All that was possible due to a team driven by passion for marketing and the urge of constant improvement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But the most important thing is that <strong>Marketing 4 IT<\/strong> gathered marketers and HR specialists from the local IT sector and brought valuable speakers, in order to share knowledge about the current challenges in Marketing and HR and the future trends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Let&#8217;s take a look at the main subjects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Big data isn&#8217;t news anymore, but <strong>Tudor Galos<\/strong> from Microsoft gave us really useful insights and suggested several tools to use when planning any marketing action. That&#8217;s how he introduced us to the new marketer, the geek marketer, who is, in fact, the growth hacker. Tudor also said that the greatest benefit of IT companies, of which they should take advantage, is the product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">LinkedIn is one of the most suitable mediums for B2B communication. <strong>Nicoleta Benga<\/strong> clarified how to do content marketing and explained that, for IT products, the sale process in actually an education process. We have to make our future customers understand how the product can help them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Marketing is exploding, as <strong>Ioana Sigarteu<\/strong> from Samsung said. There&#8217;s no constant in marketing except the constant change. We have to adapt and react, that&#8217;s what agile marketing means.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Raluca Anghel<\/strong> asked us and we&#8217;re asking you now: when is the last time you revised and improved your company&#8217;s story?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Until you answer the question, we want to share Raluca&#8217;s basic principles of storytelling: clarity, coherence, emotional connection and, the gold rule, simplicity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">You don&#8217;t need to have jaw-dropping budgets to deliver value to your customers, and <strong>Alin Vlad<\/strong> from Heimdal is all about inbound marketing on a budget. You don&#8217;t have to buy the attention, you can earn it. And the best way to do so is by constantly delivering valuable content to educate your audience, being passionate and generous and meeting your customers&#8217; needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Victor Gavronschi<\/strong>, Loopaa&#8217;s CEO, discussed 2 current (and pressing) matters for the IT industry: the issues of the outsourcing model and the ways of building a strong employer brand, through communication and a good relationship between the Marketing and HR department.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">That&#8217;s all for now folks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Great thanks to all the attendees at Marketing 4 IT and the speakers for sharing their knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Also, we want to give special thanks to our <strong>sponsors<\/strong>:\u00a0 <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beletage.ro\/\">Beletage<\/a><\/span>, Vin-de-vie, AV Media and <strong>media partners<\/strong>: BunaDimineata.ro, Satu Mare Online, Vocea Transilvaniei, Monitorul de Cluj, Doru\u0218upeal\u0103.ro, IAA Young Profesionals Cluj, Libero Events, BogdanAnghelina.ro, Ciulea.ro, groparu.ro, JCI Cluj \u0219i Valentin Vesa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hope you enjoyed the event if you were there.
