To address client challenges, Munvo proposed to conduct a strategic marketing operations assessment, focused on analyzing the maturity of the marketing function and delivering actionable recommendations and tools as solutions.
As part of the assessment, we hosted workshop discovery sessions with client stakeholders and vendors, centered on strategy, data, people, process, and technology. This groundwork allowed us to perform a gap analysis, comparing the current state of marketing to the industry leading state, and design solutions aligned to a rational state. Outputs of the assessment included following deliverables to address previous challenges:
1. The creation of a detailed RACI matrix to clarify roles and responsibilities, coupled with a governance plan to effectively oversee the hybrid model of internal and external management of marketing operations.
2. Strategic alignment between social media communication pillars and CRM pillars, with the creation of new personas including a mapping of key activities (e.g., new customer journeys, A/B testing strategies, new data models) to execute on the new strategy.
3. A marketing maturity roadmap focused on developing a 360-degree view of the customer to increase personalization, targeted segmentation, and contact management best practices, ultimately leading to IT conversations to plan the integration of new data sources and preference center subscription options
4. The design of a campaign management process map displaying the relationship between key roles and key operational activities per phase of the process, including a plan to further utilize the existing MRM tool (i.e., the creation of intake forms, project templates and tasks, approval process, etc.) to manage internal and external team collaborations.
Finally, a collaborative transition plan was established for moving Adobe Campaign Classic operational tasks to a combined effort of internal teams and external partners, ensuring a seamless evolution of the client’s marketing capabilities. This comprehensive approach was designed to not only rectify existing limitations but also to foster a robust framework for ongoing growth and success in the client’s marketing endeavors.
By outsourcing essential marketing functions to an acclaimed agency within PlusCo, we freed up the client’s internal resources, allowing them to concentrate on more strategic tasks. The adoption of a hybrid operating model is set to boost digital conversions by 8% over the next year, enhancing their marketing capabilities. This model, supported by a partnership with external digital marketing experts, enables the client to adopt a data-driven mindset, vital for refining customer engagement strategies. With the introduction of A/B testing for campaign strategies, the client gains deeper insights into customer behavior and the impact of their marketing efforts. This strategic shift not only optimizes current operations but also positions the client for sustained success in a competitive market.
