How to release the power of marketing organizations ?

This is an ongoing challenge faced by marketers who are struggling day after day to organize their activities effectively in a timely manner. However, they must keep the pace with the increasing demand for digital content, while controlling their operational costs.

How to release the power of marketing organization?

Clearly, there are some market responses to the ever-changing modifications related to the growing marketing complexity:

• Collaborative platforms more or less adaptable to the environment of the marketing and communication trades,
• Marketing automation applications, each evolving in its own ecosystem and creating new technological silos, (the number of martech applications has thus been multiplied by more than 25 in 5 years, from 150 in 2011 to more than 3,850 in 2016 **),
• Many solutions for the management and distribution of digital content (Adserver, DAM, ECM), often fragmented which require juxtaposing several tools to obtain an efficient result at the cost of superhuman efforts.

However, no solution provides a comprehensive, adequate and simple response that enables marketing teams to become master of their activities. These solutions often work independently without ensuring interconnectivity, which does not promote business agility, making the collaboration more difficult, and extend deadlines and costs.
