Comprehensive Best Practices Guide Sets New Standard for Driving Social Marketing ROI
SAN MATEO, Calif. – September 2012 – Marketo, the leading provider of cloud-based marketing software, announced its all new Definitive Guide to Social Marketing. With 80+ pages of fresh content, expert insight and proven best practices, the latest in Marketo’s series of industry-leading workbooks helps marketers understand how to make every marketing campaign social, and how to implement social marketing strategies to improve lead generation and revenue growth.
Today, social is more than just a channel or tactic; it is a strategy that should be present in every aspect of marketing. Marketo’s Definitive Guide to Social Marketing explains how marketers can unlock the peer-to-peer communications and recommendations that are inherent in social to amplify the impact of every campaign. This guide is an all-purpose, go-to handbook that offers actionable strategies for all marketers, whether just starting out or already equipped with a well-defined social marketing plan.
In the past, marketers have thought of social marketing primarily as listening, responding, and publishing social updates. Although those are important, today’s marketer also needs to incorporate social into every marketing strategy. The real promise of the social explosion for marketers isn’t about updating a corporate feed; it’s about turning fans and customers into an army of powerful brand advocates.
“People trust what their friends and peers have to say about a company much more than they trust what the company has to say about itself,” said Jon Miller, vice president of marketing content and strategy at Marketo. “The Definitive Guide to Social Marketing shows companies how to tap into the power of peer-to-peer influence to amplify the reach and impact of every marketing campaign. It shares detailed strategies for leveraging the top social networks, and for adding a social component to every campaign you run.”

1.) Marketers need to focus on REVENUE metrics to earn a seat at the revenue table.
2.) Marketers need to move from quantity KPI’s to quality KPI’s.
3.) Marketers need to stop throwing ALL leads over the fence to the sales team as this creates cherry picking from the sales team and tension between both marketing and sales about true “lead quality”.
4.) Marketers need to start their strategic marketing planning with a Revenue target and work backwards. Identity how many leads they need at each stage of the Revenue Cycle to ensure their sales team hit their revenue target.
5.) Marketers need to escape “Excel Hell” by centralising all of their marketing data (email, search, web, mobile, display) in a Marketing Automation Database and then integrate this database with their internal CRM database.
6.) Marketers need to set up a scoring methodology which allows them to score their prospects and customers explicit data e.g. demographic as well as their implicit data e.g. web, search, email behaviour to ensure they focus on those customers who are highly engaged and prioritise those that need follow up.
7.) Marketers need to take those prospects and customers who are are not yet ready to engage with sales and place them into nurturing campaigns. Marketers need to A/B test the content of these campaigns to ensure they are targeting each prospect and customer with relevant content with is creating action e.g. a click.
8.) Marketers need to analyse the key touchpoints and influences within the prospect and customer lifecycles to identify which marketing channels are having an impact at specific stages of the buyers journey.
9.) Marketers need to focus on identifying trends in their data and taking action on their insights to ensure they optimise what’s working and what’s not.
10.) Marketers need to aim for the end goal of Marketing Automation which is being able to predict marketing’s impact on revenue contribution to an organisation.
