The Measurement Program

How to run in-house marketing measurement like the mission-critical system it is, with an owner, a cadence, a governance model, and shared accountability. This paper is the operating manual for treating measurement the way mature organizations treat their CRM.

Agentic Unified Marketing Measurement

Inside Revops / Analytics

Stronger independence and cross-functional reach. Works when the central function is service-oriented, not bureaucratic.
