Brandi Starr

#TegTalks with a Strategist hosted by Jason Semenek and Brandi Starr are conversations and insights for digital marketing leaders, by digital marketing leaders. During these 10- to 20-minute conversations, we discuss (and sometimes debate) the key challenges digital marketers face today.

Choosing a Marketing Automation Platform (MAP) goes beyond the basic functionality of the tool. You wouldn’t choose a car because it has a steering wheel, four tires and an engine; you also shouldn’t choose a MAP because it can send emails and store your contact data. The MAP you choose is one of the most important tools in your martech stack and in conjunction with your other systems, it needs to be flexible to enable your marketing strategy both today and in the future. In this episode of TegTalks with a Strategist, Mike Geller, President and CTO of Tegrita, tackles the importance of a flexible and expandable data model, the ability to have a fully integrated martech stack, price vs. value and more.
