Especially if, like many other businesses, your marketing budget is decreasing year on year. Seven strategies coming right up:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Identify your organization\u2019s goals and objectives before starting<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of the business industry, a CFO\u2019s responsibility is to ensure that the marketing budget allocated positively impacts the organization\u2019s goals and objectives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, say an ecommerce business is launching a brand new range of products to reach an untapped target customer base. They would need marketing strategies and a budget for market research, customer personas, and plenty of social media and paid ads.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Organize your team<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before determining marketing spend, it\u2019s crucial to assemble your sales and marketing teams so that everyone is on the same page. Conversions are much more likely when your CMOs, sales, and marketing departments work together to generate high-quality leads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A transparent approach to your digital marketing activities is not only best for collaboration, but to also generate feedback and opinions about marketing tactics from different teams within your business.<\/span><\/p><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Employ outcome-based channels<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maximizing your marketing budget means exploring avenues such as performance marketing. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/affise.com\/blog\/performance-marketing-definition\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">definition of performance marketing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is to reward partnered marketers following the success of a marketing strategy. This is typically measured by a sales metric like a conversion or click.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partnership marketing is a very successful method when like-minded business partnerships are formed. Partnership marketing channels include:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social media\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sponsored content<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Affiliate marketing<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Native advertising\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Search engine marketing (SEM)<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employing performance marketing activities can greatly increase your brand\u2019s reach in the places you want to engage your target audience.
