Marketing Fast and Furious: 3 Ways to Shift to More Agile Marketing Planning

Marketing has always been difficult, and now it’s harder than ever. Consumer expectations are increasing, new communications channels are exploding, and companies are awash in data – but they still can’t get the information they need to improve personalized experiences.

In this informative webinar you’ll learn how to “Think Bigger” to gain a holistic view of your current ecosystem. This session will outline how to make the most out of your applications and process with 360-degree visibility, flexibility, and control over your stack. James Delande will cover how you can eliminate data silos, gain agility, and automate processes for streamlined marketing operations that not only deliver a compelling ROI, but also aids in the retention of valuable marketing staff.

Think Bigger About Marketing Operations

In this 20-minute session from the MarTech virtual conference, learn how Autodesk went from zero visibility into spend, to mapping 86% of global marketing spend to specific campaigns.

Autodesk’s marketing organization suffered from the familiar pain point trifecta. They decided to tackle all three problems head on by mounting a MPM program and integrating Allocadia into their tech stack.

The marketing pain point trifecta:
1. Marketing teams are operating in silos
2. Unable to properly track marketing spend
3. Poor budget visibility makes it impossible to tie spend to performance

“But as long as we can connect everything to an Allocadia ID, we can get it back into a cohesive view in the end. And that’s really where our analytics team comes in and produces these really comprehensive and deep reports, based on the data that we’ve provided and tagged with this unique ID.”

Driving Marketing Success in a Pandemic with Better Performance Management

A new study from Forrester reveals that marketers may only be settling for “good enough” when it comes to the management of their marketing spend.

Forrester’s survey of marketing decision-makers reveals that the current processes for adjusting marketing budget in response to external and internal factors are slow and effort-intensive. Centralizing and automating these efforts will create flexible, transparent, and real-time marketing organizations, allowing them to optimize the value of their operations.

Join guest presenter Forrester Vice President and Principal Analyst Rusty Warner on the key findings from the study including:

• How quickly marketing decision-makers are able to adjust or reallocate their marketing budget in response to internal and external stimuli
• What aspects of planning, budgeting, and performance management marketers are improving or looking to improve
• The capabilities marketers consider critical for effective spend management
•	Forrester’s recommendations for organizations seeking to improve the value of their marketing operations 

The presentation will also feature Ted Lesher, Managing Director at BrandMaker who is responsible for the management and financial performance of BrandMaker's North American business operations including strategic planning, strategic account development and business process optimization. As a SaaS industry expert with over 25 years’ experience helping large enterprises address cross-functional operational inefficiencies, Ted brings an insightful perspective and strategic insights to the world of Marketing Resource Management (MRM).

The ROI Impact of World Class Marketing Operations

According to the latest Gartner CMO Spend Survey 2020, 28% of CMOs cite marketing operations as their most important strategic capability. By 2023, 60% of marketing teams will embrace a marketing work management platform and will consider it both a required and primary platform in their adtech and martech stack.

The basic problem that marketers often face is the lack of transparency in campaign planning and communication. Campaign briefings are usually sent to a large mailing list as an attachment. As you know, there is always a back-and-forth with large mailing lists: comments are exchanged and new updates are sent around until finally the most current information is not apparent. 

However, for a successful campaign execution, all parties involved need access to current campaign information, as well as the qualitative and quantitative goals of the campaign, at anytime from anywhere in the world.

Knowing where you stand at any given moment is essential to maximize the use and effectiveness of your marketing budget. Say goodbye to monster excel sheets and never-ending email back and forth! You need a quick overview of the relevant budgets and meaningful reports.

Learn how BrandMaker can put the power into the hands of marketers to gain efficiency, automate processes and improve marketing ROI. Watch now!
