Automation can fix problems. That belief is a persistent and expensive myth in today’s organizations. Automation only accelerates what already exists. And if you have a bad foundation, anything built on it can’t be stable, regardless of how much technology you try to inject into it. Because automation doesn’t improve marketing maturity, it exposes it. […]

The IAB Tech Lab has introduced the Event and Conversion API (ECAPI) to standardize how advertisers communicate key marketing events and conversions to platforms and partners. It’s open for public comment through February 20, 2026. The goal? Less friction, more clarity. “Advertisers and platforms are already doing this in parallel,” said Anthony Katsur, CEO of

AI is doing wonders for B2B marketing by cutting costs and improving productivity. But, as has been the case for the past 56 years, these gains aren’t reflected in people’s paychecks. According to the “2025 B2B Tech Marketing Salary & AI Career Impact Survey” from Metadata.io and VPMarketing.com, 90% of tech marketers are using AI

While researching my upcoming book, Hyperadaptive: Rewiring the Organization to Become an AI-Native Enterprise, I tested countless tools. I want to talk about the one nobody is discussing.

Early in my career, the technology contracts I signed were fairly straightforward. I knew what I was paying for, how many seats I had and what was included. Even as data volumes grew and systems became more complex, costs were still mostly understandable. You could estimate what it took to store, move and process data.

In MarTech’s “MarTechBot explains it all” feature, we pose a question about marketing to our very own MarTechBot, which is trained on the MarTech website archives and has access to the broader internet. Today’s question: How can B2B marketers build long-term buyer momentum by connecting mental availability to buying triggers instead of relying on short-term

Measuring your marketing and sales success by defining, measuring and optimizing the stages an account progresses through will make the attribution conversation obsolete.  Yeah, I said it. Teams obsessively track impressions, clicks, website visits, form fills, event registrations, content downloads and MQLs to try and scientifically associate that behavior with what prompted a customer to

Five days compressed into five minutes. Six weeks into six days. These aren’t marginal improvements. They’re what happens when marketing organizations remove the structural barriers that prevent talented people from acting at the speed of customer behavior. As Peter Drucker, the father of modern management, warned in “Managing in Turbulent Times,” “The greatest danger in

Marketing — particularly martech — often behaves like the fashion industry. Every year, sometimes every season, a design from a significant fashion label emerges that fast-fashion brands rush to copy. Before long, everyone is wearing the same look, which is often the first sign it’s already time to move on. Marketing is no different. The
