From infrastructure requirements to email design and emerging technologies, the Periodic Table of Email Optimization and Deliverability is a comprehensive new resource designed to guide you through the different elements required to keep your emails out of the spam folder and in front of your subscribers.

Direct mail is a tactic that's often overlooked when creating a multi-channel marketing strategy. But why? When you look at the numbers, there's no denying the power of a well executed direct mail campaign. It pulls response rates that range from five to nine times greater than that of email, paid search, or social media. So why aren't more marketers harnessing the power of online and offline channels to have more effective conversations with their target audience?
In this quick session with Outgage's CEO, Mika Kayt, we will walk through an in-depth analysis of how one publicly traded company saw engagement rates of 46% using Outgage to deliver high impact direct mail campaigns. As part of the session, you will also get a chance to unlock your own special direct mail campaign to really understand the simplicity and the power of a direct mail platform.
After this session, you'll have a fresh perspective on just how powerful direct mail can be and the steps you can take to motivate your audience to convert and engage more than ever before.

Mika Kayt is the CEO and founder of Outgage, a SaaS "marketing first" direct mail platform that bridges the gap between offline and online campaigns to create personalized brand experiences that result in effective conversations.

Marketing is a complex field, with evolving technologies, fast-paced processes, and data that must be analyzed, interpreted, and shared so you can continuously optimize those processes for better results. But when teams are using disconnected technology, analog workflows, and complicated processes, so much time is consumed with managing day-to-day tasks, that there is little time left to be more strategic in how work is optimized and managed, or to prove your value as a marketing team.
In this session, Yvonne Stacherski, Vice President, Marketing Operations at Comerica Bank, Don McAdang, Managing Director, Commercial Services at Leappoint, and Brent Bird, Director, Integrated Marketing at Workfront, will show how Comerica Bank has used technology implementation and integration, change management and process best practices to master modern marketing work.

Keynote
Platform business models have become one of the hottest topics in digital transformation. Whether you're laying the foundation of an innovation platform upon which others can build - such as iOS, Slack, or AWS - or creating a marketplace where producers and consumers can efficiently exchange value - such as Uber, Alibaba, and Airbnb - platforms harness the energy of digital communities around your business as a source of competitive advantage.
What if you reimaigned your internal marketing operations as an organizational platform? Everyone in the company is a potential producer. Every prospect and customer is a potential consumer. Your mission as the architect of this "platform" would be to empower a dynamic market of producers with the tools to create assets and services that could win and delight customers who consume them - at incredible speed and scale.
By "platforming marketing" this way, you can orchestrate a powerful, decentralized internal market that moves at incredible speed, leverages the diverse skills and imagination of contributors across the company, and adapts to changes and opportunities faster than top-down, centralized decision-making ever could. It takes the concept of a center of excellence and opens it up into a massively-parallel engine of marketing innovation. Scott's opening keynote will show you how this platform model is within your reach and can turn the continuous change and disruption of digital business to your advantage.

Keynote
"Agile" has become a trendy prefix for nearly all business activities--including "Agile marketing." As different functions within an organization explore their own version of "Agile," we find ourselves with a critical choice to make: Is Agile a movement that unites us across functional silos--or is it a way to describe operational changes we make within those silos? In other words, will Agile be something that brings us closer together--or something that drives us farther apart?
If marketing is to get a seat at the table for cross-functional, customer-first work, the question we must ask is not "How do we make Agile a part of marketing?", but rather, "How do we make marketing a part of Agile?" In this talk, Agile for Everybody author Matt LeMay explains why "Agile marketing" is most effective when it starts with an organization-wide vision of Agile principles and values, and how simple and lightweight changes to the way we work can put those principles into practice.
If you are interested in implementing, or evolving Agile in your organization, attend this session for these major takeaways:

It's a common lament among B2B marketers: you work to generate more traffic and more leads, only to hear months later that the leads you're generating aren't the RIGHT leads. Closing the loop between lead volume and lead quality can be a headache for everyone involved. But it can be done.
In this session, we'll talk about ways to programmatically get lead-quality data into your regular analytics and reporting flow, including:
- Custom GTM scripts to add lead scoring data directly to Google Analytics
- Linking CRM and analytics data in Google Data Studio
- Data-driven education strategies to help guide conversations about brand awareness, lead volume, and lead quality
- Incorporating full-funnel and LTV information into your conversion reporting

For the last several years, pundits have predicted that THIS would be the year mass personalization takes off. Industry giants like Facebook and Amazon have been held up as shining examples of how to personalize at scale. But is this level of personalization really needed for all companies on all channels?
In this session we'll share the results of a new Forbes personalization survey with industry benchmarks collected from marketing leaders from global 2000 companies to help better define what's working, what's not, and how a Customer Data Platform can be used to maximize personalization results on the right channels that matter for your business.
Marketers will learn:
1. What personalization consumers expect and want from companies and which channels actually matter to customers and prospects and where to get the best ROI for your marketing dollars
2. Strategies for segmenting your customers/prospects by using the data you already have to compete with the data goliaths like Amazon, Netflix and more.
3. How a Customer Data Platform can help enable marketers to be more data driven.

Keynote
"Disrupt or Die" has been the rallying cry for decades, but what does it actually mean to be disruptive, to make it the center of your strategy?
Many companies set a goal to develop "disruptive" innovations, believing innovation will disrupt their market and drive growth. But that's not how it works: disruption doesn't create growth. Growth creates disruption. Transformations are never easy, and the unrelenting pace of technological change makes it doubly difficult.
But there's hope and a way forward — starting with reframing your strategy, leadership and culture so that disruptive growth is at the top of your agenda.
In Charlene's keynote you'll learn how to:
- Define what disruption is — and isn't — and how it can drive growth.
- Identify and prioritize the right disruptive growth moves — and align the organization around them.
- Understand how leaders must show up differently when pursuing a disruption strategy.
- Instill disruption into a status-quo culture.
Register now and receive a free copy of Charlene's new book, "The Disruption Mindset: Why Some Organizations Transform While Others Fail," at the conference. (First come, first served!)
The MarTech Conference is programmed by conference chair Scott Brinker, who has been chronicling the rise of marketing technology and its impact on marketing strategy, management, and culture on his blog, chiefmartec.com, since 2008. He is the creator of the annual marketing technology landscape supergraphic, the industry reference for the evolving vendor categories of the field, and the author of the book Hacking Marketing, a guide to marketing management in a software-driven world.

The CCPA has started an avalanche of new state privacy laws and amendments around the country. From New York to Nevada, these regulations aim to put the control of personal data back with the people, but leave privacy and marketing teams with even more questions. Just how alike are the CCPA's "Do Not Sell" and Nevada Privacy Law's "Opt Out of Sale" requirements? How do you understand what data you sell and where that data exists? How can you create customer experiences that deliver on user experience expectations that also integrate with backend systems to automate the process? This session will answer these questions, compare the two laws, share a "Do Not Sell"/"Opt Out of Sale" roadmap and action plan and detail how to create a scalable and sustainable approach to consumer rights to comply with a variety of state and global privacy laws.
