On Friday 11th May 0800 PDT / 1100 EDT / 1600 BST, IIAR member Gerry Van Zandt (LinkedIn, @gerryvz) from the Oracle Analyst Relations team will host an interactive discussion about how AR can better measure results, and more importantly how AR can better utilize these results.
AR managers and leaders tend to be highly focused on maximizing their firm’s placement in key analyst competitive evaluations, and improving what analysts are saying about their firm to their end-user clients.
However, the process doesn’t stop there! Often, AR misses the more important aspect: How can we as AR practitioners and leaders get our hard-earned results into the hands of the right people? The sales and marketing teams; customer prospects; and existing customers? How can we leverage and multiply the benefit of key analyst research to support the teams out there winning sales deals?
During this call, Gerry will lead the discussion about the following topics:
- The two parts to effective AR: effectively measuring it, and effectively leveraging it
- Being clear about your goals for AR measurement and amplification
- Important AR measurement elements that you should consider
- Strategies for multiplying effectiveness of and amplifying your AR results
Speaker background
