Why Choose the Agile Marketing Methodology?

To Bridge Your Marketing Operations Gap

The operations gap has many names: waste, inefficiency, the marketing black hole. They all mean the underlying system is broken.

As audience expectations rise and channels proliferate, marketing must evolve to keep pace. Agile saved software development at the start of the twenty-first century, and it offers a way forward for marketers too -- if we approach it the right way.

Marketing Agility is Different

Agile Marketing is the antidote to inefficiencies and disjointed strategies. Unlike traditional marketing, it’s a modern way of thinking and working that is iterative, adaptive, data-driven, and customer-focused. Agile Marketing cuts through disruption and delivers proven results by increasing productivity, effectiveness, speed to market, and employee engagement. In short, if you want your marketing team to stop starting and start finishing, you need Agile Marketing.

Work In Progress (WIP) limits was key to our volume challenge - we learned to stop starting and start finishing, allowing the team to focus on fewer projects, with the highest-priority work to get done first.
