Abstract
In this chapter, we will look at how, in a recession economy, a large software company with multiple product lines successfully delivered greater value to the business while reducing its marketing staff and budget by more than 50%. This case study will examine the application of an agile approach for organizational alignment, process transformation and optimization, and managerial leadership. We’ll look at how agile uses planning, iteration, and failures to ultimately succeed. We’ll also start with looking at how a software company took the Agile Manifesto and create the new Agile Marketing Manifesto:
-
■_People working together for a common goal over processes and tools
-
■_Campaigns that deliver vs. the same old marketing plans
-
■_Customer collaboration through crowdsourcing not through guesswork
-
■_Taking action over talking
