## Organized Marketers Are 674% More Likely To Report Success

Survey results found organized marketers are 674% more likely to report success than their peers.

Compared to the data from 2018, the correlation between organization & success in marketers jumped from being almost 4 times more likely to almost 7 times more likely in 2022.

This increase isn’t surprising as we look at the way the global pandemic has impacted marketing over the last few years.

Is your marketing successful?

![Bar chart showing results to the question asking marketers if their marketing is successful.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F1-organized-marketers.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 1: When asked if their marketing is successful, 56% of surveyed marketers said somewhat successful, 23% said neutral, 11% said very successful, 7% said somewhat unsuccessful, and 4% said very unsuccessful.

### Ready To Get More Organized As A Marketer?

## Top Marketers Document Their Strategy - A 100% Increase From 2019

The correlation between successful marketers and marketers that document their strategy has strengthened significantly since 2018. Yet almost 40% of marketers report they have no documented strategy.

A documented marketing strategy keeps everyone on the same page. It creates a universal record of what you’ve done, what you’re working on, and what is up next.

This is even more important when you have remote team members collaborating together & various stakeholders interested in what the marketing team is doing.

If you’re among the 40% of marketers that do not document their strategy (or you’re looking for a better way to do it), getting started doesn’t have to be overly complicated.

Do you have a documented strategy that drives all of your marketing efforts?

![Bar chart showing results to the question asking marketers if they documented their marketing strategy.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F2-document-strategy.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 2: When asked if they have a documented strategy that drives all of their marketing efforts, 47% of surveyed marketers said portions of their strategy are documented, 22% said they don’t currently document but plan to document their strategy in 2022, 17% said they document their entire strategy, and 14% said they have no documented strategy.

### Time To Document Your Marketing Strategy

Start by documenting what you already know. Audit what is already in flight or planned for the foreseeable future, including:

- In progress projects
- Active marketing campaigns
- Upcoming events
- Upcoming projects & campaigns
- Project or campaign requests
- Related tasks, resources, & processes to accomplish you & your team’s work

Having your marketing strategy documented is critical to success. Things inevitably come up – employee illnesses, time off, vacations, quarantines. Documenting your strategy allows your team to stay productive, easily share progress updates, & adapt as plans change.

## Proactive Planners Are 3x More Likely To Report Success

Marketers that reported they proactively plan their marketing are 331% more successful than their peers. However, there are still 15% that cited that they rarely or never plan their projects ahead of time.

The pandemic has resulted in a less predictable marketing roadmap for many teams, yet survey results show that proactive planning is still crucial for success.

Do you proactively plan marketing campaigns ahead of time?

![Bar chart showing results to the question asking marketers if they proactively plan marketing campaigns.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F3-proactively-plan.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 3: When asked if they proactively plan marketing campaigns ahead of time, 46% of surveyed marketers said usually, 28% said sometimes, 17% said always, 7% said rarely, and 3% said never.

### Plan Your Work Then Work Your Plan

Do you have a backlog of marketing ideas? Are you planning ahead for upcoming events or busy seasons?

Now is the perfect time to start looking ahead to plan tasks, campaigns, and projects in advance.

When you plan ahead, you can make sure your entire team has enough work, enough time, and enough flexibility to successfully execute project requests & campaigns.

## Social Media, Email, & Blog Posts Among Top-Performing Content

Our survey found the highest performing content types include social media ads, emails, and blog posts.

- 20% of marketers reported that social media ads performed the best compared to all the content types their company publishes.
- 17% noted that email marketing was their top-performing content type.

## Agile Marketers 469% More Likely To Report Success Than Peers

Compared to 2019, top marketers are two times more likely to report success when using agile processes like scrum or kanban.

This isn’t surprising. Agile processes are designed to help marketing teams handle the pace of digital marketing, respond to new opportunities, and stay aligned with business objectives.

According to the State of Agile Marketing Report presented by Agile Sherpas, 84% of those surveyed already using agile found it important or very important in handling the volatility of 2020.

When you can easily adjust your strategy, the easier it is to handle unexpected changes to timelines, priorities, or resources. Beyond making your team more successful, agile processes make it less stressful to shift responsibilities & adjust as needed.

Do you implement agile marketing processes?

![Bar chart showing results to the question asking marketers if they implement agile marketing processes.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F5-agile.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 5: When asked if they implement agile marketing processes, 34% of surveyed marketers said usually, 32% said sometimes, 13% said always, 11% said rarely, and 11% said never.

If you haven’t adopted any agile processes, it’s simple to start integrating them into your workflows. Not sure where to start? Checkout these key resources to start adopting agile marketing.

## Goal Setters 377% More Successful Than Peers

Without defining what success looks like, it’s impossible to measure success. If you aren’t setting goals, it’s time to start.

Of the marketers surveyed, 70% reported setting marketing goals for their marketing initiatives, projects, & campaigns; almost 47% of marketers who set goals noted achieving success most of the time or always.

Do you set marketing goals?

![Pie chart showing results to the question asking marketers if they set marketing goals.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F6-marketing-goals.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 6: When asked if they set marketing goals, 74% of surveyed marketers said yes and 26% said sometimes. When asked if they were successful in achieving their marketing goals, 49% of surveyed marketers said most of the time, 39% said sometimes, 8% said rarely, 3% said never, and 1% said always.

A study by psychology Professor Dr. Gail Matthews at the Dominican University of California confirms the importance of setting goals: The results of her study showed that 76% of participants who wrote down their goals & provided weekly progress updates successfully achieved their goals – over 33% higher than their peers.

Time and time again, the data has shown that people who deliberately set goals have much higher success rates. Yet 30% of marketers surveyed do not set specific goals.

Luckily this is easy to fix. All you need to do is identify goals & start building your strategy around those objectives. We’ve included resources above to help set your goals.

## Project Management Software Users 426% More Likely To Report Success

Our data found that Marketers who use project management tools in their tech stack are more successful than marketers that don’t.

But according to the survey results, 62% of marketers surveyed do not use any kind of project management software to manage their marketing.

What kind of tools do marketing teams use?

![Bar chart showing results to the question asking marketers what tools they use.](/_next/image?url=%2Fimg%2Fmarketing-statistics%2Fexpanded-key-findings%2F7-project-management.png&w=2048&q=75)Figure 7: When asked what kind of tools their team uses, 72% of surveyed marketers said email service provider, 63% said analytics platform, 62% said graphic creation tools, 51% said social media platforms, 43% said CRM, 36% said social media scheduling tool, 34% said SEO software/ platform, 30% said project management software, 23% said marketing automation platform, 23% said task management software, 20% said landing page software, 18% said marketing management platform, and 10% said digital asset management platform.

### What Is project Management Software?

[According to G2Crowd](https://www.g2.com/categories/project-management "Go to G2Crowd article"), project management software assists teams with managing team goals and long-term projects, as well as coordinating individual tasks.

Despite project management tools being readily available for marketers, there are still many who do not have the right tools in place to achieve success.

With more teams working remotely, adopting a project management software has never been more valuable.

With a project management software, you can stay connected with your team, see exactly where projects and tasks are, and achieve full visibility into your marketing strategy.
