Modern marketing organizational structure @kaykas - jascha kaykas-wolffJascha Kaykas-Wolff
Organizational design and restructuring is not new. But, with the requirement to create data-driven marketing organizations and support marketers who show bottom line results more emphasis is being placed on marketing leaders to structure their teams and business in a way that is agile and impactful.
Reflecting on this, and doing some additional research of my own, I was struck by the lack of published material describing how one might go about building a marketing organization that addresses business challenges happening right now and most importantly that can drive results right now.
Over the past several years as I’ve been fortunate to lead marketing organizations for enterprise and mid-market businesses. During this time I’ve developed an organizational playbook that can scale to virtually any size of business, is highly adaptable, and has a proven track record for success.
Enclosed is the core framework for what I believe is an ideal composition for the modern marketing organization. I’m looking forward to your feedback. - Jascha

Generating good sales leads is key and depends on thorough target marketing research to identify the correct prospects. The operation also requires hiring and training employees to represent the company well over the phone with detailed product, sales, and customer service instruction. Ensuring legal compliance, a suitable product or service for telephone sales, targeting actual prospects, and an effective telephone sales force are ultimately what will determine the success of a telemarketing business.

The most effective strategy is to determine the target audience for a product or service. This involves creating an ideal customer profile with characteristics like demographics and psychographics to identify who will most likely purchase the product. Focusing marketing efforts on the right target audience using appropriate channels is key to implementing a successful target marketing strategy.
Using a project management information system (PMIS) can provide organizations a competitive advantage in project management. A PMIS helps plan, execute, and close projects by ensuring all appropriate steps are taken at each phase and tasks are completed properly. While organizations can succeed without one, a PMIS better ensures projects meet scope, cost, and time goals. For large, important, or unfamiliar projects, a PMIS may be crucial due to its ability to gather, integrate, and disseminate project management outputs and support all project aspects.

Blogging is a cost-effective way to generate high-quality content that promotes products and services. While blog design and content are important, distribution is key.

Analyzing readership and comments provides useful marketing data to optimize the blog as a dynamic tool.
This document discusses how businesses can effectively use newsletter marketing. It notes that newsletters can be used to stay in touch with existing and potential customers by providing useful information like sales, product updates, promotions, and other useful content. Newsletters also allow businesses to continue building interest with prospective customers who may not currently need the business's products or services. The keys to successful newsletter marketing are providing highly informative and engaging content, as well as including a "call to action" that influences readers to make purchases or provide their information for future marketing. Examples of effective content include surveys, polls, contests, giveaways, and video tutorials. Newsletters can also be a good source of referrals if the content is high-quality and share
The document discusses how businesses can achieve long-term success through positive customer experiences. It emphasizes that companies should focus on understanding and satisfying customer needs. To cultivate loyalty, businesses must provide quality products/services, gain feedback, resolve issues promptly, and reward satisfied customers. Making customers feel valued can turn them into brand advocates who spread awareness through their social networks.
The two most common barriers that prevent firms from entering a market are lack of access to sufficient startup capital and lack of a solid business plan. Without adequate funding from sources like banks, investors, or family and friends, most businesses are unable to get off the ground. Additionally, without a well-written business plan to guide operations and secure necessary financing, aspiring entrepreneurs will find it very difficult to successfully launch a new business and overcome initial challenges.
Marketing provides significant benefits to both businesses and consumers. For businesses, marketing activities like advertising, public relations, and sales promotions help increase revenue and maximize sales by attracting new customers. For consumers, the competition between businesses that results from marketing leads to three main benefits: 1) companies promote good customer service to satisfy customers, 2) consumers have access to a wide variety of products and services, and 3) competitive marketing drives lower prices. Overall, marketing expands the economy by ensuring consumers have choices and businesses succeed, creating a strong environment with low unemployment and tax revenue to support important government services and improve quality of life.

Optimizing Net Interest Margin (NIM) in the Financial Sector (With Examples).pdfshruti1menon2
NIM is calculated as the difference between interest income earned and interest expenses paid, divided by interest-earning assets.
Importance: NIM serves as a critical measure of a financial institution's profitability and operational efficiency. It reflects how effectively the institution is utilizing its interest-earning assets to generate income while managing interest costs.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.
Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.

himself, and do that which happens to be the easier. But if
you are wise, you will do both at the same time, young or
old, rich or poor, sick or well; and if you are very wise you
will do both in such a way as to augment the general
happiness of society.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

Editor's Notes
Welcome to A Success Plan for Your Personal Relationship with Money Thank you to Harmony Church for allowing us to share this message with you this evening….
Basically, this quote is saying that you can be happy without having to spend more money on stuff that you don’t need, while pursuing your purpose in life and the world will also be a better place to live. What could be simpler – What could be better????
Are you Managing your Relationship with Money, or are you Waiting for a Miracle????
Essentially, there are (4) Money Relationship Styles.
You’re a Player. Basically, you spend every penny you can on having a ball – I think the young people call this “Ballin’”.
You find yourself forever in the “Friend Zone” You’re nice to your money – you pay your bills and you may even have a little left over, but at the end of the day you want more from your relationship with money.
You’re Good to your Money. You save when you can and maybe even invest a little, but you’re still not totally “Committed” to “Managing” your Relationship with Money.
You are committed to managing your money. You’re creating assets and multiple streams of income while shedding liabilities and ending your servitude to debt.
I want everybody to just think about how you’ve earned and spent your money in the past, while we talk about the different ways that people can earn and spend money.
Explain the (3) different ways that you can earn money.
You’re Managing your Money when you’re Spending Less; Saving More; Investing Smart and Creating Multiple Streams of Income.
Now you’ve had some time to think about how you’ve earned and spent your money in the past. Now are You Committed to Transforming Your Relationship with Money in the future????
Priorities - Source: Wikipedia - Merriam-Webster - The Free Dictionary
Having Negative Priorities means putting things that may make life easier before things that make life more fulfilling.
Having Positive Priorities means putting things that that make life more fulfilling before things that just make life easier.
Just to illustrate how priorities can be organized, this is a very widely used model for prioritizing needs named Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
Before you can create and stick to a financial budget – which is very important, you need to create a “Priorities Budget” to determine what is most important to you.
Now if you don’t take anything else from what we’ve talked about so far – please remember this one thing: Don’t Buy Stuff You Can’t Afford Let’s watch this short video that talks a little more about this topic.
Read all Three Statements - Translation: Just get going – everything else will take care of itself.
This video taken from the film “ The Pursuit of Happyness ” will hopefully reinforce the previous statement(s).
So what are the 5 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship with Money????
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said that “Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.” In the Holy Bible - Luke 11:9 says….
In 1 John 2:16 the Holy Bible says that….things keep us tied to the world and further away from God. What things are keeping you tied to the world and further away from living the life that you want to live????
W.E.B DuBois once said that “To whom you give your money, you give your power." Proverbs 22:7 stated it another way…. – it essentially says that you are a slave to whoever you owe money too.
We have to stop lying to ourselves about our relationship with money. Why???? Because Proverbs 10:9 says that ….
If you don’t have a budget to keep track of what’s coming in and what’s going out, you’ll never have a clear picture of what you need to do, to go where you want to go – Your budget is your compass to finding the way to your financial destination. We’ll discuss some specifics of budgeting in the next section.

Welcome to A Success Plan for Your Personal Relationship with Money Thank you to Harmony Church for allowing us to share this message with you this evening….
Your budget is the first tool you need to create a strategy for transforming your relationship with money.
In order to achieve your financial goals, you need to have an organized strategy for transforming your ambitions into a series of purposeful actions.
Let’s watch a short video that illustrates how it’s never too early or too late to learn the importance of having a budget.
Whether it’s a lower price, a better rate, a shorter term or a budget billing plan for your utilities – Everything is negotiable, but you have to ask for it.
Insurance coverage, not stocks and bonds are the foundation of a sound financial plan. Unexpected healthcare costs can wipe out savings quicker than almost any other expenses. Uncovered expenses due to inadequate life insurance can wipe out any inheritance you might leave your family.
We have all heard of the 7 Deadly Sins; but have you ever considered how they relate to your relationship with money????
As Pastor Roland has told us many times, God doesn’t want us to be followers, God wants us to be “Overcomers”. Learning how to avoid the Seven Deadly Sins of Money can help us all to become financial “Overcomers”.
Sometimes our wealth can cause us to become so arrogant that we lose touch with out true purpose, reality, other people and most importantly God.
Do you want more money just to impress other people????
Do you want more money just to buy more things you don’t need????
In the Holy Bible - Romans 6:23 says that “….the wages of sin is death….” Oftentimes when we have more money, we’re able to buy more things that we think will give us more pleasure, but sometimes these things end up bringing us more pain than pleasure and keep us away from fulfilling our true calling.
Does not having enough money motivate you or make you angry????
Do you want more money just to horde it or put it to work???
Once we have a plan in place for transforming our relationship with money, we must work our plan diligently and continuously avoid slipping back into our old bad money management habits.
