Welcome to this month’s Advancing Conversion newsletter.
Optimization:
The Glue Between Marketing and IT
We
all know this: interactive is becoming an ever larger part of the marketing
supply chain. The days of focusing on how a brand is delivered on TV
are diminishing daily. Large scale CRM systems are still widely used
to retain and grow the customer base and the internet is a critical
channel for acquisition. Moreover, measurement, ROI, and accountability
are forefront on people’s minds. What these things lead to is
an increasing reliance on technology to deploy marketing programs,
measure results, and optimize performance. An existing challenge that
few are talking about is a people issue: the dynamics and working relationship
between Marketing and IT.
