Clients Increasingly Require Engineering Expertise to Implement Marketing Operations Management Technologies
PlazaBridge Group, LLC, a services and technology firm specialized in innovation commercialization and revenue growth consulting, announced today the creation of a new practice focused on Marketing Operations Management and engineering services to support the newest growth hacking tools and applications.
The emerging systems for automating marketing and sales operations are radically altering the emphasis and priorities of CIOs and CMOs, even to the extent of blurring their respective job functions. An increased need for supplemental talent which can both bridge the marketing acumen necessary to understand detailed customer experience analytics and the technical experience to implement complicated systems is driving increased services revenues.
Marketing Operations Management revenue is expected to continue double-digit growth rates according to leading software research firms. Although 76% of large SaaS firms already utilize automation platforms, the migration to medium and small businesses is expected to drive growth well into 2018. This growth includes services in implementation planning, key requirements definitions, systems utilization support and continuing operations management. According to a recent study CMOs are expected to seek outside technical assistance to minimize impact to existing IT resources.
“Our clients increasingly seek our experience managing and optimizing the complex array of marketing systems” stated PlazaBridge Group General Partner, Richard Spangler. “Though the platform providers strive for ease of use, we know this is simply not the case. Technical knowhow is an absolute requirement in making these applications work for the business, rather than the other way around.”
