What stops good reporting?

• Garbage IN= Garbage OUT – Enter all the data, clean up, normalize

• Not sure what reports are available in Marketo– Get training, Product Docs, Community or use consulting services

• Not enough time to build the reports– Dedicate time and set the correct expectations with all stakeholders

• No processes in place to track the correct data– Train everyone in the team to follow the process and understand

where to get the data from

• Not sure what is the best way to track costs– Pick your attribution model and stick with it!!! Consistency is crucial!

• Lack of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) – Decide what is important for you and how often you will monitor

First Touch vs. Multi Touch

First Touch Attribution

• Acquisition determines marketing influence. Program success is not necessary

• Only one program can get credit for acquiring the lead

• Acquisition must happen before opportunity created to get pipeline credit

• Acquisition must happen before opportunity closes to get revenue credit

Multi-Touch Attribution

• Program Success determines marketing influence

• Multiple Programs can get credit for a single opportunity

• Success must happen before opportunity created to get pipeline credit

• Success must happen before opportunity closes to get revenue credit
