Matt CalnanNo marketer wants to air their dirty data laundry, but there’s freedom in putting it out there to do something about. In this episode of Inspired Marketing, Matt Calnan throws down the gauntlet on the all-too-familiar issue of “bad data in, bad data out.” His team was up against multiple instances of Oracle Eloqua and other disparate, disconnected data sources but chose to shine a flashlight on the “data darkness” to illuminate gaps in process that required fixing. Tune in to hear this Data Manager’s impressive story highlighting how his team’s data inventory ultimately led Medtronic to a set of solid, actionable dashboards and unified data.
