WILTON, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SiriusDecisions, the leading global business-to-business (b-to-b) research and advisory firm, has announced the winners of its annual Return on Integration (ROI) Awards series. Each ROI winner will detail its successful initiatives and outcomes in keynote presentations at the 13th annual SiriusDecisions Summit, to be held May 8-10 at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
The Return on Integration (ROI) Award honorees were recognized for their outstanding achievements in sales, marketing and product alignment, based on the successful implementation of SiriusDecisions’ research, frameworks and best practices to improve company performance and growth.
Recipients were selected based on the following criteria:
- Unique integration of sales, marketing and product
- Tightly aligned sales, marketing, product and/or customer experience goals
- Advanced use of infrastructure to support shared/interlocked processes
- Measurement of alignment results
- Application of SiriusDecisions models and methods as a part of an alignment initiative
“Too often, sales and marketing integration is seen as an operational afterthought rather than an investment to drive long-term growth,” said Tony Jaros, President and Chief Product Officer of SiriusDecisions. “In today’s highly competitive market, companies with integrated marketing, sales and product capabilities have a distinct competitive advantage. This year’s ROI Awards winners seized opportunities to unify goals across departments and build programs that consistently achieve those shared objectives through unique implementations of SiriusDecisions’ models and methods. We look forward to further highlighting the winners’ success at this year’s SiriusDecisions Summit.”
