- Digital Amplification: Collaborate with demand generation and digital marketing teams to amplify event and field programs through digital channels, including email marketing, paid media, and social campaigns.
- Performance Measurement & Optimization: Establish clear goals, define key metrics, and relentlessly measure and report on the performance of all event and field marketing initiatives using key marketing KPIs (e.g., MQLs, CPL, opportunity sourcing and influence, conversion rates, ROI). Conduct post-event and campaign evaluations, analyze results, and make data-driven recommendations for continuous optimization. Reporting on monthly, quarterly, and annual cadences is required.
- Budget Management: Effectively manage the global event and field marketing budget, ensuring optimal allocation of resources to achieve maximum ROI.
- Vendor & Partner Management: Evaluate and grow partner demand generation opportunities. Build and nurture relationships with new and existing vendors, agencies, contractors and associations to enhance market penetration and program effectiveness.
