Today’s fast-paced modern business landscape demands that businesses deliver responsive, engaging experiences across multiple touchpoints and at all stages of a customer’s journey. To be able to meet these needs, organizations must now make Digital Asset Management (DAM) a strategic business priority.
Since the outset of digital publishing in the 1990s, digital libraries have housed brand images, text and graphics accessible through basic search features and early metadata indexing. But now everything is digital; online buyer research and digital marketing dominates, and eCommerce rules. So digital libraries have exploded in volume and usage. But enterprise can no longer organize their vast libraries of content using ad hoc point solutions or simple tools like email and spreadsheets.
This presentation will discuss how the management of digital assets has now become mission-critical to most organizations. It explains how to set up a strategic DAM project and how to consider the right technology partner.
The lead management application can be delivered as a stand-alone technology offering, a set of lead management functions that form part of a broader customer relationship management (CRM) offering, part of a sales force automation (SFA) offering, or part of a marketing suite. Applications can be provided as multitenant SaaS, single-tenant SaaS or on-premises solutions.
The market for marketing lead management platforms continues to grow. More and more buyers are now doing their own, primarily digital, research and not meeting with sales reps. So in response, many companies have invested into their marketing departments to create compelling educational and selling content about their offerings. These digital engagements are growing in number and becoming more complex and significant, so more-robust lead management solutions are needed. In other cases, process automation is replacing the manual processes used by marketing and sales teams.
