An essential part of any marketing strategy is curating the tools that go into your Marketing Technology (Martech) stack and determining how to configure your data and analytics to inform your campaigns. Setting these elements early can help maximize performance, efficacy, and spending.
Developing Your Martech Stack
Martech is a broad term for any technology leveraged for marketing efforts.

Although a premium, paid tool may offer some robust functionality, sometimes a free tool may be sufficient for your needs. Working with an agency can help you decide which tools to utilize and might give you free or discounted access to these tools. This is the case with BTV and some of the Martech platforms we deploy for our partners’ success.
Analytics & Reporting

The benefit of this setup work is customized data streams and curated reporting that meet your exact needs.

We’re here to create the perfect dashboard, bringing all your data together in one coherent space.
