Feeling the pressure of heightened expectations
“C-suite expectations from
their CMOs have skyrocketed.
In addition to their day jobs
orchestrating bread-and-butter
marketing, CMOs are expected to be
chief experience architects, chief
digital officers and be the board’s
consiglieres in the company’s digital
charge.”

customer experience,
commerce and marketing
communication.”
—Ashu Garg, General Partner,
Foundation Capital
“CMOs need to forge
tighter partnerships with
the CIOs and several
other functions within the
organization. … You
need a strategy for the
overall digital
transformation.”

are trying to innovate in the space.”

Marketing Technology
Strategy Matures, but with
Room for Staying Agile
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
‘Adopted new
technologies’
topped the list of
changes made at
marketers’
companies within
the past year as
of July 2015
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
A best-of-breed tech approach is becoming more
popular among marketers
“Marketers are largely
going with a
heterogeneous approach.
They’re trying to
rationalize their
marketing stacks
and cutting down the
random stuff from all over
the landscape.”
—Scott Brinker, Editor, Chief
Marketing Technologist Blog
“When it comes to picking
new tools, a ‘best-of-
breed’ approach
prevails. It is also more
a necessity as the scope
and variety of marketing
use cases is quite large.”
—Kashyap Kompella,
Research Director, Real Story
Group
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
But it’s not all about the technology. Alignment
with content and sales helps drive success
“If you don't have a good
strategy and strong
alignment with
sales, you’re not going
to deliver the results that
you would like, in spite of
all the accolades that the
software may receive.”
—Tip Rose, Vice President,
Enterprise Digital Marketing,
Cardinal Health
“Marketing technology
experts cannot work
in a vacuum. They
need a set of processes,
content and strategy to
work with them to help
drive the return on
investment from that
technology.”
—Rishi Dave, CMO,
Dun & Bradstreet

Plenty of room for improvement when it comes
to marketing technology tools and investment
4 in 10 US marketers
disagreed that their
company had up-to-date
marketing technology
Just half of marketers
believed their company
was investing the right
amount in marketing
technology

Data-related tech gaps need immediate attention

The Nebulous Task of
‘Integration’ Becomes
Clearer and Easier to
Accomplish
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Tech platform
integration
continues to
be a top tech
challenge for
marketers
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Marketers are demanding more openness and
ability to integrate from tech vendors
“Culturally, I think anything that prevents
collaboration, open architecture and easy
integration defeats the purpose of
why you would go with
technology in the first place.”
—Chris Curtin, Chief Brand and Innovation
Marketing Officer, Visa
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Marketing tech vendors large and small have
improved their ability to talk with other systems
“ Most of the major platform vendors have
grown their ecosystems, but so have the
individual marketing products. As anyone
who makes a marketing software product
now knows, they’re going to get the
integration question.”
—Scott Brinker, Editor, Chief Marketing

Data is the catalyst for the collision of marketing
technology and advertising technology
“There is a critical shift happening where more
organizations are in the process of blending
these two worlds to get a more granular
and accurate view of their marketing. …
Increasingly, we see a transition happening from
audience-based marketing to more of a user-centric
focus. … We’re starting to look at each member’s
reservation pattern across platforms, such as the
app and the website, rather than looking at
reservation data in these groups separately.”
—Andrew Daley, Vice President, Marketing, Zipcar

Marketers actively exploring ways to more
effectively link first-party and third-party data
37% of CMOs
worldwide said
they were using
digital ad data
to better
understand
audiences in
their CRM
database

Data management platforms (DMPs) are being
integrated with other marketing technologies
22% were in strong
agreement about
using first-party
data to enhance
their ad campaigns
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Collision of marketing tech and ad tech: it’s all
about the data
“It’s common in the industry to mix up
your data and analytics strategy with
your technology strategy and seeing the
two as the same. A lot of best-in-class
companies are defining their data strategy—
they’re asking, ‘What data do I have? How do I
leverage that data to build analytics? How do
I use that data in all my different
marketing technologies that I invest
in to drive an outcome?’”
—Rishi Dave, CMO, Dun & Bradstreet

Tech- and Data-Focused
Agencies Are in High
Demand

Senior
marketers
are placing a
significant
level of
importance on
the data and
analytics
capabilities of
their agencies

Analytics are in demand by several measures
Digital experience decision-makers worldwide said
they used third-party vendors the most for
performance analytics and reporting. (Forrester Consulting, June 2015)
4 in 10 US marketing professionals wanted their
agency partners to increase their focus on data and
related functions. (DMA/Winterberry Group, October 2015)
Analytical measurement and attribution services
topped list of most valuable marketing services
among US marketing execs. (The Relevancy Group, April 2015)
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Agencies are evolving to meet changing needs
“The role of an agency is
undergoing
fundamental change.
I think there are agencies
that will become more
like technology
companies.”
—Ashu Garg, General Partner,
Foundation Capital
“We use partners who
have deeper subject
expertise within
specific platforms to
really help augment that
team so that we can be
more efficient.”
—Tip Rose, Vice President,
Enterprise Digital Marketing,
Cardinal Health
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
Agencies planned
to make large
investments in
digital analytics,
content
marketing, data
management
platforms and
mobile marketing
© 2016 eMarketer Inc.
But make no
mistake: marketing
professionals still
find creative and
design capabilities
to be very important
