Data Management, Reporting & Forecasting With Marketing Automation

With the upcoming introduction of GDPR, data management is fast becoming reputation and brand management – and Marketing is responsible.

When it comes to reporting, many marketing departments go no further than reporting on open rates, click through rates and impressions – and whilst these metrics are important to make tactical marketing changes for incremental improvement – senior executives and the rest of the business are looking for more insight from Marketing.

For some organisations this is the ability to demonstrate marketing’s ROI – to prove to the business that marketing is contributing to the bottom line. For others this is taking ROI a step further and being able to forecast future performance. Other departments, such as Sales and Finance, are predicting futures, yet Marketing is still very much caught up on past performance and proving its historic value.

This event will look into how the intelligent use of Marketing Automation can be used not only for data management, but can transform the way the business views Marketing with the ability to report on ‘metrics that matter’ and continually demonstrate Marketing’s value.

From Lead Source to Salesforce With Marketing Automation

Pardot’s acquisition by Salesforce has changed the industry dynamic considerably. Not only is Pardot the fastest growing Marketing Automation vendor but now as part of the Salesforce family, it is fast becoming a platform of reckoning for Enterprise as well as SMB customers alike.

Enterprise level technology requirements have expanded Pardot beyond the core feature set. For example, local country hosting, increased platform security and campaign capability are just some of the demands that have been put on Salesforce.

One of the most interesting developments has been in the pursuit of a common database architecture. This is incredibly appealing as the ability to dynamically report on both sales and marketing activity in one unified funnel is a requirement of nearly all businesses operating competitively today.

Why Attend?

This event is about showcasing how clients are using Pardot and Salesforce inter-operable in their environments today. With insight and learnings from SMB and Enterprise clients, this event should appeal to everyone who has Salesforce and has, or is, considering Pardot or Marketing Automation in general. In both cases the ability to track the opportunity from source to sale is critical to their own personal success as well as that of the business.

Marketing Automation in the Enterprise, Lessons Learned

A few years ago, Silicon Valley based Marketo was the marketing automation platform of choice for like-minded fast growth start-ups.

Since then a lot has happened; Marketo has acquired businesses such as Crowd Factory to add additional functionality and has IPO’d (Nasdaq: MKTO). Today the company remains proudly independent and continues to grow at over 50% per annum and at the same time draw the attention of global enterprises, including Deloitte and Bank of New York Mellon, our customer advocates at this event, and two of the most ambitious and considered organisations to deploy marketing automaton in Europe.

This event is designed to operate above the platform itself. It is as much about the marketing planning, the ambitions, the key learnings and the softer side of a successful marketing automation implementation and ongoing strategy.

It is also a chance to hear and network with like-minded ambitious marketers who realise that marketing has changed, and it is as much about the technology you put in place as the marketing campaigns you run.
