Source One’s Marketing Infrastructure and Network Diagram solution helps organizations navigate
agency ecosystems and drive brand value.
Willow Grove, PA, November 13, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The spend management experts at Source One, a
Corcentric company, are proud to unveil their Marketing Infrastructure and Diagram solution (MIND).
This new component of their service offering addresses many of marketing's most common concerns and
challenges. While budgets are generally a moving target for the department, MIND provides a new level
of visibility to ensure that long-term goals and strategic plans don't have to be.
Source One developed MIND to supplement a standard spend analysis process with a marketing-specific
solution to account for the category's unique nuances. The process allows Source One's Marketing
Sourcing Consultants to conduct an in-depth analysis of the Marketing landscape to provide clients with
greater visibility, and ultimately drive efficiencies across their agency services, brands, and tactics.
Historically, many organizations have established a dichotomy between Marketing and Procurement. The
situation has prevented the two units from working together to effectively manage advertising and
marketing spend. Throughout their decades of client engagements, the Marketing Sourcing consultants at
Source One have worked to bridge this gap. They recognize the importance of collaborating directly with
Marketing Stakeholders to ensure the organization is positioned to carry out successful strategic
initiatives across the category. By demonstrating a complete understanding of Marketing's investment
goals and outlining each agencies role in the department's overarching strategy, Source One's MIND
agency assessment solution strengthens the alliance between Marketing and Procurement.
“We believe in approaching Marketing as an investment, rather than a cost center,” says Megan Connell,
a Senior Marketing Consultant at Source One. “We strive to increase agency value through supplier
relationship management and budget optimization efforts that maximize Marketing's ROI. Our clients
have been very satisfied with MIND's customizable approach, and the roadmap it creates for addressing
both low and high-complexity initiatives.”
Source One continues to attract interest in its Marketing Infrastructure and Network Diagram solution
from organizations in need of additional support developing future-state strategies and allocating budgets.
By aligning Procurement and Marketing's goals, working to understand Marketing's objectives, and
supporting execution, Source One has once again demonstrated why it is a trusted advisor in the
Procurement and Strategic Sourcing space. Their team looks forward to networking with other
forward-thinking specialists at ProcureCon Marketing next week.
