The document discusses marketing performance management (MPM) and how it can help companies by linking marketing processes, metrics, and technology to business objectives to gain insights and prove marketing's value. MPM is impacted by an organization's processes, people, and technology, and issues often arise if metrics are not well-designed, indicators do not reflect objectives, data is outdated, or collection and delivery of insights is too manual. The House of Marketing offers a 4-step approach and methodology to implement MPM and tackle common issues.

of Marketing
“THoM’s pragmatic approach is to me a key differentiator,
as they are able to talk the language of actual executors
and to predict or foresee many operational issues we need
to tackle.”
“We appreciated that the THoM team supported us in
(Ronald Hannet, BU Manager) the bottom up approach involving customers,
prospects, sales, specialists.”
(Danny Vandevyver, Head of Marketing
Com Belux)
“THoM succeeded in creating change thanks to
their straightforward and efficient solutions and
approach.” “The added value of THoM is that they do not only
deliver strategic advice, but their recommendations
(Michael De Koster, Segment Manager) are tangible and can be implemented.”
(Luc Deflem, CEO)
