Description

As a marketer in the digital environment, you’ve been promised the ability to finely analyze and plan your marketing spend—and you would expect that digital spend to be far more effective and measurable. But as we’ve all experienced, it’s harder than ever to understand where to place your spend and how to assess its value. This presentation will explain the challenges of the digital marketing ecosystem and how each participant crafts their message to their own benefit, resulting in a fuzzy picture of what’s working and how to measure ROI. Learn how to cut through the noise and pick up a strong, clear signal on how your digital marketing dollars are doing the job—or not.
