Wine Enthusiast’s Glenn Edelman on Multichannel Order Tracking
August 20, 2008 From Tipline
As the number of marketing and media channels continues to widen, so does the variety of paths customers travel down to place orders. Glenn Edelman, senior director of online marketing and merchandising at Wine Enthusiast, the Elmsford, N.Y.-based multichannel seller of wine accessories and cellars, likes to say that someone could receive his company's catalog in the mail on Monday; google the company on Tuesday, click on a paid search ad and sign-up for Wine Enthusiast's e-mail newsletter; and then receive an e-mail on Wednesday that prompts a clickthrough and an order that same day. In his opinion, all four channels-catalog, search, e-mail and the Web-deserve credit for this order.

May 2007 From Tipline
When considering natural search optimization, it’s important to remember to build your site for your user first, and for the search engines second. What search engines ultimately want is to serve results that users will find helpful and relevant—subsequently, users and spiders seek good content and helpful links, both properly formatted. Here are two things to consider when formatting online copy: • Order your information properly. When you optimize content for your users, think prominence and focus. Use techniques such as writing in a journalist’s inverted-pyramid style, with the most important information at the top of the piece. • Make your headline stand out.
