Latest solution brings sixth integrated pillar into the software vendor's digital marketing management platform
Adobe has added a sixth integrated pillar to its Marketing Cloud portfolio aimed at cross-channel campaign management.
The campaign technology capabilities are the result of the company’s acquisition of campaign management software vendor, Neolane , for US$600 million in June, and will sit alongside Adobe’s analytics, targeting, social media management, asset and content manager, and online media optimisation solutions.
All six solutions are available as cloud-based services and are based on open architecture. According to Adobe Australia and New Zealand managing director, Paul Robson, the expanded digital marketing toolkit will empower marketers to develop integrated customer profiles and deliver relevant offers and messages in real-time.
“Adobe Campaign brings critical cross-channel campaign management capabilities to the industry’s most robust marketing solution, and provides top brands with the complete digital marketing solution they have been looking for to deliver the most outstanding customer experiences,” he said.
Earlier this week, Adobe also announced major updates to its digital targeting and testing solution, Adobe Target, aimed at simplifying the user experience. The changes include a redesigned and touch-based interface, plus a new step-by-step workflow framework to guide users through testing digital offers and personalising Web content for specific audiences.

Flash back to the classic film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Television-obsessed Mike insists on becoming the first person to be ‘sent by Wonkavision’, dematerialising on one end, pixel by pixel, and materialising in another space. His cinematic dreams are realised thanks to rash decisions as he is shrunken down to fit the digital universe, followed by a trip to the taffy puller to return to normal size.
Why is it there is no shortage of leadership development materials, yet outstanding leadership is so rare? Despite having access to so many leadership principles, tools, systems and processes, why is it so hard to develop and improve as a leader?
As a nation united by sport, brands are beginning to learn money alone won’t talk without aligned values and action. If recent events with major leagues and their players have shown us anything, it’s the next generation of athletes are standing by what they believe in – and they won’t let their values be superseded by money.
