Some Key Take-Aways:
- Build the strategy before you build the tool
- Know exactly what it is you’re lookin to use the data or automations for before you engage an implementation partner
- Have marketing and sales stakeholders involved in the planning and implementation of new tools to make sure they are going to solve the actual problems those departments are facing. If you wait until the tool is built to simply train them on it you’re likely to realize you’ve missed crucial questions or data points.
- Create hyper-personalized emails for recipients beyond the traditional mail merge/Name fields. What information do you already have about this person? Have they filled out interest surveys? Come to specific topic based webinars? Use that information to send only truly relevant content and your open rates will soar
- If you are a Salesforce Admin looking to get into Marketing Cloud, the best way to do this is with on the job training
- Remember, you have loads of transferrable skills as an Admin that will help you with Marketing Cloud, the skills to really focus on are the soft skills: communication, understanding your clients’ pain points, digging into feature requests and helping them think through their tools
