Panel Discussion
We were honoured to be joined by marketing leaders from many of Australia’s leading brands.
Key Insights from the Panel:
- Put structures around agile marketing teams. Emphasise the importance of ‘getting right’ the strategic or Master Brief first, and then approvals of secondary briefs that relate to the Master Brief. This will speed up projects because the strategy and usually budgets are already approved. Learn More.
- As Benjamin Franklin said – “failing to plan is planning to fail” – so when launching a major MRM software initiative to an enterprise, the key to success is having a detailed plan.
- Use online proofing and approvals to get your creative assets approved in fewer days and have higher engagement and adoption on the platform.
- Automate high volume, low value tasks whenever possible. For example, use IntelligenceBank’s online Creative Templates where you can lock down areas of a file and end users can edit only certain parts, to keep your design resources focused on high quality jobs. “Nobody went to design school to do repetitive creative tasks”.
- MarTech is really about creating clever shortcuts and increasing internal capacity. If the tech isn’t saving time or money, it’s probably not work working.
- “Nobody wants to be the brand police” – Think of online brand portals as a platform to educate and enable, a platform for self-service. Different users will have different needs, so ensure you map out journeys for new users, designers, and non-marketing users (aka the folks who just need the basic brand story and PPT templates).
- Replace your marketing@ email address with ‘Ask The Team” intake forms (aka Marketing Inbox within IntelligenceBank). You can automate responses and save 20% of admin time.
- Online Disclaimer Engines can be integrated into the briefing process and into creative templates to streamline legal requirements early in the process.
