With a seat at the leadership table, a strategic budget and Board support… you will unleash a marketing super power.
According to Board advisors, when a company brings in a new President from outside their organization, one of the first two positions that President personally fills is the Chief Marketing Officer role. Having an enterprise minded CMO who understands what is available in the changing world of marketing and can directly unite strategy with your analytics, is crucial to the present and future success of your organization.
Technology has ushered in a new era of marketing. Analytic tools can now identify very targeted information about your customers social profiles, past and predictive buying behavior, interests and hobbies of existing and potential consumers. With the right budget and senior leadership endorsement, your marketing department can now have unprecedented insight into patterns of behavior that can exponentially increase the profitability of your company.
Your leadership and Board must view the CMO as a core part of the leadership team. The opportunity cost of not having a CMO or fractional CMO in place will negatively impact your organization’s success – the most important being lost profits.
