Ask questions about who the target audience is and what they want them to think, feel, do, or say as a result of a campaign. - Understand the touch points and stages of a sale, and where the prospect or client is within the lifecycle, including planning and anticipating when offers needs to be developed and delivered, and what form they should take. - Educate internal clients on the role of marketing, including the processes and required inputs to produce effective campaigns, and work with them to plan for periods of high demand. **Be Doane Grant Thornton** If you’re a bit like us, you’re driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking.
