What is marketing technology? | MarTech Challenges | Bob Musilek | LocaliQ Consulting

 


The Biggest Challenge MarTech Presents To Business

What is marketing technology (martech)? 


Its Data | Content and Experience | Commerce and Sales | Advertising and Promotion, the blending of Marketing technology. MarTech, is software that facilitates and executes marketing activities.

 Marketers use it to work more efficiently, communicate more effectively, and measure their efforts. The collection of the tools used by a team or department is called a martech stack. The tools in one's martech stack are often integrated, or used together, to enhance and optimize the content and creative workflow.

MarTech can be a point of frustration for many business. It has become absolutely essential that businesses today take advantage of available technologies if they want to effectively reach and grow their audiences


MarTech success is largely tied to the tech itself. If you’re unable to quickly move between platforms or bring on new services seamlessly, as needed, then you risk being left behind.

Avoid The Pit Fit Falls of MarTech 

  1. Leading with technology before strategy.
  2. Non-existent or deficient business case.
  3. Lack of experienced marketing leadership to drive the project.
  4. Getting swept up in the excitement of martech rather than a detailed capability and vendor fit audit.
  5. Wrong tool selection.
  6. Insufficient marketing organizational readiness to successfully adopt and utilize the technology.
  7. No infrastructure to support the technology investment (data models and systems administration, most notably)
  8. Poor integration planning (i.e. tools are siloed)

Power of YouTube 30 | 15 | 6 second Video Campaign Study | Launch


 Maximize Brand Awareness and Drive Conversions

YouTube's unique power lies in its ability to help brands and businesses at different points along the maturity spectrum. Looking even beyond 2020 and the pandemic, online video, including YouTube, can help businesses create brand affinity that drives increased purchases and builds long-term brand relationships.
This new campaign is going Live 1.11.21





6 second video Increases brand awareness and drive conversions.


 Bob Musilek tested 30-second, 15 second video ads and 6-second video ads on YouTube to see which was more effective. In this case, the 6-second ad delivered a 12% increase in estimated ad recall, 19% increase in return on ad spend and 245% increase in video completion rate—proving to be most effective in driving results for the Nextech brand. The 15 & 6-second ads also resulted in incremental lift across several other key metrics including conversion rate, and clickthrough rate.

The test also showed that viewers are more likely to recall an ad that quickly communicates the message and grabs people’s attention. Average watch time for both the 6-second and 15-second video ads were very close, but ad recall was significantly higher for the 6-second ads.

Video view drop off on the 30 second video was 50% at the 15 second mark. Inconclusion all three videos worked well and the key to success is using a 30 second video story board to create the 15 & 6 second video for consistency. Using smart editing strategies is a big cost savings say's Bob Musilek Senior Digital Strategist " increasing the clients ROI by over 37%" This makes a difference when business owners are trying to keep marketing budgets in check, and maximize brand awareness  Musilek concludes.
