The CMOutsider™

The Accurand Academy™

The Accurand Academy™

Today’s innovative corporations are expanding on the role of their CMOs (Chief Marketing Officers) to become more transformational in building growth strategies for global market leadership. As corporations continue to grow ever more complex, CMOs are increasingly becoming responsible for decisions related to corporate, product, and service brands which require being more agile in spanning corporate silos. This new reality demands from the CMO to decentralize branding decisions in order to bridge the gaps among the different silos of managing innovation, production, and organizational efficiency in order to optimize the brand-customer experience. Therefore, the CMO is increasingly becoming at the forefront of strategic market growth initiatives. 


The CMOutsider ™  program was developed by Accurand to support CMOs and senior corporate leaders in coordinating complex brand-related decisions (i.e. creative, digital, strategy, and research) in order to create brand harmony, clarity, and consistency. Also, the CMOutsider ™ supports senior executives of small and medium enterprises that don’t have their own CMO to coordinate a multi-agency ecosystem that provides brand-related services. Further, this program can be useful for companies that are in the entry phase of foreign markets since the CMOutsider ™ offers corporate briefings on entity formation, expansion, and growth.

Building Guest Engagement

Accurand pioneered the Guest Engagement Management (GEM) Index as a unique brand positioning platform that was implemented in case projects like Tysons Galleria, a three-level enclosed 825,000 square foot luxury retail center located in McLean, VA. This mall is at the center of a 2 million-square foot mixed-use development; the center’s footprint includes an attached 398-room Ritz-Carlton hotel. It features more than 90 luxuries specialty retailers and restaurants, and anchored by Macy’s, Neiman Marcus and Saks 5th Avenue.

Helping clients grow beyond traditional markets requires using digital marketing strategies to target younger millennials who are more technologically savvy. For example, top luxury hotels are forging a partnership with American Express to maximize the use of AMEX’s “My Life, My Card” as a template for new internet videos content. Also, using celebrity endorsers helped in adding mystique to the brand while creating socially conscious market ads to increase viewer’s attention by using the tagline “It’s My Pleasure” in a way that switched attention from the functional attributes of the brand to an image of a “Smart Lifestyle Brand”. Among the Millennial consumers, there is a strong interest in receiving instant gratification through the use of digital technology such as wearable devices like wristbands for on-demand access to hyper-local communication messages and for gaining admission to local attractions in ways that offer seamlessly integrated personalized customer experiences.

 

Beacons intelligently deliver hyper-local communication messages by measuring the proximity of a traveler to the beacon itself. This helps city destinations and retail brands to ensure the relevance of the delivered communications. Also, it helps in aligning the brand with the Omnichannel user. The Millennial consumers are particularly attracted to multi-screen communications in order to gain instant access to information on special promotions and to search for reviews on the environmental and social impact of the brands purchased.

Purposing with Purpose

In this case, Tanger built a strong strategic intent on implementing Omnichannel communications to strengthen the brand’s social responsibility messages embodied in its TangerCares campaign. Also, the city of National Harbor is being located along the Patomic River just south of Washington, DC is a multi-use waterfront development of 350 acres being positioned as a premier environmentally sustainable urban community with major green buildings, hotels, and tourist attractions like the internationally acclaimed LEED Gold certfied MGM Casino Resort.

Thriving Smart City Hub

The prevailing image of Tysons, Virginia as a suburban shopping destination (on the outskirts of Washington, DC) threatened by the rise of online commerce is becoming a reality. For a long time, Tysons was perceived as a shopping destination with two top-ranked malls closely located to each other. The “beyond-shopping” image of Tysons required major collaborative efforts between the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Council of Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce and the Tysons Partnership to create a Business Improvement District (BID) that envisions a smart hub in Northern Virginia. Thus, Tysons is transitioning away from a suburban shopping destination to an emerging hub of technology, transportation, and logistics. This initiative to develop a Smart City Hub in Tysons required integrated marketing efforts in order to communicate a harmonious brand messaging that is in alignment with the strategic intent of creating “America’s Next Great City.” This major infrastructural transformation led to population changes (60% under 40 years old) that created a high growth urban community in Tysons.
