Heinz Marketing has released our 2017 Marketing Performance Management Report.
We surveyed over 250 B2B sales and marketing pros to learn how they achieve and measure revenue success. Through their insights we’ve learned how B2B marketing teams are managing, optimizing and reporting their results under increasing revenue accountability.
Our research shows the best-performing companies have marketing organizations that share revenue accountability with sales teams. Companies are missing sales goals when their marketing teams don’t have revenue accountability or responsibility!

• 71.3% of marketing organizations have increased accountability for revenue goals
• 61.8% achieve or exceed revenue goals because their marketing org has increased revenue accountability

Marketing Performance Management (MPM) measures how demand generation contributes to overall sales revenues while looking at customer touch points, campaigns, channels, budget, and timelines. Without MPM, marketers are guessing at campaign performance and where revenue was influenced and by how much. Strong MPM practices, team alignment, and revenue accountability are emerging requirements for a company’s success!
