Agile vs robust - a story of two tales... The director of international campaigns for a major global software company told me that their approach to developing and launching global campaigns was like “a machine” – they had “a robust but lengthy end to end process”. Very predictable, high quality outputs with high adoption by the countries, but long. They needed a process that achieved the same high quality outcomes, in a quarter of the time. They were doubtful that their internal, heavily structured and silo’d internal teams could achieve this. Their business needed to embrace agile, or look to partners that can lead the way. This would allow them to respond better to customer needs, result in lower costs, higher revenue growth and overall more engaged teams at HQ, in the countries and in their sales channels. And with GenAI opportunities barreling toward us, you won’t achieve half the gains without agility. Find out what I reccomend: https://lnkd.in/eRF7hSne #internationalmarketing #marketingagility

With customers evolving rapidly, data influx, and content overload, the answer is clear: Agile Marketing. Bold Statement: In the fast-paced world of marketing, agility isn't just a buzzword; it's the future. 1️⃣ Understanding Agile Marketing: 🚀 It's the application of agile principles to marketing, aiming to enhance speed, predictability, and adaptability. 🧠 It fosters a culture of swift experimentation, breaking away from the 'big' and embracing the 'nimble'. 2️⃣ Conventional vs. Agile Marketing: 📆 Conventional: Big strategies, long campaigns, quarterly or annual evaluations. It's a marathon. ⏱️ Agile: Think sprints, not marathons. Plan, design, launch, and measure within 2-4 week cycles. No more 'bigness'. It's all about micro-strategies and rapid iterations. 3️⃣ The Agile Marketer Mindset: 🔄 Reverse Thinking: It's customer-first. Understand their needs and pivot accordingly. 🤝 Collaboration: Transparent, empowered, cross-functional teamwork is the heart of agile marketing. 4️⃣ Five Pillars of Agile Marketing: 🎯 Start with customer priorities. 🧩 Small, empowered, cross-functional teams. ⏳ Defined experimentation processes within time-boxed initiatives. 📊 A culture rooted in data, experimentation, and learning from failures. 📢 Open, efficient, and frequent communication.

Are you looking to start #agilemarketing in 2024? Read my latest article from MarTech to avoid the 4 common pitfalls I've seen in failed agile marketing transformations. To truly transform a marketing department to agile, you’ll want to watch out for the common failure points that have hindered other companies. Successful agile marketing transformations happen when: 📍Change is incremental rather than all at once. 📍Employees have a voice in how change is happening. 📍Senior leaders are aligned with a common reason why change is needed at this point in time. #martech #marketing #agile #businessagility #changemanagement #agility Third Door Media NavigateAgile Michael Seaton
