The Three Lenses of Marketing Clarity

When was the last time you heard of CEOs shoveling money into marketing efforts? Most of the time, marketing executives have to squeeze out every dime possible then stretch those dimes to produce.

Nicholas discusses (12:30 and later) how every marketer must be able to see, understand, and demonstrate marketing's effectiveness through three different lenses:

breadth—what channels your customers spend time and how you're meeting them.

depth—the data you're leveraging to make sure your messages are on point, relevant, and delivered at the right time.

orchestration—how you've filled your marketing department with the right people and the right tools.

"Marketers are the promise-makers for your company." —Nicholas Holland

HubSpot's Five "Primary Colors" of Marketing

How do you guide your prospects along a meaningful and coherent buyer journey? HubSpot's platform is built to orchestrate these five aspects for clear marketing. These five aspects of marketing—primary colors—expose themselves in every aspect of marketing.

Data—they layer that powers everything. Data and the way you manage it, store it, and interpret it means the difference between good and bad decisions.

Automation—the ability to do more with less.

Reporting—the feedback loop allowing everyone to be more savvy and to better judge performance.

Content—most pieces of software contain content. Are you doing enough to maximize it?

Messaging—the channels you distribute marketing content (e.g., email, blog, podcast, etc.)
