Market Charlotte 2016: Technology and Agile Marketing
I was the Events Elect Chair for CAMA’s biggest event of the year!
Start Your ‘Agile’ Process at Market Charlotte 2016
Market Charlotte 2016 will focus on embracing the power of marketing and technology. However, for marketers, embracing technology is not just about adopting new tools and platforms. It also involves embracing changes in mindset and methodology. It’s about striving to work smarter and faster for better results.
That’s where Agile Marketing comes in.
Along with many other benefits, Agile allows more effective use of the abundance of data technology provides. But as you can already guess, implementing changes in mindset and methodology does not happen overnight. It’s an ongoing and constantly-evolving process. A great way to start is by becoming more educated on the principles of Agile. And who better to hear from than the two featured speakers at Market Charlotte 2016: Roland Smart from Oracle and Russ Lange from CMG Partners.
Smart, a product-oriented marketing leader who serves as the VP of Social & Community Marketing at Oracle, recently published a book on the topic, The Agile Marketer: Turning Customer Experience Into Your Competitive Advantage (you will receive a free copy at the event!)
Lange, a marketer with the mind of an engineer, brings a data-crunching analytical mind to clients’ marketing efforts through all touch points. CMG Partners offers two free downloadable research reports: The Agile Advantage: The Mindset and The Agile Advantage: The Methodology.
