This week, Jeff Clark, former Forrester Research Director, was inspired by one of his old Forrester chums to discuss what’s wrong with B2B measurement. So, in this episode, he and Ian cover the following 5 points:
#1 – Buying complexity obscures so much
#2 – Technology sprawl gives us fractured data
#3 – AI-inflated hope drives an expectation gap
#4 – Measurement can’t keep up with a renewed emphasis on reputation investment
#5 – Exec Team is Not Onboard with What You’re Reporting
