Acacia Cove takes entertainment seriously!

Acacia Cove Village

Acacia Cove had a wonderful Race Night on Friday, 31st May.

The Jockeys and Jocketts were in top shape and as a result, their racing performance was remarkable. If I may add… Even their appearance has improved dramatically, some even looked about 60 years younger!

The Jockeys and Jocketts were in top shape and as a result, their racing performance was remarkable. If I may add… Even their appearance has improved dramatically, some even looked about 60 years younger!

On 27th May, the bowlers from Possum Borne Village came to visit Acacia Cove. We kicked off the day with a nutritious morning tea, they had a delicious lunch and said their goodbyes over a cuppa during afternoon tea.

The weather was amazing, and the games were a pleasure to watch as the bowlers were all in top shape. Well done bowlers!

Changing Your Customer’s Opinions

The former managing director for Facebook Australia & New Zealand has some very strong opinions about how social media and modern communication technology is changing the way people form their opinions.

The question is are you up to speed with how your customers form opinions about your brand?

Stephen Scheeler, the former managing director of Facebook Australia and New Zealand, points out that “we have entered an era where technology in good and not so good ways is impacting how humans do lots of different things and one is how they form opinions."

Stephen has concerns about how rapidly technology has transformed the way people build and change their opinions. He feels strongly that the accelerated changes are so great that even an insider with his experience cannot fully understand what is happening.

And although he is specifically referring to the way social media may have influenced the recent Australian elections, these concerns hold true for understanding your consumers and how they form opinions about your brand. What does this mean for your organisation?

The first thing to realise is that you can’t leave your head in the sand. The advertising world is rapidly changing and you need to get onboard with that. If you think that your advertising approach from even 5 years ago is up to date then you need to revisit the way you market your brand.

Targeted advertising is taking a larger share of audience than ever before so you need to know who your audience is in much greater segmentation detail than ever before. You can no longer assume the average grocery buyer is a mum with two children for example.

You also need to know how your consumer interacts and communicates with their community. As Ariadne Vromen, professor of political sociology at the University of Sydney, points out, social media “can be used to shore up your base, delivering messages to them as you know other forms of traditional advertising aren’t working”.

Ariadne adds that it isn’t only the young but older people who are using Facebook to verify opinions and establish trust in products and organisations. Social media is a powerful tool that has transformed the way your customers modify their opinions and you need to ensure you’re using it appropriately for your customer base.

Finally, you, as a business owner, need to invest more in your data collection and analysis tools. Build an expert marketing team and create an holistic approach to your advertising that talks to your consumers where and when they’re listening.
