Episode 11: Marketing Operations perceptions | Rapidly scaling MOps | How to do Attribution | Tech Layoffs What's MOps got to do with it?

Welcome to episode 11 of What's MOps Got To Do With It? Karla and Simon discuss the importance of Marketing Operations avoiding the perception of being “back office” or even the “IT of Marketing”, following a post on Martech by Darrell Alfonso.

Getting us started in the marketing leader chair this time is Steffen Hedebrandt (@SHedebrandt), Chief Marketing Officer & Co-Founder at marketing attribution solution provider Dreamdata. Steffan shared his serendipitous start-up story, thoughts on B2B attribution including how understanding the return on the last chunk of spend is more important than the first and the role MOps has to play in measuring marketing success.

Then in the Marketing Operations leader slot we have Helene Hornecker, Head Of Marketing Operations at developer security platform Snyk. Helene explained how she scaled MOps in a business growing so fast it’s “a new company every quarter”, the benefits of sitting in a central services organisation and how to prioritise which meetings to attend!

And as ever we chat with our favourite Stateside Marketing Operations guru Courtney McAra, principal at Mustang MarTech, as we grab a virtual #CoffeeWithCourtney. Courtney is off on summer camp again next month and brought up the alarming number of layoffs that seem to be happening right now, as reported by Layoffs.fyi.
