Following an era of “growth at all costs,” many organizations are pulling back due to the uncertain economic climate, and efficiency is now the name of the game.
In an effort to improve efficiency, marketing teams are tightening their budgets and focusing on campaigns that produce maximum results. Delivering value to customers and stakeholders is more important than ever, and having real-time, end-to-end visibility into campaign performance is crucial for marketing success.
To achieve this, teams must efficiently execute impactful multi-channel campaigns and measure their outcomes. Easily digestible data is essential for understanding and sharing marketing impact with stakeholders. However, limited visibility across campaigns and channels makes this challenging. Different teams often manage channels and produce separate reports, resulting in time wasted consolidating resources and findings.
This is where Wrike comes in, offering unparalleled support as a comprehensive work management platform for marketing and creative teams.
The need for a single source of truth
The pressure is on for marketing teams to prove their strategies are driving results, despite having fewer resources to execute work. Identifying and implementing impactful campaigns across multiple channels and measuring success is a challenge if you don’t have real-time visibility across every project and campaign. And what’s hampering that visibility? Too many disconnected apps.
As a result of remote and hybrid work, organizations deployed more applications to support disparate teams, and marketers now use 15 apps on average each day to complete work. Because of this surge in applications, employees and heads of departments find it increasingly difficult to understand exactly what work is underway and its progress; what has been completed; and how that work relates to, supports, or even counteracts strategic initiatives and company goals. The result is the Dark Matter of Work. Just as CERN identified Dark Matter as the “invisible” content that makes up 95% of the mass of the universe, the Dark Matter of Work represents activity and information that we can’t immediately see but that has a powerful influence on everything around it.
Dark Matter exists in texts, apps, video calls, spreadsheets, and conversations, and has a gravitational mass that can easily pull business and projects in the wrong direction. Most business function leaders only have visibility into 55% of the work taking place within their departments. And only 37% of business leaders understand how their teams are performing against goals and objectives.
Marketers need an integrated platform to easily access and present performance metrics and communicate impact more meaningfully. This is where Wrike excels.
