Formulation of a QuestionWhy is the sky blue?
This is where experimentation starts
• Don’t make assumptions
• Ask the right question
• The question should be as close to the actual problem as possible
![Page 172: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/172.jpg)
Gather InformationFigure out what we already know
Use data tovalidate the question
• Look at analytics
• Have internal conversations
• Speak with real customers
• Identify Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
![Page 173: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/173.jpg)

Clarifying The QuestionAn often missed pause
Was your question the RIGHT question?
• Did you dig deep enough?
• Did you miss some breadcrumbs or indicators?
• Did you listen to your colleagues or experts?
![Page 176: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/176.jpg)
Form a Hypothesis What’s our best guess at answering our question
A proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting
point for further investigation.
![Page 177: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/177.jpg)
Form a HypothesisWhat’s our best guess at answering our question
Perfect hypothesis is

Make a PredictionWhat’s your gut tell you?
The prediction should prove or disprove the hypothesis
![Page 181: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/181.jpg)
Implement TestsDoes the real world behaves as predicted?
Experiments should
• Be measurable
• Test one item (or one group of items) at a time
• Have a timeframe
• Be designed to minimize possible errors
![Page 182: A Guide to Good Marketing Content - StarChapter · Marketing Playbook: Interrupt (cold calling and advertising) Today • Buyer: Well-informed • Buying Journey: Fluid and random,](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081222/5f7bbd3054af2673144aff05/html5/thumbnails/182.jpg)
Implement TestsDoes the real world behaves as predicted?
Approach To Testing
• Develop a list of possible tests
• Evaluate each suggestion based on timeframe, cost, & difficulty
• Use 80/20 rule to select tests
• Move selections to the production team

Analyze The ResultsWhat do the numbers show us?

Time to pop the bubbly?
