Good morning, Marketers, and have we reached normal yet?

Early on in the pandemic, marketers (and everybody else) realized how true it was that change is constant. 

Of course, this constant change has always been a reality in the evolving landscape of marketing technology. Kim Davis offered a long view on some of that change, which shows no sign of letting up.

And that’s what makes our annual MarTech Replacement Survey so important every year. What change has proven to be most valuable for marketers? That gets to the heart of the survey and of the news and insights we cover each day. We all can be agents of change, and innovative marketers are the agents of change in marketing technology.
