10. WHY Marketing Performance Management?
Marketing is the most
strategic role within an
organization.
Marketers at all levels are
under pressure to deliver
and prove business results.
The C-Suite wants to rely
on Marketing to show
where business comes
from and how to pursue
future sales goals.
Facts and data will always
trump guessing and
assumptions
Marketing is the only
function that touches
customers in multiple ways
from pre-inquiry through
post-sale.
More than ever, marketing
technology enables
marketers to capture data
that measures revenue
influence.

14. Create the MPM Mindset
• A strategic process that measures how demand generation
contributes to overall sales revenues while looking at customer
touch points, campaigns, channels, budget, and timelines.
• MPM evaluates marketing results or output compared against
its objectives and goals.
• The process of tracing each dollar of revenue back to activity
touchpoints that source the revenue opportunity.

15. • 71.3% of marketing organizations
have increased accountability for
revenue goals
• 61.8% achieve or exceed revenue
goals as a result of increased
marketing accountability and
responsibility
• The #1 ranked success factor for
achieving revenue goals is an
effective marketing and sales
partnership
©Heinz Marketing 2017©Heinz Marketing 2017
16. CMOs must show business impact
Via the CMO Council
• 2016 saw record CMO job loss
• #1 Reason: CMO’s unable to show
business impact
• Critical: Financial impact analytics
“…there’s nothing more necessary
to CMO success and longevity than
having the proof of how marketing
is driving the business forward in a
multiplicity of unique and powerful
ways…”
-Donovan Neale-May, CMO
Council
“Marketers appear to be doing a poor job of quantifying and communicating the business value and financial impact
their campaigns and investments. Less than a quarter of respondents believe they are doing this extremely well or qu
30% nearly are still putting measurement systems in place or have no solution for tracking business outcomes.”

66. 2018 Planning and MPM Checklist (page 1)
Category Stakeholders Description Benefits Organizational
Readiness & Required
Actions
Strategic Alignment CMO, CFO, CSO The most critical part of
successful MPM. Cross
functional departments accept
their roles in sourcing,
influencing and driving revenue
Teams are focused on shared
revenue goals and roles for
achieving success. Transparency
also builds trust and teamwork.
Review 2017 Performance CMO Review the current year’s
revenue performance. Only use
vanity metrics as research
footnotes to support overall
data.
Provides insights on the
starting point to compare
performance in the new year.
Benchmark Funnel Performance CEO, CMO, CSO Deep data dive into reviewing
the full funnel from Inquiry,
MQL, SQL, Opportunity and
Close. Benchmarks show
performance at each stage and
identify areas to optimize and
improve in campaigns, channels,
training, sales process
consistency across reps.
Focus resources where they are
most needed. Significant
revenue lift can occur by
improving sales process and
deep funnel nurture campaigns.
2018 Revenue Goals CEO, CMO, CFO, CSO Marketing agrees to Sourced
and Influenced Revenue
Cross organizational alignment
and focused effort with revenue
goals.

67. 2018 Planning and MPM Checklist (page 2)
Category Stakeholders Description Benefits Organizational Readiness
& Required Actions
2018 Campaign Strategy CMO Plan the campaigns that will source
and influence revenue with full
funnel marketing. 2017
performance metrics help guide
the best areas to invest in and the
best performing channels.
Full funnel marketing sources and
accelerates revenue. Marketing
isn’t just focused on lead
generation. Sales can accelerate
with deep funnel marketing
campaigns.
Budget Planning – Invest for
Success
CMO and CFO The financial model that shows
where sourced revenue will come
from.
A financial model puts the CMO
and CFO on the same page to help
plan for the best areas to invest or
cut budgets.
Organizational Expectations CMO, CSO, C-Suite, Department
Heads
Communicate where marketing is
accountable and focused as well as
areas not covered. Set the
guardrails to prevent mission creep.
Reinforces alignment by setting
expectations where marketing
resources are focused for revenue
success. Prevents the inevitable
scope creep that often falls to
marketing.
Data Management CMO Reliable measurements require
accurate data.
Critical for effective MPM.
Capture accurate data to provide
reliable and credible insights
Systems, Tools, Process CMO A central system of record is the
single source of truth. All
technologies with relevant data
must integrate with the SOR. MPM
and attribution are essential to the
mix.
MPM and attribution solutions
aggregate the necessary data to
identify sourced and influenced
revenue as well as budget ROI.

68. Category Stakeholders Description Benefits Organizational
Readiness & Required
Actions
Standardized Reports CMO Monthly, quarterly, and annual
reporting should focus on
revenue metrics that matter..
Marketing spends too much
generating monthly reports
with metrics that don’t matter.
All revenue stakeholders must
agree to standardize of the
critical funnel metrics. Rathole
drill down exercises can be
handled on a case-by-case
basis.
Assess, Adapt, Optimize All – Execs and Team Leads Review the Big 5 KPIs for
leading indicators to improve
or pursue.
Successful modern marketing
requires continual
improvement. Encourage
experimentation, testing,
innovation.
Guide Future Performance CMO Where Marketing Performance
Management delivers true
value by guiding future
revenue efforts in the most
efficient and effective means
possible.
Historical data on revenue
performance helps guide
where to invest budget
resources in the right
channels.

Editor's Notes Monthly and Quarterly Business Reviews
Vanity metrics
MQLs – what’s the point?
Where is the revenue coming from?
What are the RESULTS?
Slide 20-21: We have slightly different stages and definitions, which is fine, but just make sure folks know that this is an example. We generally talk about lead, MQL, SAL, SQL (meeting stage), Opp, Close.
Slide 20-21: We have slightly different stages and definitions, which is fine, but just make sure folks know that this is an example. We generally talk about lead, MQL, SAL, SQL (meeting stage), Opp, Close.
Slide 23: I would also mention something around lead to MQL conversion--too high or too low? Depends on business case and scoring can be adjusted to address some of these issues Slide 26: For the planning process, we suggest looking at the data before you even come up with objectives--you need to know what works before you can think about putting a program plan in place. This might be "before the cart" if someone hasn't purchased attribution, but they should at leas know how to pull some data
Slide 30: I am not sure the difference between revenue sourced and value creation (net-new revenue). You have revenue sourced in here, but not influenced (I only see pipeline influence), but we talk a lot about mid and late funnel marketing programs that people can run to influence revenue later in the sales funnel. Other KPIs we talk about, increasing deal velocity, increasing ASP
Attribution
Identifies customer engagement points from first touch through to sales close. Attribution points identify channels, campaigns
So we now want to measure the funnel aligned with marketing and sales, by following the many different paths that people take. With those paths we can weigh and measure how well marketing performs.
