28th February 2024 - 8 PM IST | 9.30 AM EST

Exploring Demand Effectiveness Vs Demand Efficiency

The dynamic landscape of digital transformation has ushered in novel trends that reverberate across industries globally, triggering a profound impact on the marketing ecosystem. Traditional workflows are undergoing rapid metamorphosis, necessitating an intensified focus on devising innovative strategies. These strategies not only ensure sustained visibility but also drive tangible demand for businesses seeking to navigate the evolving marketplace successfully.

In the midst of this transformative era, the surge in customer data generation, coupled with the advent of AI tools extracting valuable insights, has exponentially heightened the pressure on organizations to enhance Return on Investment (ROI) within a relatively short timeframe.

Simultaneously, the role of Chief Marketing Officers (CMOs) has expanded exponentially in the contemporary landscape. CMOs are tasked with promoting holistic growth, bearing the responsibility of unlocking the full potential of both pre-existing and newly available marketing channels. Their goal is to generate effective demand for an organization and its service offerings, weaving together a tapestry of strategies to navigate the complexities of the modern market.

This virtual panel aims to bring together industry leaders and CMOs to share insights, strategies, and best practices in navigating the challenges posed by the evolving digital landscape while maximizing demand effectiveness and efficiency in marketing efforts.
