Using Email Before, During and After Your Online Events

With as much data at our fingertips as ever before, marketing is transforming from an art into a data-centric science, especially when creating content. Marketers are expected to produce more content that drives consistent performance to ensure your sales engine continues to run, while not necessarily growing your resources to do so. Marketers need to work smarter and having the right metrics and insights is essential for marketing to make an impact on the bottom line.

Join Nick Markwith, Senior Director of Content & Analytics at BrightTALK, as he dives into how you can make the most sense of your data and deliver impactful insights by:
- Identifying the right metrics and avoiding metric overload
- Understanding the different types of content analytics
- Putting those analytics in use to make an impact

About this speaker:
Nick Markwith has spent the past 9 years producing hundreds of live webinars, virtual events and series with our clients to better connect and build trust with their audience. He’s recently moved into an analytical role but still loves talking about everything content.

TechTarget and LinkedIn join forces for a webinar sharing groundbreaking research into the B2B technology buying landscape. The findings reinforce the need for tech marketers to identify, influence and engage purchasing committees – some of which contain 10 or more stakeholders. The question is how to do this in a scalable, efficient manner especially in a region like APAC where resources are often limited.

Since surrounding and educating the whole buying team is critical to winning champions and closing business, the presentation and interactive discussion will center around:

• How buying committees give off signals of interest for solutions like yours
• Effective ways to turn intent into successful, multi-channel marketing campaigns
• Tips for engaging different personas with a content-driven and consultative approach
• The downside to focusing exclusively on pre-defined titles/personas and excluding others

While great webinar slides grab an audience’s attention and keep them engaged, too often they just miss the mark. So how can you ensure your presentation hits your overarching goals without overwhelming (or underwhelming) your audience?

In this episode of BrightTALK’s Build a Better Webinar series, we’ll dive into crafting slides that effectively convey your message. From adding polish with animation and .gifs to the best uses for charts and graphs, we’ll coach you through creating presentations that provide value for your audience and drive conversions for your business.

Living campaign-to-campaign to make demand generation ends meet is a way of life for many B2B marketers.

Your sales and marketing resources operate on a consistent rhythm, demand for your products and services should too.

Shift your business into a growth machine by using always-on channels and techniques to consistently turn demand into activity. Join BrightTALK’s CMO, David Pitta, and Director of Marketing Programs, Olivia Dassler, as they discuss innovative channels and techniques for perpetual demand generation and business growth.
