Marketing Day: Apple Earnings, Amazon Echo & Pinterest’s “Marketing Developer Partners”

Here’s our recap of what happened in online marketing today, as reported on Marketing Land and other places across the web.

From Marketing Land:

  1. Apple Beats Expectations With $58 Billion In Revenue, Sells 61 Million iPhones The iPhone 6 is the force that continues to power huge quarters for Apple.

  2. Up Close With Amazon Echo: It’s Early, But This Personal Assistant Shows Promise Comparisons to Siri, Cortana and Google Now don’t fit. Echo isn’t as developed as those and serves an entirely different use case.

  3. WordPress Issues 4.2.1, Another Critical Security Update The second security update in a week is now available.

  4. Act Now: SMX Advanced Early Bird Rates Expire Saturday Search Engine Land’s SMX Advanced rates increase at the end of the day Saturday! Register now, save $200 and guarantee your seat at the search marketing conference of the year.

  5. Brand Alignment And Content Strategy: Synergies That Sell Columnist Jayson DeMers outlines the steps you can take to ensure your branding and content efforts are working hand in hand to help drive sales.

  6. Google Plus Is Small, But Still Not Dead Yet Despite the “near death” rumors, Google+ still has plenty of life left, and Google has no current plans to dismember it, believes columnist Mark Traphagen.

  7. Pinterest Launches “Marketing Developer Partners” Program Pinterest gives content publishing API access to 10 companies that offer social media management tools and services.

  8. How To Turn Data Into Dollars: 3 Stages To Activate Your Data It’s not just about collecting data. You need to know how to activate that data to extract value from it. Columnist David Booth explains how.

  9. Facebook “Evaluating” Whether To Make Apple Watch App During the Apple Watch product launch, an example of Facebook on the Apple Watch made social media addicts drool. Now that the watch is here, a Facebook app is nowhere to be found.

  10. How To Use Twitter & Instagram On The Apple Watch; Facebook Is MIA Don’t expect to create much social media content to share on the Apple Watch. However, it does support bite-size consumption, including liking Instagram images and retweeting tweets.

  11. Plum Organics’ #ParentingUnfiltered Campaign Eschews Unrealistic Portrayal Of Parenthood For Blunt Realism The organic baby food brand aims to tell Millennial parents that it’s OK to be imperfect.

  12. Chrome Notifications, “The Physical Web” And Google’s War On Apps From day one Google has hated apps. It grudgingly built them because the iPhone and the culture of smartphones forced the company to. Now with Chrome notifications it has taken a very self-conscious step toward making apps less “essential.”
