Main Complexity/Critical issues in the Job
• Alignment between teams. Because of the potential for complexity and change, = CDP need to be aligned across departments, and even across the company. Marketing is often the epicenter of a CDP initiative, but their job overlaps with many other departments. And because these teams are often using a CDP to more effectively manage inbound, outbound, and ABM efforts, there are significant impacts to Sales and Sales Ops. If these two teams in particular are not aligned, it will be a steep road.
• Integration into existing processes/workflows, business processes. Perhaps a latent challenge in some of those already mentioned. Most B2B go- to- market teams manage a complex set of technologies, processes, and workflows. Many of these have been adjusted and tweaked over time to the point where small changes can become large endeavors. When it comes to implementing a CDP with new, different data, there are tactical challenges in making sure scoring, routing, lead management, territories, etc. all continue to work correctly and don’t break. Like any big project, there are often some unforeseen challenges that will require additional work and problem solving.
