Key takeaways

1. Team structure & Dynamics

Revenue driven marketing requires cross disciplinary teams centered around the shared goal of achieving business results by planning, winning and failing together through trials of multiple different tactics.

2. End-to-end access to data

Data needs to be accessed and analyzed in all phases of the digital marketing process – by digital marketing teams to be fully utilized to enable revenue growth and agile approach.

3. It needs to be a continuous process 

No matter how sophisticated and robust data and world-class competencies the organization has if there are no standardized and structured processes, tools & templates and a systematic way of driving growth.
