Quick Take

Nobody is perfect. Sales nor marketing.  I'm more of a marketer by trade, but marketers and salespeople are fooling themselves if they don't acknowledge the assets within themselves and each other.

Each marketer needs a sense of how to sell. Every salesperson needs to understand the importance of marketing.  But marketers don't need to know how to cold call, and salespeople don't need to know how to manage media, formulate campaigns, create branded materials, etc...

Still with me, here's where it gets good....

Quick Take

A while back I received this in my inbox from the Center for Media Research - Blog Link....
A recent Compete survey (Source: Compete, Inc. May 9, 2008) on segment-driven marketing found that marketers are focusing their segmentation efforts in online and search engine marketing activities,
This is good. Segmentation can drive better customer value and revenue over time. Excellent, we as marketers are evolving, getting smarter...
...and while only 39% of US marketers surveyed believe segment-driven marketing is very important in their organization today, 84% indicate that it will be more important three years from now.
Yes, exactly. It will be and is..
Additional highlights from the survey include:
  • 92% of respondents say they are using segments to manage their online advertising and/or search marketing
  • 76% of respondents say that their segment-driven strategy will be ahead of their competitors in three years
  • 77% of respondents are having trouble demonstrating real business results from segment-driven marketing
