Going Beyond Email Metrics: A Framework To Help You Plan Your Campaign - Oracle

Going Beyond Email Metrics: A Framework To Help You Plan Your Campaign - Oracle | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
1. Always Start by Setting Your Objective(s)

2. Define Your Data Model

Now that you set your objective(s), it’s critical to make sure you have the data you need in order to report the success of your campaign or program. If you don’t have the data, you won’t be able to report back to your business that the investment made will deliver positive ROI. The good news is, you can start small and refine it as you become more sophisticated in your segmentation and targeting strategies. Going back to the re-engagement program, in order to report on whether you achieved the objective set, you’ll need to be able to identify and flag the inactive group prior to shipping your campaign out of the door.

3. Define the Metrics & KPIs

4. Develop a Reporting Plan (Align Reports x Stakeholders)

5. Don’t Forget to Capture Your Learnings
Marteq's insight:

Always start with metrics and reporting.

FREE: Improving ROI with Marketing Optimization by SAS - AdRants | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

The requirement to juggle multiple constraints and considerations is an inescapable part of the marketing equation. Marketing executives need a top-down, integrated marketing management approach that optimizes the value of all campaign activities. That’s exactly what marketing optimization does – it gives marketers the ability to plan and prioritize all customer interactions in a way that maximizes economic outcomes while balancing the capacity to deliver and the likelihood to respond.

Marteq's insight:

And in addition to the very recent Adobe report, see this report from SAS covering the same topic: optimization. Bottom line: optimization is easy, strong upside, ROI justified.

FREE: Gartner Magic Quadrant for CRM Lead Management – Marketo

FREE: Gartner Magic Quadrant for CRM Lead Management – Marketo | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

Read this complimentary copy of the Gartner Magic Quadrant for CRM Lead Management and find out why Marketo was named a leader based on completeness of vision and the ability to execute.


According to Gartner's Magic Quadrant on CRM Lead Management, "CRM lead management's contribution to revenue growth fuels investment and overall satisfaction levels." Get the full report and you’ll learn:

  • The overall market evaluation and vendor analysis of 12 CRM lead management vendors
  • Insights for selecting an initial vendor based on your organization's requirements
  • An understanding of the opportunities and challenges that executives experience when building and deploying lead management systems


This complimentary report covers these topics and more.


Marteq's insight:

This is NOT a report that promotes Marketo: as you know, Gartner is vendor agnostic, especially their Magic Quadrants (such a silly phrase: magic quadrant). Add this to your weekend reading list. The price is right.

Snippet...


Opti­miza­tion still isn’t con­sid­ered a mar­ket­ing priority

  • A major­ity of com­pa­nies sur­veyed spend 5% or less of their mar­ket­ing bud­get on opti­miza­tion activities

How­ever, the com­pa­nies that do invest more, reap the benefits

  • Com­pa­nies spend­ing more than 25% of their mar­ket­ing bud­gets towards opti­miza­tion are twice as likely to enjoy high con­ver­sion rates.

What is hold­ing com­pa­nies back?

  • For almost half the sur­vey respon­dents, test­ing is not a pri­or­ity at their com­pany (yet)
  • Bud­get and resources remain the two biggest chal­lenges to testing
