More companies are looking to adopt marketing mix modeling (MMM) to measure marketing efficiency and make predictions about how marketing inputs could impact sales. While it's not a new technique, MMM has come a long way in the past few years, driven by new technologies like machine learning and AI. As a result, MMM is faster, more easily automated, more efficient, and widely accessible to businesses.  In this episode, our Global Brand Director, Kate Gleeson speaks with Zach Bricker, Lead Solutions Engineer at Supermetrics, and Igor Skokan, Marketing Science Director at Meta, to discuss implementing MMM. Zach and Igor break down what MMM is, how it's changed in recent years, and what types of data are used. They discuss how companies can validate the accuracy and reliability of MMM models, as well as how to turn that data into actionable results.  This episode comes from SuperSummit – a virtual event about marketing measurement and data.

Wharton School Professor of Marketing Peter Fader sometimes wishes he never used the words “Customer Centricity” in his first book, Customer Centricity, and his latest, The Customer Centricity Playbook. Because, to him, it’s not about THE customer, or even all customers. Rather, it’s about using data to figure out who are your most valuable customers. Those are the ones to center around. Fader joins the podcast for a discussion about the quantitative (or math) side of customer centricity and why we should all be celebrating “customer heterogeneity.” Listen to this episode to learn: • Why CMOs should be thinking like CFOs and embrace customer-based corporate valuation and customer lifetime value (CLTV) • The actuarial science of predicting customer behavior and “buy till you die” models • Why many companies are paralyzed with fear that they might suffer a viral customer service mishap and become the next “United Breaks Guitars” • How the valuations of IPOs like Lyft, Slack, Blue Apron, and Uber look different when you filter them through the customer lens • The one piece of advice Fader would give to marketers and executives For more information: petefader.com

Jeremy Knight spent 20 years as a B2B publisher creating publications for the private equity and fast growth business sectors. With digital technology, the Internet, and social web Jeremy believed making clients the publisher in a new media age was not just a good idea, it was the foundation for building a business. After all, building an audience was a better proposition than renting a list or leveraging third party routes to market, right? He launched Equinet Media in January 2009. Discovering HubSpot in 2011 was a game changer. The blending of a content marketing play with an inbound methodology propelled the business forward as everything we did for clients had measurable outcomes. Today Equinet is an Inbound Agency, working specifically for the manufacturing and professional services sectors, operating on the EOS system and delivering services through an agile scrum process.   What you’ll learn about in this episode: Jeremy’s transition from publisher to agency owner and the challenges he faced in that transition How Hubspot changed the game for Equinet -- even when it was far less powerful in 2011 than it is today Why CMOs are going to lead revenue and why sales and marketing are two halves of the same whole Hiring for attitude and training for aptitude instead of hiring based on skills alone Why you need to focus on developing different skills in all your team member when you keep all the work inside your agency and never outsource anything Why your team needs to have access to and understanding of the tools inside a tool like Hubspot, even if using them is not part of their day-to-day job What Agile is and how its point-based system works Learning how to implement Agile into your agency so that it matches up with inbound Why Agile doesn’t work the same for every agency and why you need to be ready to customize it Using Agile to figure out what works needs to be done to achieve the best results Why Jeremy uses two sets of points within Agile -- one for the value it provides a customer and another for the effort it takes his team Ways to contact Jeremy Knight: Website: www.equinetmedia.com Twitter: @TheJeremyKnight LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/jeremyknight Email: jeremy@equinetmedia.com We’re proud to announce that Hubspot is now the presenting sponsor of the Build A Better Agency podcast!

On this week's #MediaSnack we just think about Chief Marketing Officer, typically the company's most senior marketer. Check out the Harvard Business Review recent paper "Why CMOs never last" https://hbr.org/2017/07/the-trouble-with-cmos According to HBR, 80% of CEOs don't trust their CMO - you can see the pressure that a CMO is under when they don't have the trust of the C-Suite and perhaps that's why their tenure is often shorter than anyone else at that level. HBR also clarify different types of CMO and a framework (presumably for CEOs) to identify which type of CMO you might need for your business. Recently Coca-Cola replaced their departing CMO with a Chief Growth Officer which seems to be blending a sales and marketing role with more pointed focus on making marketing investment more accountable. Its also a reflection on the pressures on the businesses to deliver more short term results and growth. With perhaps less focus on long term brand building. Other companies like Colgate, Coty, Mondelez have also moved to this Growth Officer role - interesting to note that these are large consumer FMCG / CPG businesses. Is this because these companies can often have rather large gaps between marketing and sales culture. Alison Lewis, the CMO of J&J argues in Marketing Week that there is always a need for a senior executive in charge of the brand and that the CMO has always been in charge of growth. So why would you need a new title? https://www.marketingweek.com/2017/07/18/chief-growth-officer-johnson-johnso The evolution of the CMO role has got to be a good thing, improving accountability and placing far more scrutiny over marketing investments, especially the huge media budgets. Question of the Day: Will we see more Chief Growth Officers replacing the traditional CMO?
