Why the Smartest Companies Prioritize Marketing Operations

Blythe Brumleve

If you like revenue, you should be prioritizing marketing operations—aka MOPs.

 

So let’s talk about what MOPs includes: 

 

  • At its core, it’s about helping the company scale efficiently using data, people, and processes. 
  • Skills that a great marketing ops person has: 
    • Understanding people (and thus understanding the buyer’s journey)
      • What should (and more importantly, shouldn’t) be automated
      • What channels to be active on
    • Being able to look at the landscape of the business and its industry, what’s driving revenue, and how marketing plays a role in that environment. 

Marketing ops is a position that is typically hired too late in the process so in this episode, we're breaking down how you can start prioritizing it before it's too late.
