Sales Compensation Solution Acquisition Best Practices Report
This guide suggests a better process for acquiring an ICM solution. For many companies, sales compensation is the largest component of Sales, General and Administrative (SG&A) costs. The monthly calculation and payment of variable sales compensation is often an arduous, manual process that must accommodate a number of exceptions and changes: rarely does a sales compensation plan start and end a fiscal year intact.
The plan must survive the attrition and addition of sales representatives. It must accurately calculate and pay commissions on time, as there are risks and trust issues involved when it doesn’t. While the sales compensation plan is, theoretically, an enabler of revenue growth, these characteristics prevent it from scaling as the business grows.
This guide will examine the problems that motivate ICM solution acquisition, the limitations of acquiring one through a traditional RFP, a recommended approach, an example project plan and conclude with a discussion of associated risks and rewards.

Sales and Marketing Alignment Benchmarking Report
How influential is sales and marketing alignment on achieving revenue goals? A Demand Metric Benchmark Study concluded that sales and marketing alignment is more than just “happy talk”; it has a real effect on revenue performance.
In June 2013, Demand Metric conducted a benchmarking study to assess the influences on sales and marketing alignment and how in turn in impacts revenue performance. Key findings from this study include:
• Not an “all or nothing” proposition: complete alignment of sales and marketing goals is related to the highest revenue achievement, but even partial alignment is far superior to none.
• Rose-colored glasses: Presidents, CEOs or owners of their firms are more likely to perceive strong or complete sales and marketing alignment than their sales and marketing teams.
• Two is better than one: Organizational structure is related to achievement. Separate sales and marketing teams outperform organizations where sales and marketing operate as a single, combined team.
• The one with the best tools wins: Mature implementations of sales and marketing systems, such as marketing automation or CRM, are having a significant impact on revenue achievement.
• Integration = Revenue: The highest level of revenue achievement coincides with the highest level of integration effectiveness between sales and marketing systems.
• Diminishing returns: once qualified leads account for 10% of total leads generated, revenue achievement remains flat even as the percentage of qualified leads increases.

Research Methodology
The Demand Metric 2013 Sales & Marketing Alignment Survey was administered online over a period of June 24th through June 30th, 2013. During that time, over 600 responses were collected, 550 of which were complete.
All members of the Demand Metric community received email invitations to participate in the survey, and participation was encouraged through a random draw incentive for an iPad Mini.
While respondent email addresses were collected in order to facilitate the prize drawing, no identifying information was retained or considered in the analysis of the survey data.
Following collection of the survey data, Demand Metric used IBM SPSS statistics software to analyze the results and draw statistically significant conclusions.
Content Effectiveness Benchmark Report
Introduction
Content is a nexus between the sales and marketing functions in most organizations. The traditional content model calls for marketing to produce content assets and sales to use them. Having this model work well requires a great deal of intentionality on the part of both functions: marketing must endeavor to understand customer content needs and how well the assets they produce engages those customers. Then, the sales team must diligently provide feedback to marketing so that content quality and effectiveness rises.
While this model is conceptually simple, there are challenges related to alignment that impact content effectiveness in the form of visibility, communications, feedback, process, tools and even culture. The statistics tell the story: when the level of sales/marketing alignment is high, 81% of study participants report that marketing content meets sales’ needs well. However, when alignment is poor or non-existent, the content effectiveness percentage drops to 35%.
Quality content that is easy for sales to find and use is a critical success factor in sales interactions. The dynamics of the content process are not difficult to understand, but the content creation, deployment, usage and feedback loop is often a point of friction between sales and marketing. This friction is not one-sided; marketing is frustrated when it has limited feedback and visibility into the use of content assets. The sales team gets frustrated when content assets don’t meet customers’ need, or those assets are hard to find and use. This frustration is more than just an inconvenience: 70% of sales teams acknowledge that the lack of effective content negatively impacts the outcome of a sales conversation.
Since content is so often the key to successful sales interactions, it merits constant attention and improvement efforts. Demand Metric and Showpad together conducted research to understand the sales-marketing relationship around content, and how it affects sales interactions. This research shares key insights, such as when marketing has little or no visibility into sales conversations, only 32% of the content produced meets the needs of sales team well. This research will help organizations understand how to get better results from their marketing content.

Digital Marketing Best Practices Guide
Download the PDF: https://www.demandmetric.com/content/digital-marketing-best-practices-report
It has been said that “All Marketing is Digital Marketing.” And with good reason! In the last decade (or less), the marketing environment has been transformed.
Marketing has moved from an environment in which traditional marketing, brick and mortar storefronts and Digital Marketing options all competed for the time, attention and resources of the marketing department to one in which Digital Marketing reigns supreme – with an occasional nod in the direction of the storefront, or traditional marketing (direct mail, print advertising, etc.)
One of the biggest challenges of Digital Marketing is the speed of which it has taken over the marketing organization, often in an ad hoc, uncoordinated fashion.
Demand Metric’s research has consistently shown that Digital Marketing has a very significant and positive impact on the organizations that are employing it when they do so by following best practices and processes in a coordinated, holistic approach.
In this Best Practices Report on Digital Marketing we will cover the Digital Marketing landscape in five distinct categories - Content Marketing, Social Media Marketing, Mobile Marketing, Video Marketing and Public Relations
Lifecycle Marketing Benchmark Report
It’s well known among marketing professionals that customers go through a series of stages – a lifecycle – in their relationship with vendors. Despite differences in customers and the vendors with whom they do business, the lifecycle stages are pretty universal: Awareness (also known as Attraction), Consideration, Purchase, Retention and Advocacy. What differs is how long prospects remain in each stage, what kind of experience they have while they’re there, and what must happen to advance the relationship to the next stage.
Marketing is ideally the steward of the customer journey, and it faces several challenges in fulfilling this responsibility. One of the most formidable challenges is the self-directed nature of the journey. The norm is for prospective customers to start their journey in stealth mode, making significant progress on their own without marketing and sales aid, influence or assistance. Marketing has historically presided over the Awareness stage, and together with sales, the Consideration stage. But now, customers often pass through both of these stages undetected, and marketers understandably feel some anxiety over their diminished influence in these lifecycle stages.
While the stages of the customer journey are well known, from the customers’ perspective traversing them is sometimes a bumpy ride. Customers don’t view their relationship with vendors as a series of stages, each with a different conductor who may or may not know what transpired in a previous stage. Customers want a smooth journey and expect vendors to know the history of their relationships and the content already consumed; they don’t want to have to re-explain their needs and interests each time they transition to a new stage. They prefer seamless, consistent quality across all touch points and stages of the relationship, regardless of the device or channels through which interaction occurs. They value one-to-one, contextually relevant engagement that is sensitive to who they are, what they do and where they’re going.

The State of the Sales & Marketing Funnel
The classic B2B sales and marketing funnel is a model that has served marketers well for decades. An entire ecosystem of job titles, roles, responsibilities and technologies now exists around the funnel. Funnel management has evolved as a science with precise measurements that marketers use to manage and optimize a set of complimentary tools, processes and relationships that have to work in harmony to pull things through the funnel. But whether marketers realize it or not, they’re no longer working with their grandfather’s funnel.
A sustained period of barely perceptible change with the funnel has taken most marketers to an unfamiliar place. Top of funnel performance in the not too distant past was often the worst. It was predictably unreliable, with a chronic shortage of leads to feed the more efficient, demanding and hungry sales process at the bottom. An expansive collection of tools, technologies and solutions has been directed at the funnel’s traditionally weak point – the top – to increase the inflowing leads from a trickle, to a stream to now in many cases, a deluge. While marketers welcome the lead flow, for most it simply moves the problem to another funnel location.
The reality for many marketers is they now have more people interacting with their content. There are ever greater numbers of things to follow-up on, to route, to track and to push through the funnel. Demand Metric, in partnership with MRP, has completed a study about the current state of the funnel. The “funnel flow” survey measured how well leads flow through the sales and marketing funnel. This report shares the data and analysis from this research effort, providing insights on how to optimize the flow of leads through the funnel.

New pressures for marketers
Today’s marketers are under mounting pressure to demonstrate the direct connection between marketing programs and sales impact.
Measuring return on marketing, particular marketing investment is hardly possible. Marketers need to show a positive feedback between outreach activities and bottom-line result such as new customer acquisition or even beter - sales revenue. But for many companies,mesurign marketing effort is still unreachable and therefore deficient lead management practices keep getting in the way.
The landscape of business-to-business marketing has profoundly changed. Marketers face the formidable challenge of tracking leads from an ever-expanding array of channels in an increasingly complex purchase-decision process.
In the past, marketing teams focused largely on raising brand awareness through creative work,
but this is no longer true.
Marketing departments now must be able to show—proof-positive—that their efforts directly contribute to new leads, customer acquisitions, sales, and revenue growth.
Marketers working in the new landscape of business-to-business marketing face yet another challenge: how to manage an ongoing digital dialog with prospective customers.
Today’s buyers use social media extensively, marketers need to be agile enough to
keep them engaged and informed—not just in the early stages, but throughout the marketing and sales lifecycle.
New solutions: a holistic approach
Marketing automation software, which automates the process of moving leads through
the sales funnel, can be part of this solution but clearly technology alone cannot make the difference.
The solution lies in synchronizing processes and technology to better align marketing and sales and improve lead management.
Marketing operations offers a way to coordinate people, processes, and tools. Marketing operations principles offer a holistic approach to optimizing lead management and provide
the way from marketing spend to revenue through realized sales—one that examines how people, processes, and tools come together throughout the marketing and sales lifecycle.
And evaluated software tools are improving both marketing and sales force automation.
By taking steps to coordinate people, processes, and tools to manage leads, marketing leaders can more accurately measure and maximize return on marketing investment.
The holistic approach focuses on three key activities:
• Synchronize the efforts of cross-functional teams
• Optimize lead management workflows
• Close critical gaps in software systems
Need to synchronize team efforts
Marketing and sales teams often are not aligned in their processes and goals.
Lack of synchronization between marketing tactics and sales objectives magnifies the difficulty of measuring performance.
Marketing staff contend with the pressure of keeping the sales pipeline primed with leads.
At the same time, sales personnel rout

Infographic Return Path Email Engagement
In 2018, Return Path and Demand Metric partnered to study the state of email marketing to equip marketers with data and best practices to improve the use of email.
Engagement is the key to getting email into subscriber inboxes. This relationship to deliverability made engagement a logical next candidate for the study. Return Path and Demand Metric partnered again to study engagement and its relationship to email deliverability.
Infographic Vidyard Video Marketing 2018
For far too long, the emphasis on video content marketing has been on production quality; the higher the quality, the more marketing value a video is presumed to have. While quality is certainly an important aspect of video content, producing quality video does not guarantee video content marketing success. Success is very much a function of how well video content and viewing data integrate with the marketing technology stack, and how the sales team leverages the intelligence. In this fifth annual video content marketing report, Demand Metric and Vidyard partnered on research to better understand the use of video for sales and marketing, how performance is being measured, and what impact video is having. This study’s focus is on the use of video in marketing, the maturity indicators such as measuring video content performance, and how video viewing data is integrated with marketing automation platforms (MAP) and customer relationship management (CRM) systems. This report shows what progress, if any, has been made in the fifth year of this study. These study results provide insights and data useful for helping marketers get the highest possible return on their video content investment.
SEO Technology Overview

SEO is no longer just about search.
In fact, SEO, which in its early days focused primarily on keywords
(finding, optimizing, ranking), is now a baseline factor of a broader Internet
Marketing strategy across the Enterprise.
This new SEO-driven market segment that has been called Web
Presence Management (WPM) is based on the reality that keywords no
longer drive search results, but rather optimized content does.
As the SEO market matures, quality measures, such as reputation, trust,
content relevance and author authority, are replacing the old quantity
metrics, such as keyword rankings and link volume.
Advanced SEO solutions now weigh campaign performance metrics
(based on brand building, site traffic and conversion) more heavily than
keyword rankings.
This reality is based on changes in the way customers search, the
increasingly integrated omni-channel marketing environment and,
most notably, changes to Google’s Search Engine Results Page (SERP)
algorithms that favor page content freshness, density and content-rich
media over standard keyword search.
All of this means that Modern Marketing Organizations (MMOs) must
re-evaluate their SEO strategies, processes and campaigns.
In this report we will examine the state of the market, share results from the
SEO Benchmark Study, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of 15 top
SEO solutions in our vendor landscape to help organizations choose the
best solution for them, highlight the current trends in SEO that will have an
impact on Enterprise SEO initiatives and provide some recommendations
for the way forward as SEO is redefined right before our eyes.
Demand Metric defines Search Engine Optimization Platforms
as those frameworks, tools and technologies that use searchrelated
functionally to secure high visibility and web presence
for brands, products, services and companies through the use
and management of elements, such as keywords, links, content
relevance and social signals tracking.

Entering the European Market Successfully How-To Guide
Executive Summary
Leaving your domestic comfort zone to operate in another country or even continent requires careful planning. Expanding into new geographical markets is very exciting, but also very nerve-wracking. Any firm considering entering into international business transactions must understand that doing business abroad is not a simple task. It is stimulating and potentially profitable in the long-term but requires much preparation and research prior to the first transaction.
Europe is probably the most heterogeneous continent on our globe, making understanding market potential more challenging than in more homogeneous markets. Because of the European Union, it’s tempting to view Europe as a single market. In reality, you must consider each country as a market, because each country has a different mix of history, culture, language and business etiquette.
This How-To Guide will describe the steps required to successfully expand into the European market.

Driving SEO with Press Releases How-To Guide
This How To Guide will explain how press releases can boost SEO efforts, how to write press releases for SEO, the pros and cons of doing so and conclude with an action plan on using press releases in your SEO efforts.
For decades, press releases were the basic building blocks of a public relations strategy. A company that wanted press coverage would write and issue a press release. The more skilled the company was at media relations, the better this strategy worked. Press releases still serve this purpose, although a new and important use of press releases has evolved as a tool for Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
For companies whose websites are key to revenue generation, the SEO benefits are the primary motivation for writing and issuing press releases. If releases also produce favorable media coverage, that’s viewed as a bonus. The benefits of this SEO strategy result from the links a press release can produce back to the issuer’s website. These links are known as backlinks. The more external, authentic backlinks a website has pointing to it, the higher it ranks on a Search Engine Results Page (SERP). While this strategy is conceptually simple to grasp, executing it effectively requires some insider knowledge of both media relations and SEO.

Calculating Customer Lifetime Value How-To Guide
Executive Summary
This How-To Guide details the definition of customer lifetime value (CLV), the advantages of calculating CLV and the standard formula for calculating CLV.
Common sense tells us that the longer a customer is in relationship with a company, the more profitable that customer relationship is. However, many companies put the emphasis on new customer acquisition and not enough effort is made to retain existing customers. This is a mistake, because the financial impact of retaining customers is substantial: companies can increase profits by as much as 100% by retaining just 5% more of their customers. For these reasons, CLV is a crucial metric that most organizations overlook mainly because its definition and purpose are not entirely known. Understanding the monetary value each customer represents to your organization can help you budget correctly for your business needs, strategically plan your marketing initiatives and improve long-term relationships with your customer base.

Lead Scoring: Five Steps to Getting Started How-To Guide
Executive Summary
This How-To Guide will help marketers score leads by showing how to set up a simple lead scoring system and then refine it over time.
Lead scoring applies mathematical formulas to rank potential customers. It is chiefly used to identify prospects that are ready for direct sales contact. Because the calculations are automatic, the scores are consistent, current, and can include more variables than any manual assessment. This saves marketers work, ensures that all qualified leads are sent to sales promptly, and keeps non-qualified leads out of the sales system.

Marketing Resource Management How-To Guide
Executive Summary
This How-To Guide will explain the components of a Marketing Resource Management (MRM) system, provide an action plan for deployment, and conclude with a plan for implementation.
Marketing Resource Management (MRM) systems control the administrative processes that support customer-facing marketing programs. This distinguishes MRM from marketing execution systems that store customer databases and deliver marketing messages through email, Web ads, and other channels. MRM may be sold independently or as a component of comprehensive marketing management systems which also provides execution.
MRM functions fall into two primary clusters. The first involves functions related to company-level marketing management, including program planning, scheduling, budgeting, and cost reporting. The other cluster relates to program management, including task lists, purchasing media and materials, and content creation, approvals, storage, and distribution. Some MRM systems specialize in a few of these functions. Others specialize in additional functions such as customizing content for local offices or dealers or in marketing reporting and analysis. Systems may also be tailored to specific industries or companies of a certain size.
Companies buy MRM systems when their marketing programs become too complicated to run in a less systematic fashion. This, along with the systems’ high cost, originally meant that MRM was used almost exclusively by large marketing organizations with hundreds of marketers in multiple offices. More recently, the growth of digital marketing has meant that even small marketing organizations need to manage many different programs and content versions across multiple channels, and to introduce new versions more quickly. This expanded complexity has rarely been accompanied by a corresponding expansion of staff, adding to the pressure for more efficient operations. At the same time, costs have decreased as MRM capabilities were added to integrated marketing suites and as stand-alone MRM products became available as vendor-hosted services (Software as a Service, or SaaS). The result has been increased use of MRM systems among companies of all sizes.

Driving Value with Marketing Automation How-To Guide
Executive Summary
B2B marketers have enthusiastically adopted marketing automation, with industry revenue growing at 50% per year according to Raab Associates estimates. The reason for this adoption is simple: marketing automation works. Users consistently report growth in quantity and quality of leads, in lead acceptance rates, and in marketing revenue contribution. Recent acquisitions by major software vendors including Oracle, Salesforce.com, Microsoft and Adobe further confirm that marketing automation is becoming a standard part of every company’s technology foundation.
But simply deciding you want to make better use of your marketing automation doesn’t end the discussion; it just raises the much more difficult question of how. This How-To Guide will provide you with some answers.

B2B Marketing Automation How-To Guide
Executive Summary
Business-to-business (B2B) marketing automation systems are among the hottest sectors of the technology industry. Vendor revenues have grown at 50% per year since 2009 and will probably top $1 billion in 2014. Leading vendors including Eloqua, Marketo, and Pardot have been acquired or gone public at tremendous valuations. Major software companies including IBM, Oracle, Salesforce.com, Adobe, and Teradata have purchased B2B or business-to-consumer (B2C) marketing automation products. Venture capitalists have invested several hundred million dollars in start-ups and existing firms.
Yet, despite this growth, fewer than 20% of B2B marketers have purchased an integrated marketing automation system (although many more use email, Web analytics, and other component technologies). Even more alarming, many past buyers do not use their systems fully and a significant portion report little benefit from their investment.
The lesson of these statistics is not that marketing automation doesn’t work. The same studies show that the majority of users are satisfied and productive. Rather, the point is that marketing automation works only when marketers deploy their systems effectively. This How-To Guide will help to ensure that you are among the successful majority of B2B marketing automation buyers, not the unhappy remnant.

Optimizing Asset Management for Sales Success How-To Guide
Executive Summary
Asset Management has historically been seen as a marketing and branding function. This technology is used to deliver materials to sales but is not within the sales teams’ direct control or influence. Today, as more organizations focus on marketing and sales alignment, many tools and technologies that were once managed exclusively by marketing have become shared marketing and sales functions.
Despite this alignment progress on many fronts, Asset Management has tended to remain squarely in the hands of marketing. Demand Metric believes that marketing organizations that retain control are missing an opportunity to use Asset Management to its fullest capability.
The purpose of this How-To Guide is to provide Modern Marketers with a clear understanding of how to effectively use Asset Management Systems as a Sales Enablement tool.

B2B Display Advertising How-To Guide
Executive Summary
Business marketers have always advertised in specialized media such as trade magazines, but their audiences have traditionally been too narrow to use television, radio, and similar mass outlets. This limitation has carried over into the digital world, where business marketers could target ads on search terms and industry Web sites but not buy display ads that reach broad audiences. This has become an increasing problem as buyers do more research anonymously on the Web, making them harder to identify and nurture. Tools such as content marketing and social media have filled some of the gap by offering alternative methods of acquiring new names. But those methods are labor and content- intensive, making them difficult to scale. As a result, business marketers have longingly eyed the “insert coin here” efficiency that lets consumer advertisers reliably increase results by raising their display ad spend.
Happily, new methods have now made online display advertising a more effective, higher volume option for business marketers. Improved audience targeting expands the number of prospects marketers can reach and how frequently they can be contacted. Business marketers must learn a few new tricks to take advantage of this opportunity. But in return they gain a greater control over the flow of new names and more precise targeting of the messages for each individual. This Guide will ease your entry to the new world of effective B2B display advertising. Let the journey begin.

Transforming from Call Center to Contact Center How-To Guide
Executive Summary
If loyal customers are the lifeblood of a successful marketing program, call centers are the heartbeat. It is within the call center that happy customers become loyal advocates or disenchanted. All too often, however, call centers are viewed by marketing professionals as an afterthought instead of a key to customer loyalty, customer satisfaction and as a lead generation.
Modern marketers must move from seeing Customer Care as a secondary supporting function to one of primary importance to marketing programs and lead generation, along with other digital marketing and sales activities.
This How-To Guide challenges marketers to view the call center as a potential source of revenue and lead generation as well as the hub of Customer Care. This report discusses the misperceptions around call centers and shows modern marketers how to transform their call center (cost center) into a Modern Contact Center (profit center) by recognizing its strategy in lead generation and customer experience.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it.

Shopper Marketing Maturity Model
- 1. Shopper Marketing Stage 1: Undefined Stage 2: Progressive Stage 3: Mature Stage 4: World-Class Strategic Integration No defined strategy or process for integrated shopper marketing. Defined strategy and processes exist for integrated shopper marketing in pockets in the organization. Defined, integrated strategy and processes exist for shopper marketing across the organization. Defined, integrated strategy for shopper marketing exists across the organization, and campaigns are tracked and measured by effectiveness of engagement and conversion. Organizational Structure No distinction between brand-centric (marketing) activation or customer team (sales) activation. Shopper marketing is viewed as two distinct approaches (Brand-centric vs. Customer team) and budget and staff resources are allocated accordingly via integrated groups. Shopper marketing is recognized as important for driving discovery, preference, and loyalty. Senior management has a long-term commitment and provides required resources for growth. Shopper marketing is viewed as the key component in customer engagement strategy, and it is the primary focus for the marketing organization. Tools & Platforms Shopper marketing is taking an ad hoc approach to technology. Some solutions are in place for shopper insights, content marketing, and social media, but they are not integrated. There is a platform that performs specific shopper marketing functions with coordinated tools, applications, and workflows. Some, but not all, shopper marketing platforms are integrated (campaign management, shopper insights, analytics, content marketing, social listening, CRM, marketing automation, etc.) There are comprehensive, end-to-end systems integrated with all shopper marketing related tools and platforms with tight integration to enterprise systems (CRM, ERP, etc.) Shopper Insights Shopper and consumer behavior is not tracked so decisions are made based on assumptions not facts. Shopper insights are collected for individual campaigns but are not robust enough to fully understand ROI impact. Shopper insights are separated from consumer insights across the marketing team. Teams are starting to understand how behavior makes an impact on ROI. Decisions are made directly based on historical collection and analysis of both shopper and consumer insights and are directly connected to forecasting and measuring ROI impact overall. Digital Experiences Limited focus exists on creating digital experiences for shopper marketing. Teams are focused on traditional marketing approaches. Digital experiences are an afterthought and not the driving force behind shopper marketing initiatives. Experiences created do not have large- scale, positive brand impact. Sophisticated, high-impact digital experiences are created based on detailed journey mapping exercises and measuring success by incremental revenue growth. Sophisticated and effective digital experiences are delivered based on shopper expectations and stage in the purchase process to understand the ROI of each campaign. Omni-Channel Customer Journey All shopper marketing related channels and systems are not integrated into a cohesive experience as data exist in silos. Plans for an integrated omni-channel customer journey are in progress but channels and systems remain disconnected. Some aspects of the omni- channel customer journey integrated but not all systems and data are synchronized. The omni-channel experience is fully integrated from brick and mortar stores to e- commerce with real-time in- store inventories and in- store pickup from online orders. Metrics & Measurement No defined metrics are collected or reported on. Analytics are in place to monitor and track basic shopper marketing metrics such as sales lift and the percentage of shoppers who saw a specific program. Shopper marketing has a dashboard to monitor performance across retail partners and report on shopper engagement metrics by campaign. Enterprise-wide dashboard with visual representation of shopper acquisition and engagement by behavior, experience, brand reach, etc. via in-depth shopper and consumer insight collection and analysis across all efforts, channels and campaigns.
