need to define the positive
impact they want to have
on the world.”
"We know from our history
that while promotions may
win quarters, innovation
wins decades."
“Let there be a future
where we can be free of
brand connections as
well and let [brands]
have wisdom to know
when not to be
present.”
“Be so entertaining
[with your ads] that
people would actually
pay to engage.”

- 11. Managing Director, CMO Program
Deloitte
“Most people want a company to provide value to them and don’t
want to feel ‘marketed’ to in the process. The feeling of being
marketed to, which is all too prevalent in 1:1 marketing today,
gives a feeling of inauthenticity, which gives the feeling that the
company doesn’t have the customer’s best interest.”
- 12. Founder and CEO,
United Worldwide LLC
“Today, it's not just about customer-centric marketing, but also
customer-centric products. If good enough, the product is a
marketing channel in itself. Take Tesla, for example. A brand that
spends no marketing dollars and yet performs well and has a super
engaged fan base because their mission to create the greatest car ever is
so inherent to everything they do (no dealerships, constant innovation). ”
- 13. Satisfied customers
were three times
more likely to say the
company often or
always puts their needs
before its business
goals than unsatisfied
customers.
- 14. “Marketers may be best served by thinking about their audience not as customers, but as
members, like we do as a nonprofit and professional association. It’s a small but impactful
perspective change.
We have to convince an individual to repeatedly buy into our organization’s core mission, which
means our very existence depends on delivering meaningful value in every interaction. Our
members and, by extension, a for-profit company’s paying customers become the lifeblood of all
marketing efforts, so it only makes sense to consider how a marketer is serving their interests —
and solving their problems — before planning any marketing or product initiative. Those insights
can only be gained from frequent conversations and a deep understanding of what customers
need, want and will want in the future.”
Managing Director, Services Delivery
and CMO, CFA Institute
- 15. “Just as customers engage brands in many channels, customer-first brands engage
their customers holistically across all channels with personalized
experiences. The other brands are sheep being slaughtered by their customers.
The cost-first mentality creates the endless downward spiral toward a
customer-last strategy. The best creative in the world can’t fix broken customer
relationships.”

- 16. Q. Of the companies you interact with, how many put your needs before
their own interests in their marketing?
• 92% of customers
have experienced
customer-first
marketing from at
least a few
companies
• 77% of American
consumers think
that many
companies do not
practice-
customer-first
marketing
- 17. “Marketing can play a huge role, but in today’s siloed world, it’s nearly impossible for the average
CMO to get it done. For instance, in many organizations the CMO is responsible for customer
acquisition, or maybe even just delivering leads to a website or retail location, and someone else,
such as product marketing, is responsible for consummating sales. Customer service or post-sales
support often resides in a third organization. Everyone has different goals and different
compensation structures, and they all follow the money. For instance, if you’re a product
marketer in many B2B companies, your ‘customer’ is actually a sales person, and not the end
user. You can do fantastic things that accrue long-term benefits to your end users, but if your
tactics do not help your sales team hit this quarter’s conversion goal, you’ll be gone in short
order.”
