The Business Challenge

Diageo’s challenges to prove the effectiveness of digital marketing investment are more substantial than most with over 300 Facebook Fanpages, 150 websites and regular email campaigns across the globe.

There was a need for a control centre to take the pulse of digital marketing, identify high- performing brands and drive adoption of valuable brand learnings.

Through a global performance measurement framework we developed an holistic way to track and benchmark the effectiveness of marketing activities across the digital channels, brands and markets in terms of scale, reach, depth of engagement, best practice and competitor benchmarking.

"Web interactions rocketed, social media engagement rose by 60% and email responses topped 28%."

The Approach

We distilled global information from hundreds of fanpages, websites and email campaigns in a fully-automated dashboard, to create a timely, flexible solution, available to all global users accompanied by actionable insights on global digital performance.

The Results

As well as significant time and efficiency savings by moving to a single global source, the insight enabled an all-time high consumer engagement on digital channels – achieved for the same digital marketing and social media investments. Web interactions rocketed, social media engagement rose by 60% and email responses topped 28%.

“By understanding who was actually being influenced by the catalogues and who wasn’t, we reduced our costs by up to 10%.”

"I must say that I have never enjoyed working as much with a third party as I have with R-cubed. You guys are a true partner and extensions of the CRM team – not just on paper and in words."
