to end. The result is simple, direct and uplifting—exemplifying the very essence of the health-driven company. Singapore Airlines In 2021, Singapore Airlines unveiled a new sonic identity across every brand touchpoint, including boarding and landing on their aircrafts, in their airport lounges and even on Spotify. The airline collaborated with sonic branding agency, DLMDD , to curate a 30-minute audio suite representative of Singapore Airlines brand values. In an interview with Drum , Max De Lucia, founder and client director of DLMDD shares: “The brief, from Singapore Airlines and TBWA (SIA’s creative agency), was: ‘how do we translate the visual world of SIA and the Batik Motif into the world of sound?’ That immediately got us thinking if we could build an instrument with the technology to turn the visual frequencies of these stunning flowers native to Singapore into sonic frequencies that a world-class composer could use to compose the ‘Symphony of Flowers." The result: a recognizable and immersive sound that bridges the visual look to its sonic branding. Taking into account the experience of air travel, and all the places in which sound can impact a traveler’s journey, SIA’s sonic identity supports the brand while keeping the traveler at its core. Sonic branding tips Here are a few tips to consider when creating your sonic identity. 1. Keep it simple. If you try to use too many notes or too many complicated sounds, it’ll make it much harder to stick in prospective customers’ minds. 2. Make it memorable. Notice how some tunes simply get stuck in your head? (We’re looking at your “Baby Shark”). Those constantly repetitive sounds—known as earworms, can pop into our minds at random, or be triggered by specific associations, emotions or experiences. 3. Use original sounds. Try to avoid using sounds that may have other associations. In addition, be sure to do a quick sonic brand audit. Make sure there aren’t specific sounds that carry other meanings for Gen Z or even Baby Boomers, or perhaps trigger the opposite response of what you’re intending. 4. Differentiate your brand. Be sure to take a look at your competitors to not only see what works for them, but how your brand can stand out. 5. Create appropriate sounds for relevant social platforms. Be sure to pay attention to the specific requirements of each platform in order to sound your best and reach your audience most effectively. For example, when using TikTok, sound is an essential part of the platform’s experience. Whether this means incorporating trending sounds, creating your own or even using specific songs, the messaging will come across loud and clear. Remember in 2020 when Ocean Spray suddenly went viral on TikTok and got a major brand boost thanks to Nathan Apodaca ? Not to mention, Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” was exposed to a whole new generation. 6. Consider the context for the sound. Think about the entirety of the sound, how it starts, how it ends and the overall connection to the product or the behavior. You may want to anchor the development of the sound around that product interaction first and foremost, and then build an audio branding landscape around that. The sound, the music and all the branding needs to work well with core messaging. Every sound, click, tone, swipe or beep is not just a simple tactic, it’s part of the experience and the sound imagery that tells the story. 7. Don’t be afraid to play. Though your sonic moment should be short and snappy, that doesn’t mean your creative process has to be. As Rob Goodman, Webby Award-nominated podcast host of Now What? explains from his own personal experience: “I’ll often anchor the soundtrack around a single moment of sound and then build out from there, or I’ll do the reverse and develop something longer and then take a snippet to create a moment of sound. In the end, we can pull out three to five sounds to use as interstitial moments throughout the audio experience. Each sound is unique but connected, and creates an authentic musical brand signature.” 8. Think outside that radio dial. When you think of Chiquita Bananas, what comes to mind? Are you humming the original tune from the 1940s commercial? While consumers may not listen to the radio or see TV like they did in the mid-century, they do listen to Spotify. So, the iconic brand found a way to reintroduce this tune in 2020 by placing scannable codes onto their famous blue banana stickers so that customers could tune into playlists featuring five remixed versions of the original jingle. Think beyond the jingle for your sonic branding moments and use it as an invitation to engage with both new and old customers alike.
