Agile is not just for software developers.
It is a mindset that you can, and should, apply to marketing activation too. It comes down to Start Small, Think Big: Take a complex problem, break it down into small pieces and try to deliver as fast as you can. Once you deliver, learn and adapt quickly to maximize your success (and minimize any negatives)
Starting small means low upfront costs and effort for new initiatives. You can also save money and time over the longer term as you’ll invest in what you know you need to activate your customers and what you will use, rather than features you might not get around to exploring.
It’s very important to be able to truly deliver quickly with the support of your team, your leadership, and your technology partner. Success comes from responding to change and iterating rather than sticking to a hard-and-fast plan. Agility is a way to keep innovating – maintaining or building an advantage over your competitors because you learn faster.
