Okay. We've got this lingering question we need to answer: how are successful marketers using technology to solve marketing challenges?
RSVP Here!
Not only that, but we're still seeing stats like these:
• The 2015 edition of marketing technology landscape released byChiefMartec has 1,876 vendors represented across 43 categories.
• Gartner predicted that by 2017, CMO will outspend CIO.
• Research from MarketingSherpa indicates that 61% of B2B marketers send all leads directly to Sales; however, only 27% of those leads will be qualified.
What's a marketer to do? Join us on March 24th at ATV for a panel discussion between a few of the city's CMOs. We will explore each of of these three key statistics from a practitioner's point of view and how companies of all sizes can adapt to constantly changing landscape.
