Marketing Technology Reading List

July 31, 2015

Hey everyone, thanks for a great first week! We're at 141 subscribers and growing! I hope you enjoy this second edition and please, reach out if you'd like to help with choosing articles, I'd love to collaborate.

Hope you enjoyed last week's Growthverse visualization, this week I have 7 of my favorite picks from ProductHunt from the last few days for you to check out. I put them together on a board here. There are tools from B2B lead gen to beta invite amplification/gamification; let me know if these ProductHunt boards work for you!

I'm headed to Malaysia for the Techstars Community Leader Summit, so I may miss a week or two, but I promise to have an extra big digest on my return. If you want to help me while I am gone, just ping me.

Until next week!
Mitchell

Technology And Creativity Must Play Nice Together In The Marketing Sandbox

Mary Wallace - Marketing Land

Couldn't agree more! "From where I sit, the technical aspects of marketing (martech, automation, big data) are just as cool as the creative aspects (content development, campaign design, layout for an advertisement). Together they create, find, uncover and convert leads."

Will the CMO role fade with the rise of the chief marketing technologist?

Chris Le May - Marketing Magazine

"Many marketers have now become au fait with leveraging data from all kinds of channels, be it from CRM databases, market research or data from real-time advertising [...] with this comes the responsibility of knowing how to activate these new opportunities to shape the marketing and business strategy."

The 3 Reasons Content Marketers Will Fail Without Digital Asset Management

Jake Athey - Martech Advisor

"86 percent of B2B marketers and 77 percent of B2C marketers use content marketing, and 70 percent of marketers are producing more content now than they did a year ago. "

Getting Measurement of Content Marketing ROI Right

Rohit Roy - Martech Advisor

"Content marketers often do not receive the credit they deserve and their impact on revenue is usually undervalued. This is because they are unable to accurately measure the revenue generated by content marketing."

The first bachelor’s degree in marketing technology launches this fall

Dr. Kevin W. Tharp - Chiefmartec.com

"The focus of this article is on the core competencies, how to map them, and establishing a framework that will adapt as the core competencies change. The article then looks at changes in the way people learn about marketing technology competencies, the challenges of teaching such rapidly changing areas, and the role of industry in helping students to learn the field of marketing technology.

Drink responsibly, and mix your martech responsibly too

Jeremie Moritz - Chiefmartec.com

"When you see 15 year-old bloggers who use MailChimp segmentation and automation tools and get top-notch SEO rankings thanks to WordPress plugins, you start to question the way marketing and IT are divided."

Unbundled Software and the Golden Age of Marketing

Michael Sharkey - Entrepreneur.com

"Unbundled is the new bundled. Every industry has their defining ecosystem player -- except marketing. "

Marketing technology and advertising technology worlds are merging

Andrew Birmingham - LinkedIn

"Consumer behavior has shifted - there is not a single path anymore or even a single device. Consumers are using multiple devices and the customer journey is more nuanced."
