Guest: Matt Heinz

Yeah, yeah these are difficult times, but marketers are always faced with difficult times.  It is every marketer's job to over-come difficult times, be it market crashes, governments that stop buying, recessions, product failures, competitors, international meltdowns, hurricanes, tornadoes. 
As marketers, we've been there and done that and always found a way to recover because that's what we do.  That's why we were hired. We perform in the most difficult of times.  During this show Matt Heinz talks about:
"These are the times," Matt says, "Where there is a separation of marketers who understand what it is to create a market versus those in it for the quick win."
This is a time for great examples of empathetic and generous brands to create value
We will look back in six months and see those marketers that were investing in their future or which were fearful of their present
Will you accept your responsibility to rebuild your business?  Your country?  Will you be yourself, which is the builder of wealth for your company or just go after the quick win and abandon your principles?

“A lot of companies don’t think of marketing as builders of wealth,” says Matt Heinz.  “Marketing done the right way can generate not just sales, not just revenue impact, but significant profit for the organization.”
In this fast-paced interview, Matt discusses how marketing acquires the mentality of being a profit center for the company.  He touches on how marketing must foster a culture of revenue responsibility.  He covers:
Why the leverage marketing has is enormous
Why marketing spends too much time on tactical measurement, not enough time thinking about revenue responsibility
Technology is not your strategy, technology is an enabler of your strategy
How marketing creates value across the entire funnel not just the top of the funnel
The biggest obstacle for most companies to embrace revenue marketing is external, not internal
Most marketers think of marketing as the marketing of more: more clicks, more leads, more likes more impressions, and more may not be better
