Modern Marketing Strategies and Tactics for Effective Lead Generation
OVERVIEW:
From strategy all the way through execution the marketer’s world has become primarily digital. The Modern Marketing Technology Landscape from the “Martech 5000” now has almost 7,000 different platforms that one could consider. Making sense of it all can be an overwhelming task.
Further, Nigel Fenwick from Forester has stated in his premier article on Digital Transformation that “By 2020, every business will become either a digital predator or digital prey. The predators, (he said) will achieve digital mastery in creating new sources of value for customers and the prey will be unable to evolve their business models until it’s too late”.
Is it too late for you? Probably not, but the sooner you can gain understanding of what is important, what is not and how to bring digital under control, the better it is for you, your organization and your customer base.
RECOMMENDED FOR:
