Entrepreneurs are obsessed with the chase: They love to throw out goals and then try to run them down. One “shiny object” many entrepreneurs chase is their branding strategy. Companies today are spending big bucks on marketing, advertising, public relations, and more, and for good reason: Valuations and adoptions are seemingly created on the pages of TechCrunch. The problem, however, is that these companies are merely chasing lightning in a bottle.
Deep into the second quarter, the chief marketing officer of a restaurant chain arrives at work to find that the CEO has dropped by. In this business, as in many others, “CMO” means chief revenue officer to the CEO, who’s here to talk sales. “There’s only a month left,” he says, “and I need a boost to compensate for what we lost because of the weather. The data analysts over in IT tell me we get the highest response to burger and apps offers. So, time for some coupons?”

Most marketers know that it can be up to 5x more cost-effective to retain an existing customer than to acquire a new one, yet only 16% of companies put their primary marketing focus on customer retention.
Social media activities are a function of Marketing, just as PR, Communications and Customer Service should be.
In many ways, email is one of the first internet marketing tools. Before everyone could own their own website and before there was social media to help marketers reach a target audience, there was email. Though the usefulness of a particular piece of technology often fades with time, this hasn’t been the case with email marketing. A recent study found that email remains an important force for marketing, even when reaching younger demographics.
In 2015, one out of five demand marketers used retargeting campaigns to improve conversion rates (source: regalix). Plenty of brands run plenty of traditional banner and email retargeting campaigns using their own first party data to bring back those cart and search abandoners — and they’ve certainly seen some satisfying incremental sales from those campaigns!
