CEOs To Marketers: CMOs Need To Focus On Revenue Growth - Marketing Insider Group | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
Focusing on customers = more profitable marketing outcomes.

By embracing new technologies, creating each go-to-market strategy with a fresh approach, taking advantage of the insights that customer data and feedback offers, and connecting with the wider organization in order to direct better business strategies, CMOs are more than capable of driving revenue growth.

The expectations are more dynamic today and yes, the pressure is on to produce results. For marketers who can apply their creativity to coming up with the most impactful ways to utilize all the new and evolving tools at their fingertips through innovative strategies, and who can accept both the power and responsibility of the reborn CMO, driving growth should be a piece of cake.

No, not heading for a wipeout. But expectations are exceeding reality, and just a matter of time before the complete engine is in place where everyone is in sync. Including the CIO/CMO relationship.

The post highlights: "Rather than single-mindedly chasing new opportunities, the time has come to build a stronger foundation of core digital marketing disciplines." I believe it is true.

Marteq's insight:

A post on what should happen, but unfortunately that's not what is happening. The problem?


The marketer doesn't know what he/she doesn't know.


And that's when the problems start: when marketers start their own tech initiatives without CIO guidance. End result: CIO has to step in.

Marteq's insight:

Bear in mind that the IT organization is building a shadow marketing function, as there is a marketing technology leadership void. IT's shadow marketing group is gaining ground, and CIO.com has written about it.


And I'm not entirely sure that CMOs are, or can, tamp down on this.

Marketers have also waded into unfamiliar technical waters. In other words, marketing technology and data analysis have upended their profession. Most marketers are still trying to wrap their heads around the complexities of technology and trying to separate hype from reality. Hence, there's a real fear of failure.

Perhaps most frightening of all, the majority of marketers don't really have a plan. They're making reactive marketing tech decisions rather than strategic ones. In fact, Forrester says only 44 percent have a clearly defined and deployed digital strategy.

The bottom line: Lots of scatter-shot marketing dollars hang in the balance, while returns may prove to be elusive.

Marteq's insight:

And this reflects the thinking of the CIO! Lots of budget into the hands of the CMO, and the prevalent thought is that the CMO doesn't know what to do...and the CIO does. Unfortunately, this is truly the case in many, many situations.
