#782: Saleforce Marketing Cloud CMO Bobby Jania on the end of "Do No Reply" marketing
What if the most damaging phrase in your marketing isn't a four-letter word, but three simple ones: "Do Not Reply"?
Agility requires more than just moving fast; it requires breaking down the walls between departments to respond to customer needs in the moment they happen. It’s about empowering every part of the organization to act as one cohesive brand, turning every interaction into a meaningful conversation.
Today, we're going to talk about the end of an era: of one-way, impersonal, "do not reply" marketing. We’ll explore the shift from siloed campaigns to unified, real-time conversations, and what it takes to empower every single employee, from sales to service, to be an extension of the marketing team to build trust and drive growth.
To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Bobby Jania, CMO Marketing Cloud at Salesforce.
