Uncover the key to growth: Approaching marketing like an engineer
Manage episode 390596359 series 3436834
Engineers analyze and solve problems using systematic, iterative processes. It’s an approach that avoids making costly assumptions. While many B2B marketers measure data to prove marketing program ROI, often the data doesn’t tell the whole story and can actually hinder the drive for results.
Listen to this episode to hear guest Omer Maman, Vice President of Marketing at HR tech company, Healthee, and the GrowthMode team talk about why it makes sense to dig deeper into your data, especially in situations where the numbers don’t add up - like high lead volumes but missed revenue targets. Hear why approaching your marketing like an engineer by creating hypotheses, validating and making continuous adjustments can lead to uncovering the answers to what marketing programs truly drive the biggest results.
