Everyone knows that technology by itself can only get you so far – even great software must be paired with business process change and organizational collaboration to yield the greatest possible results. But how do you take a transformational set of marketing goals through to execution and success?
Join Christine Nurnberger, VP of Marketing at SunGard Availability Services, and Cyndie Beckwith, Executive Director of Expert Services at Marketo, to learn about approaches to making the most of an enterprise marketing automation implementation, including how to:
-Optimize processes for revenue generation and sales-marketing alignment
-Make the business case for implementing marketing software
-Partner with your vendor to jointly navigate a framework for project success
We were really able to move the needle in a number of areas. In FY12 was all about aligning with sales MRR objectives vs. lead metrics, selecting vendors to support enterprise level programs like C-level appointment setting, and putting the systems and processes in place to enable us to track and measure our impact on pipeline and revenue. The goal is to evolve marketing from a cost center to a profit center, and we made some pretty good strides to that end last year.
