Adopting an Agile Approach to a Company Marketing Plan

A company marketing plan is a product-specific, market-specific, or company-wide strategic program that outlines the necessary steps to achieve marketing goals within a specific timeframe. CMOs and VPs are familiar with the benefits of marketing plans; however, applying Agile Marketing practices to create and execute that plan may pose a new challenge.

What is the agile advantage? Today, CMOs have a choice– be agile and adapt to the market by focusing on data-driven tests or follow the status quo and be left behind. Agile for Marketing (A4M™) represents a mindset and methods that manage change and foster cross-functional collaboration— all instrumental to creating an effective marketing plan. A4M aims to keep reality-based goal setting at the forefront, creating mini projects out of long-term deliverables for continuous improvement and faster response to market changes.
