https://lnkd.in/gDPEDrN5 Great quick article for any #CMO of a startup or #privateequity backed tech company. "Which is why business leaders talking to data-driven board members stick with what can be measured – marketing’s contribution to the near-term pipeline. However, that only tells half the story, and honestly, it does marketing (and the value of your board) a disservice." What if you could tell the other half of the story in financial terms that board members do understand? Revup Marketing, Inc. #MarketingROI

Understanding the mechanics of a "great partner" allows us to: 🔍 Adopt Best Practices: Implementing best practices learned from top partners to enhance how we offer value. 🎯 Selective Evaluation: Being more discerning and strategic when evaluating new partnerships, ensuring alignment and mutual benefit. By embracing these principles, we foster stronger, more fruitful partnerships that drive success for all parties involved.
