Marketers and content creators working in industries such as retail, manufacturing, wholesale, distribution, or marketing and creative agencies struggle with disconnected processes that only increase their workloads. Hubspot’s 2024 State of Marketing report found that only 59% of marketers reported that their tools are interconnected.
While much of this disconnect occurs at all stages of the content lifecycle, getting it right at the beginning – during the planning and briefing process – is a good place to start. This means connecting workflow management tools like monday.com to content creation platforms.
A modern retail business deals with more moving parts than traditional brick-and-mortar stores. You might serve customers in a physical store, but they also interact with your brands and products throughout the day. Social influencers promote products during your customers’ personal time, which leads to research during the day, with a final online purchase potentially made in the evening.
The list of channels available to engage with your customers (and just as importantly, for them to engage with you) continues to grow. Long-standing platforms such as LinkedIn and Instagram remain relevant, while new platforms like TikTok have become places for brands to communicate with customers.
Cloud storage has changed the way we store, share and collaborate online. It is regarded as a secure, simple means of accessing data from anywhere at any time.
Product ideation, promotion and lifecycle is something we take for granted as a consumer. We are bombarded with new and existing products from brands; for the sake of branding awareness, promotions and campaigns. The average consumer may not consider what goes into getting those products to market and what is included in the content creation, management and distribution process.
Marketing Resource Management (MRM) is a set of software tools that supports strategy and workflow optimisation for marketing departments.
We live in a digital world. Digital channels have largely replaced physical channels in most walks of professional and personal life. Digital news is replacing physical newspapers. Many businesses do not have a physical representation to engage with clients. But most have a website which is on and ready for business, 24x7. Websites, online stores, applications and platforms require one factor in complete order to remain competitive: properly managed digital assets.
