Marketing automation is rapidly growing in adoption and with good reason - marketers get results. But full value is achieved only when marketing automation is fully deployed, and recent surveys reveal that it is largely under utilized. Each new level of marketing automation requires changes in programs, contents, metrics, skills, and processes. This webinar will outline the four basic levels of the marketing automation maturity cycle, the importance of sequentially moving from level to level, requirements for each level, setting realistic goals, and how to measure results.

Commercial Partner Relationship Management Software: New Advances, New Maturity

Channel-oriented tech vendors and other business-to-business (B2B) companies have had the need for partner relationship management (PRM) software systems to manage their critical, rapidly growing channel ecosystems since the 1980s and before. But commercial PRM software functionality has failed to keep pace with vendors'partner programs and process requirements. As a result, most B2B vendors were forced to resort to building their own PRM systems...until now. Forrester analyst Tim Harmon will explain how today's commercial PRM software solutions have caught up with the needs of channel professionals and are based on modern technology architectures that readily facilitate integration, customization, and extensibility. Expensive, proprietary PRM systems are no longer the only viable option, when today's advanced PRM technology delivers the type of innovative collaboration programs and processes needed to empower today's partner ecosystem.
