Text us your thoughts on the episode or the show!Marketing leaders face a painful dilemma: they need to prove their impact through data, but marketing data is notoriously messy compared to the cleaner, more discrete data available to sales and finance teams. This gap creates what Eric Westerkamp, CEO of CaliberMind, calls a "data dumpster fire" that marketing operations professionals must somehow transform into credible reporting.Drawing from 20 years of executive leadership experience spanning sales and entrepreneurship, Eric offers a refreshingly practical perspective on how marketing teams can build trust in their data and storytelling. Rather than attempting to fix all data quality issues before beginning reporting initiatives, he advocates starting small with specific reports that deliver meaningful insights. This approach allows teams to identify which data elements need fixing while simultaneously delivering value.The conversation explores how marketing operations teams can effectively normalize data across systems, enabling consistent reporting even as organizations migrate between platforms or evolve their naming conventions. Eric shares a striking example where analysis of 1,800 job titles revealed that 80% were unique variations of essentially the same titles—a common challenge that undermines segmentation and reporting efforts.The episode also examines how AI is revolutionizing marketing operations. While AI tools may struggle with complex calculations, they excel at transforming buyer journey data with thousands of touchpoints into credible stories. Organizations embracing these capabilities are gaining significant efficiency advantages, with SDRs able to cover 20% more accounts and marketing teams generating insights faster than competitors.Whether you're a marketing operations professional struggling to build reporting credibility or a CMO needing to better demonstrate your team's impact, this conversation provides actionable guidance for taming your data dumpster fire and transforming it into powerful, trusted insights that drive business decisions.

In this podcast episode of Elevated Marketing, we explored the current marketing metrics, focusing on key data points businesses need to prioritize. Emphasizing the interplay of data and creativity, we broke down the essential metrics that matter at each stage of the marketing funnel—from building awareness to driving conversions and fostering loyalty.While marketing tools and trends continue to evolve rapidly, we stressed the importance of mastering the fundamentals to navigate these changes effectively. Key highlights included the critical role of first-party data—your owned audience such as email lists—and how engagement metrics reveal whether your content is resonating.We also discussed the saturation of content in the market and how quality trumps quantity when crafting impactful messaging.

Can You Get Podcast Downloads Without Actively Marketing It? I often get asked, "What would happen if I didn't promote my podcast at all?" In this episode, I'll share what I found when I tested this out on my podcast between Seasons 1 and 2 of the show. I'll discuss the impact on my downloads, traffic, retention, brand, and social media. I wanted to create a season preview about what the new season will bring while telling you what happens if you neglect podcast promotion. By doing so, I also hope to help you avoid seeing zero downloads on that dashboard—a traumatic scenario for any podcaster. I understand the effort put into creating a show, only to have no listeners can be disheartening. So, let's dive into this topic and discuss a few big changes happening behind the scenes.The Consequences of Not Promoting Your PodcastWhat happens if you decide not to promote your podcast at all? I did a little experiment—I did mention the podcast once in a newsletter—but for almost three months, I didn't promote it on social media or through my newsletter, except for that one time. So, what happened?I looked at the data right before recording this episode and here's what I found:Shift in Platform Use: There was a notable shift in platform use. While Spotify has seen growth among users, especially where Android is more prevalent, my US-based audience primarily uses Apple devices. This shift was surprising and suggests behavioral (or audience) changes among listeners, with Spotify launching new features contributing to this change.Analysis of the Data: Comparing an almost 90-day period of not promoting my podcast to the previous 90-day period, I saw a 30% drop in downloads and unique listeners. This number is interesting as it held consistent across downloads and unique listeners.Impact on Video Content: The impact was also felt on YouTube, where I had lower view durations and 40% fewer views compared to the previous period. Google continued to drive traffic to my podcast pages due to SEO optimizations, ensuring a steady stream of new traffic. However, without promotion, this viewership decreased.Consumption Impact: There was also a decline in consumption, with listeners not engaging as deeply with the episodes. This is consistent with attracting "cold traffic" – new audiences unfamiliar with my content.Inactive Status on Platforms: My podcast showed as inactive on some platforms, which could discourage potential sponsors or new listeners who want active content creators. Despite this, I continued to receive numerous pitches for guest spots, despite not featuring guests for a while.Embracing Major ChangesNow, let's discuss some exciting news I previously shared on Instagram. Initially, I planned for about 20 episodes of solos and interviews, but I've decided against it. I'm moving from Dallas, Texas to Bentonville, Arkansas due to my husband's job! To ensure consistency, I've pre-recorded all content in my office. This means a consistent look and sound for the show - something extremely important if you're trying to create a professional image of your show.The Three M's: Marketing, Metrics, and MindsetThe theme for this season is very strategic: Marketing, Metrics, and Mindset. These elements are crucial and interrelated. During my coaching and consulting sessions, I often see clients benefitting from adjustments in these areas. Here's a peek into the topics we'll cover:Passively Attracting and Converting Listeners: Learn how to enhance your podcast profile and attract listeners without aggressive promotion.Crucial Podcast Metrics: Discover the top three podcast metrics that every business

Dive into today's podcast where I, alongside Alvin Bowles, VP of Global Business Group - Americas at Meta, and Susan Jones, Chief Digital Officer at Diageo, dissect the current landscape of marketing at a candid fireside chat at Cannes. I share my thoughts on the power social media has to attract attention from consumers and how businesses are still looking to spend their money on TV ads. We also talk about the way we are scoring our own ads and how it's historically been a situation where we are "grading our own homework"- just because a commercial runs, doesn't mean anyone saw it. This is a great episode for anyone in the marketing world, whether you're just starting out or are the CMO of your company. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think of this episode!
