This episode features an interview with David Marine, Chief Marketing Officer at Coldwell Banker. David has been with the company for over 20 years in the marketing group. He created the first PowerPoint listing presentation in brand history, led the company’s exploration into virtual worlds, and helmed the successful real estate rebrand.
In this episode, Kailey sits down with David to discuss digitizing the real estate experience, tools for sellers, and ensuring tactics are adaptable across local markets.
-------------------
Key Takeaways:
- Automating your tactics is important for marketers to reach their audiences and save time and resources. Automation will help decide which strategies are most effective and easily adaptable for different segments.
- Data is everywhere, but it’s important to figure out if and how it is actionable so you can build off of it. Actionable data also ensures your teams are unified around growing the customer experience.
- When building out your team, focus on finding people who have similar goals in mind. It’s critical that you’re all on the same path, but also having differing opinions allows you to see all sides of the customer journey.
-------------------
“We're knee-deep in data but the key is, is it going to be actionable or not? I can have all this stuff, but if I'm not willing to do something from it, then it's completely worthless. So that's really the key. And that's also a mentality shift of how your organization is set up and how your teams are built around to get people focused on, ‘We need to use this to activate growth.’” – David Marine
