Digital Marketing Calendar
Digital marketing calendar for cross-channel visibility
Challenge: How do you keep your digital marketing efforts coordinated across a wide range of digital channels?
Solution: One shared digital marketing calendar that automatically combines upcoming individual channel plans into a single source of truth.
Modern marketing teams let channel owners manage work their own way. But with content being published by different teams and new channels popping up all the time, marketing efforts become fragmented—and impact is lost. With no unified place to check what other channels are up to, marketing teams can easily miss big opportunities for cross-channel collaboration.
The Challenge with Building & Maintaining a Digital Marketing Calendar
Keeping your brand relevant requires an omni-channel approach to marketing with multiple channel-specific teams contributing to your brand narrative across an array of digital channels. Channels teams such as email, web, social, editorial, require their own space to plan, manage, and execute their channel-specific digital marketing plans.
Email teams manage their own email marketing calendar, web teams run their own web content calendar, editorial teams run their own editorial content calendar, and so on.
Marketing channel calendars get built at the cost of visibility. When you need a single view of all your digital marketing efforts, it’s next to impossible to pull all the content together for a cohesive view.
Digital marketing calendars that manually roll-up content across all channels doesn’t work either as it’s the teams that incur the overhead of updating another calendar and they inevitably stop updating your spreadsheet. Back to square one.
