Today In Communication History
On this date in 1926, The National Broadcasting Company (NBC) was created by the Radio Corporation of America (RCA). The U.S. Navy had essentially controlled radio technology for years as a matter of national defense during and, for a while, after World War I. In 1919 it turned over to RCA the American Marconi radio stations it had appropriated during the war, making the company an instant radio giant. RCA had ambitions to tie up its patchwork of local stations into a national network, but it was hamstrung by the relatively poor audio quality available to it, leasing telegraph lines from Western Union. AT&T wouldn’t allow anyone else to use its vastly superior telephone lines. AT&T sold its WEAF station (and another in Washington, D.C.) to RCA for $1 million in a deal that allowed RCA to lease AT&T’s phone lines, a huge audio upgrade. RCA’s new division, the National Broadcasting Company, was formed on this day in 1926 and officially launched with programming on Nov. 15.
So?
He said it first….’Television’.
In 1900, the term ‘television‘ is coined by Constantin Perskyi at the International Electricity Congress, part of the 1900 Paris Exhibition.

Digital/Mobile Research
MOBILE NOW HAS THE MAJORITY OF EMAIL CLICKS
Despite a slip in click-to-open rates, mobile accounted for a majority (53%) of clicks for emails sent by Yesmail clients in Q2, according to the company’s latest quarterly report. That’s the first time mobile has contributed a majority of email clicks (up from 46% in Q1), and is supported by Experian Marketing Services data also showing mobile accounting for a majority of email clicks among its clients in Q2.
Not surprisingly, as mobile increases its share of email clicks, its impact on email-driven orders and revenues also grows. In Q2, email reached 32% of email-driven revenues, up from 24% a year earlier and 18% the year before that (Q2 2014).
Likewise, mobile grew to account for 42% of email-driven orders, up from 33% in Q2 2015 and 22% in Q2 2014. The growth has exclusively come from smartphones: whereas in Q2 2014 tablets (12.5%) topped smartphones (9.9%) in share of orders, results for this past quarter indicate that smartphones are now driving almost three times more orders than tablets (30.9% vs. 10.9% share).
Mobile’s smaller share of revenues (32%) than orders (42%) suggests that average order values remain higher for desktop than mobile traffic. That makes sense in light of Monetate data that consistently finds e-commerce average order values being higher on desktops than on smartphones and tablets.
In other highlights from the Yesmail report:
► Almost two-thirds (65.9%) of emails deployed in Q2 were responsive, representing slowed growth from Q1 (63.2%);
► Active subscribers now receive 33.5% more emails than they did 2 years ago; and
► Overall open (14.6%), click (1.4%) and click-to-open (9.7%) rates were all down from the year-earlier period.
About the Data: The Q2 2016 data is based on an analysis of almost 7 billion emails deployed during the quarter.
For the record:
► Email is always read first on mobile for an average of 25.6%. 40% aged 14-18 will always read emails on mobile first, 29% for ages 19 – 34 and 8% of the group of 56 – 67. – Adestra “Consumer Adoption & Usage Study” (2016)

Retailers Need to Think Big To Have A Killer Loyalty Program
Just because a consumer joins a loyalty program doesn’t mean she’s active in it.
Loyalty programs have become an important marketing tool for retailers, and most companies entice shoppers to join these programs by offering rewards. But these incentives may not be enough to keep consumers satisfied and happy that they joined it in the first place. Retailers may need to think bigger, and more long-term.
Just because a consumer joins a company’s loyalty program doesn’t mean she’s active in it. Research from Bond Brand Loyalty, in partnership with Visa, found that the average internet user in North America belongs to about 13 loyalty programs for companies in various industries. Yet members are only actively participating in about half of the initiatives they have signed up for.
Perhaps consumers feel they aren’t getting enough out of some loyalty programs to continually participate in them, and retailers may need to change that. Some already have.
Take Sephora for example. The retailer’s loyalty program has an immense following, especially among beauty junkies. The program is simple: consumers who are interested start off at the Beauty Insider level, which is free to join—and every dollar spent earns them a point. VIB is the next level, and shoppers need to spend a minimum of $350 annually to reach it. Sephora’s VIB Rouge membership is its most elite, and to reach that, consumers would have to spend a minimum of $1,000 annually. As consumers climb further up the ladder to VIB Rouge status, they are met with more exclusive rewards like a private hotline and invitations to exclusive events. And although Sephora has been successful with its loyalty program, the retailer has taken things a step further. Sephora recently introduced its Rewards Bazaar, where loyalty program members have access to new rewards—including samples, services and one-of-a-kind experiences—every Tuesday and Thursday. Some of these rewards include customer makeovers, which barely cost the company anything since their in-house makeup artists perform them. Other rewards are more high-end and limited, like a master makeup class at Anastasia Beverly Hills, or a Tory Burch gift set that includes a bag, wallet and perfume, among other things.
An initiative such as this—basically surprising and delighting customers—can boost brand perception. And an influx of rewards, especially those that are more tailored and personalized, can keep loyalty program participation going. A survey from loyalty marketing research and education practice Colloquy found that more than half of respondents who had joined a program in the past 12 months did so because they were able to earn points or miles on their purchases. Nearly as many had received a product or service offer. And 75% of respondents said they stayed in the loyalty program because the rewards and offers were relevant to them.
On the whole, the majority of US marketers intend to allocate more of their budgets to customer loyalty next year, research from multichannel loyalty and analytics company CrowdTwist and Brand Innovators revealed. In addition, about 13% said they anticipate significant increases in spending on such programs. According to the data, more than half of respondents said they plan to put more dollars into their loyalty programs next year. Some 44% said they will somewhat increase loyalty budgets, and 13% plan to significantly. Only a mere 4% said they anticipate lowering investment.
Why Millennials Are Buying Gift Cards For Themselves
Young folks have found a new use for refillable gift cards. They are buying them for themselves.A new report issued this week by analyst firm Mercator Advisory Group found a big jump in purchase of these “retailer-specific” cards among millennials. According to Bob Sullivan writing in Credit.com, “Nearly 3-in-5 young adult respondents indicated they bought them during the previous year, up from less than half of young adults who did so in the 2015 survey,” the report said.
The intermingling of these gift cards and apps seems to be behind the trend. Increases in overall retail refillable gift card sales were particularly sharp in the 18 to 24-year-old age range, which saw an increase from 44% to 53%; and among those ages 25 to 34, which jumped from 48% to 57%. The rise is even more dramatic when a three-year trend is considered, among the 18- to 34-year-old set, the jump was from 39% to 57% from 2013 to 2016. During that same stretch, gift card sales actually dropped among those over age 65, and were nearly flat for 35 to 64-year-olds.
Why the increase among young people? Gift cards aren’t just for gifts anymore. Young folks are loading gift cards onto retailer apps, and using the money on themselves, said report author Karen Augustine. “Retailers are introducing more mobile-based apps and offers when using their loyalty and prepaid programs, which may be fueling this growth in retailer gift card purchases,” Augustine said. “Young adults continue to lead this mobile revolution and growing use of prepaid cards as a money management tool.”
The Starbucks Effect
Starbucks continues to lead the way with its coffee cash app, which is little more than a gift-card management tool with a quirky loyalty program sprinkled on top. Still, the Starbucks app is a raging success. About $1.2 billion of customer cash is now loaded on the app/gift card tool, which means Starbucks holds more cash than some banks. About one-quarter of all transactions at U.S. Starbucks stores is now conducted via app. That serves customer loyalty, and it also saves Starbucks a killing on credit card transaction fees.
Meanwhile, the Starbucks app offers a huge advantage to busy young adults, those who pay via the app can skip to the end of the line, pick up their drink, and go. “I believe that millennials are taking advantage of the plethora of mobile apps that retailers have introduced that support their prepaid cards, and they start using more prepaid cards in general for their own use,” Augustine told me via email. “We see more prepaid cards being bought for personal use, not just for gifts.”
Other retailers, like coffee competitor Dunkin’ Donuts, have noticed Starbucks’ success, and now allow consumers to store value via gift cards on their own apps, a feature sometimes called “digitized stored value.” “The discount retailers are doing well in this space, despite their late entry,” Augustine said. “Dunkin’ is a regional brand that we do track, but national fast food chains are popular, too.”
On the other hand, a Forrester report issued last year suggests there’s plenty of room for retail-specific apps to grow. It found that 60% of consumers who use a smartphone to shop online have fewer than two retailer-specific apps on their phone; and only 18% of app users have used that app to store gift card value.
While plenty of store apps let users check gift card balances, or even buy and send gift cards, a study by RSR Research called the Digital Gifting Benchmark Study found that few popular apps complete the cycle and let consumers store and spend money via the app. “Too many retailers still offer no option to buy gift cards via mobile web or app,” the report said. Only 12 out of 100 retailers studied allowed consumers to load a gift card into their app. The study showed Sephora, Starbucks, Dunkin’ Donuts, Home Depot, and Amazon as the retailers with the best digital gift card experience.
Wouldn’t it be interest if the home furnishings industry offered gift cards on their apps? It might spark a revitalization in an industry that nearly never moves forward.

Sean Hanish’s ‘Sister Cities’ To Make Television World Premiere On Lifetime September 17, 2016
Sean Hanish’s film, ‘SISTER CITIES’ will make its television world premiere Saturday, September 17 at 8P ET/PT on Lifetime. ‘Sister Cities’ features an all-star cast headlined by Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Jacki Weaver (‘Silver Linings Playbook’), Stana Katic (‘Castle’), Jess Weixler (‘The Good Wife’), Michelle Trachtenberg (‘Gossip Girl’) and Troian Bellisario (‘Pretty Little Liars’), and tells the story of four estranged sisters who reunite to mourn after their mother’s passing, only to discover a secret that could tear them apart. The movie also stars Amy Smart (‘Justified’), Tom Everett Scott (‘Scream: The TV Series’), Emmy nominee Alfred Molina (‘The Normal Heart’) and Kaia Gerber in her acting debut.
Mary Baxter (Weaver and Smart, at different ages) led an enviable life, traveling the world as a young dancer. She was blessed with four daughters from four different fathers, each as unique as the cities they are named after: Carolina (Katic), Austin (Weixler), Dallas (Trachtenberg) and Baltimore (Bellisario). After Mary’s death, her daughters reunite in their New England family home to mourn.As the local police investigate the circumstances of Mary’s death, old animosities among the sisters resurface, and a dark secret threatens to tear the family apart. Faced with a horrifying truth, the estranged sisters must choose to either turn their back on the only family they have known, or risk everything to protect one another.
On the heels of a successful sold-out premiere at Michael Moore’s Traverse City Film Festival, Lifetime acquired the worldwide broadcast rights for ‘Sister Cities’. From the team behind ‘Return to Zero’, the independently produced film by Cannonball Productions, is directed by Sean Hanish, produced by Sean Hanish, Paul Jaconi-Biery, and Eleonore Dailly, and executive produced by Kelly Kahl and Alfred Molina. Colette Freedman wrote the script based upon her play. For a critique, go to:https://www.facebook.com/cinemacritique/?notif_t=page_user_activity¬if_id=1473133360160698
