Eloqua 101 & Strategy

Onboard new users faster and use end-user
training combined with a marketing automation strategy.

Workshop Overview

This two-day workshop is designed to transform marketing users into Modern Marketers. It will focus on the Eloqua platform and the strategy associated with its rich functionality.

Each workshop is tailored to the audience and can be adjusted to ensure the best possible outcome for all attendees.

The workshop can be facilitated in two ways:

Option 1:     Day 1 – Modern Marketing Strategy

                     Day 2 – Eloqua End User Training

This option is suitable if you have a larger marketing team with clear lines of responsibility between groups. For example, one group builds campaigns within Eloqua, and the other develops the campaign strategy and copy.

Option 2:    2 Days – A blended approach

This option delivers Modern Marketing Strategy and Eloqua End User training in a combined format. For example, we review campaign effectiveness and apply what we learn during the end-user session.

Marketing v’s Marketing Automation

Email marketing is the constant repetition of sending emails to your contacts. There’s no evaluation of behaviour and little insight beyond open rates, click through and form completion.

Marketing Automation is the ability to engage with prospects and customers on their own terms through trigger-based marketing campaigns. People progress through the top of the funnel based on their engagement and digital behaviour.

Workshop Module Breakdown

Each workshop is tailored to your needs. The following is an outline of a typical workshop.

The morning session begins with an overview of Eloqua and an introduction to Modern Marketing. Your users will log in to the platform and discover the various aspects of Eloqua.

We introduce participants to problem-based marketing and help them understand the benefits of moving their thinking from “email marketing” to “marketing automation”.

The afternoon is spent exploring two critical functional areas of Eloqua: 1. Email and 2 Multi-Step Campaigns. Users will build emails, learn about the time-saving aspects of templates, send test emails, and create click-through reports.

We then discuss better campaign design, examine the best practice approach to delivering emails and reminders, and reviewing who opens and clicks through on emails.

Day 2 starts with a review of day 1, and we explore what’s coming up today. The morning session dives into contact management, segmentation, offers and creating engaging content.

We’ll explore personalisation, understanding Digital Body Language, and how this can be used to deliver trigger-based campaigns.

The afternoon session explores more content marketing and helps users understand how to maximise current content. We then explore and publish forms to landing pages, understanding a best practice approach to forms and how to minimise form abandonment.

The final part of the day brings the various components together on the Campaign Canvas. Participants will learn how to launch their campaign and explore Eloqua INSIGHT and reporting.

Lead Nurturing 101

Engage with people on their own terms.

Workshop Overview

The concept of nurturing is both a pre-sale and post-sale strategy. From a pre-sales point of view, Eloqua enables you to personalise each engagement for prospects and deliver an improved Customer Experience.

Lead Scoring 101

Deliver the right leads to sales at the right time.

Workshop Overview

As more companies understand the need for a clear Customer Experience (CX) strategy, lead scoring is one way to gain the insight needed to manage prospect and customer engagement better.

Lead Scoring empowers the Marketing team to nurture prospects with personalised campaigns and then deliver marketing-qualified leads to the sales team.

This means the sales team can focus on the right prospects at the right time and avoid endless phone calls from extensive lists of people who are no more than names, i.e. they have no relationship with Marketing Cube.

This workshop walks your team through a defined process to build a basic Eloqua lead scoring model.

Workshop Module Breakdown

  • Sales and marketing alignment
  • Your ideal client profile (ICP)
  • Segmentation
  • Fit/Profile v’s engagement
  • Criteria & weightings
  • No lead left behind
  • Reports & dashboards

Why Score Leads?

One of the biggest challenges in most organisations is defining what constitutes a “Lead” and understanding when it should be passed from Marketing to Sales.

Once you have a Lead Scoring model in place, sales and marketing can begin to understand and gain insight from the contacts presented as an “A1” lead. Through refinement and feedback Lead Scoring can become one of your organisations most powerful business processes.

Marketing Automation Consulting

Delivering expert advice to build on your success.

Consulting Services

It’s easy to become insular in our campaign execution and potentially repeat the same type of communication repeatedly.

You probably have an annual or quarterly marketing plan in place. As you break that plan into campaigns, we can look at how Eloqua can help you better execute and engage with prospects and customers.

Our Customer Success team can provide insight into Eloqua functionality to help you realise greater returns on your investment.

Our team can sit with your marketing team, review the current marketing plan and help you exploit Eloqua’s rich functionality.

Like many customers, you probably hit the ground running following the implementation of Eloqua. Have you taken the time to review the performance of your campaigns beyond the usual metrics of opens, click-throughs, landing page visits, and form completion/abandonment?

If not, it’s time.

How can we help?

Our Customer Success team can support you in a variety of ways.

From as little as a half-day engagement to a larger project or even buying blocks of time to draw from as needed, our Customer Success team can engage with you in a way that suits your team and your budget.

Let’s start with a Roadmap

Developing a Marketing Automation roadmap in concert with your marketing plan is a great starting point for new Eloqua users or those who may be more seasoned in their platform use.

The roadmap helps align your team to what’s ahead and how Eloqua can be exploited further better to realise your organisation’s goals around customer experience and overall growth.

Specific campaign support

From time to time, you may need support from Marketing Cube like you would from an external agency. 

Our Eloqua Technical Team can support your organisation in several ways.

You may need support with integration requirements, more complex campaign builds, or assistance with reporting.
