1. Tiếp cận đề

Assignment 1 của MKTG1472 yêu cầu bạn build digital marketing strategy cho một brand cụ thể. Khác với MKTG1045 (IMC tổng thể), MKTG1472 deep dive vào digital ecosystem: SEO, SEM, social, content, email, programmatic, marketing automation, attribution.

Đề bài thường gồm:

  • Digital audit brand hiện tại (website, SEO, social presence)
  • Digital consumer journey mapping
  • Channel strategy với specific tactics
  • Content strategy
  • Marketing technology stack recommendation
  • Measurement framework

Đặc điểm phân biệt HD: bạn show technical understanding của digital marketing, không chỉ strategic level. Bạn biết Google Ads campaign structure, biết Meta Pixel events, biết SEO technical signals, biết attribution model differences. Surface-level 'we should do social media' fails.

Marker thường đánh giá cao việc: (1) sử dụng digital tools thực tế (SEMrush, Ahrefs, Google Trends, Meta Ads Library) để collect data, (2) propose specific tactics có cost estimates và timeline, (3) understand attribution và measurement complexity.

3. Theory cần nắm

See-Think-Do-Care Framework (Avinash Kaushik)

Replaces traditional funnel với intent-based stages. See: largest addressable audience (awareness, broad reach). Think: people considering category, doing research. Do: ready-to-buy, transactional intent. Care: existing customers (retention, advocacy). Each stage has different content, channels, KPIs. VD: Do stage = SEM với commercial intent keywords, conversion-optimized landing pages, KPI = CAC, ROAS. Care stage = email nurture, loyalty program, KPI = LTV, NPS.

SEO Pillars

3 pillars: On-page SEO (content, meta tags, internal linking), Technical SEO (site speed, mobile-friendly, crawlability, structured data), Off-page SEO (backlinks, brand mentions, E-E-A-T signals: Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness). HD-level analysis covers all 3, không chỉ on-page. Technical SEO often most overlooked nhưng highest leverage cho established sites.

SEM Quality Score (Google Ads)

Google ranks ads dựa trên Ad Rank = Bid x Quality Score x context. Quality Score (1-10) considers: expected CTR, ad relevance to keyword, landing page experience. Higher Quality Score = lower CPC for same position. HD strategy: focus on Quality Score optimization, không chỉ bid increases.

Attribution Models

Last-click (default but biased toward bottom-funnel channels), First-click (biased toward awareness), Linear (equal credit), Time-decay (more credit to recent touches), Position-based (40-20-40 between first, middle, last). Data-driven attribution (DDA, Google's algorithmic model) considered most accurate but requires data volume. Each model produces different ROI rankings, leading to different budget decisions. HD papers discuss attribution choice implications.

Customer Lifetime Value (LTV)

LTV = (Avg Purchase Value x Purchase Frequency x Customer Lifespan). LTV/CAC ratio benchmark: <1 (losing money), 1-3 (suboptimal), 3-5 (healthy), >5 (could invest more). Apply: calculate LTV cho target customer, justify CAC ceiling cho acquisition campaigns. Subscription/SaaS uses MRR, ARR, churn-based LTV models.

Marketing Funnel & Flywheel

Traditional funnel: Awareness → Interest → Consideration → Intent → Evaluation → Purchase. Modern flywheel (HubSpot): Attract → Engage → Delight, with happy customers fueling more attraction. Flywheel emphasizes retention và advocacy as growth engines, not just acquisition.

Programmatic Advertising

Real-time bidding (RTB) for digital ad inventory. DSPs (Demand-Side Platforms) buy impressions matching audience criteria. SSPs (Supply-Side Platforms) sell publisher inventory. DMPs (Data Management Platforms) provide audience data. Programmatic enables scale, audience targeting, real-time optimization. Trade-off: less control over context (brand safety concerns).

4. Tips làm bài

Tip 1: Use real digital tools cho audit. SEMrush, Ahrefs, Moz cho SEO data (free trials available). Meta Ads Library cho competitor ad analysis. Google Trends cho search interest. Similarweb cho traffic estimates. Screenshots với data points strengthen analysis. VD: 'Brand X domain authority 28 (Moz) vs competitor average 45, indicating significant SEO gap. Top 10 ranked keywords concentrated in branded terms (78% of organic traffic), suggesting non-branded SEO underdeveloped.' Specific data drives credibility.

Tip 2: Vietnam digital ecosystem context. Vietnam digital landscape unique: TikTok dominant cho Gen Z (78% penetration), Zalo Vietnam-specific platform (75M users), Shopee/Lazada e-commerce duopoly, Grab/GoFood for delivery, MoMo/ZaloPay for payments. Don't apply Western frameworks blindly. VD: omitting Zalo từ Vietnam digital strategy = oversight. Including Zalo Mini Apps for in-app brand experiences = local insight.

Tip 3: Specific keyword strategy. Don't say 'optimize for keywords'. Specific: 'Target 50 keywords across 3 clusters: (1) High-intent commercial: "buy [product] online" (search volume 8.1K/month, KD 42), (2) Informational top-funnel: "how to choose [product]" (12K/month, KD 28), (3) Brand+modifier: "[brand] review" (3.2K/month, KD 15). Estimated 6-month traffic uplift: 35K monthly visits, conversion at 1.8% = 630 monthly leads at zero CPC.' Keyword research với SEMrush/Ahrefs evidence.

Tip 4: Campaign structure cụ thể. For Google Ads, specify: account → campaign → ad group → keyword/creative hierarchy. VD: 'Campaign 1: Brand Search (defensive), 5 ad groups by product line. Campaign 2: Non-Brand Generic, 8 ad groups by keyword theme. Campaign 3: Performance Max for retargeting, single asset group with audience signals. Daily budget split 30-50-20 với target ROAS bidding for Campaign 3.' Marker với industry experience appreciates technical depth.

Tip 5: Content strategy với hub-and-spoke. Hub-and-spoke model: 1 pillar piece (comprehensive guide, 3000+ words) + 8-12 spoke pieces (targeted articles linking back to pillar). Boost SEO authority, signal topical expertise. VD: Pillar 'Complete Guide to [Topic]'. Spokes: '[Subtopic] explained', '[Subtopic] vs [Alternative]', 'How to [task related to topic]', 'Best [tools/products] for [topic]'. Distribution: organic search, email, social, paid promotion of pillar.

Tip 6: Attribution honesty. Don't claim perfect attribution. Acknowledge limitations: cookie deprecation reducing accuracy, cross-device gap, walled gardens (Facebook, Google) attribution self-favoring. Recommended approach: triangulate using MMM (top-down view), MTA (multi-touch granular), incrementality testing (gold standard). HD papers discuss attribution complexity, không pretend simple.

Tip 7: MarTech stack realistic. Don't recommend USD 200K/year stack for SMB brand. Match scale: Startup (USD 0-50K revenue): HubSpot Free, Mailchimp, GA4, native social. SMB (USD 1-10M revenue): HubSpot Pro, ActiveCampaign, GA4 + Looker Studio. Mid-market (USD 10-100M): Salesforce + Marketo, Segment CDP, Looker. Enterprise: full stack với CDP, attribution platform, advanced analytics. Match recommendation to realistic budget.
