Marketers: Focus on Business Outcomes NOT Marketing Metrics to Prove Your Value

💥 New Podcast Alert 💥

Here's the brutal truth about marketing most don't want to admit


Marketing is only seen as valuable at a C-Suite level if it helps the company make money or save money


That's it!


Sure we can talk about vanity metrics, how not everything in marketing can be measured or "My CEO doesn't get marketing"


Even if it can't be measured directly you should still find a way how you can tie it back to business outcomes


Take Brand for example


Many say brand can't be quantified or attributed to revenue, but that's not true


Brand lowers sales cycle and makes it easier to give sales reps access to decision makers which lowers the time to close a deal, which saves costs


Brand lowers customer acquisition costs, which therefore increases bottom line net revenue


In my conversation with Terrell he told a story of how brand helped to increase outstanding payments from clients, therefore helping accounts receivables collect more money (and the company more revenue)


The moment we immediately accept that "not everything in marketing can be measured or attributed to revenue" is the moment we stop being accountable, and start accepting excuses rather than thinking of solutions


And your CEO isn't about any excuses


This week on the Revenue Alignment Podcast I break down 7 areas/metrics marketers can focus on to prove their impact and value within the organization that C-Levels care about


These are: 


1️⃣ Revenue
