Overall Satisfaction with PathFactory

PathFactory is being used primarily by our Demand Generation and Marketing Operations teams in the Marketing department. As part of Creative Services, I am in it as well uploading and managing content where needed. It addresses the problem of not having insight into content performance as well as providing another way for consumers to binge multiple pieces of content in a pattern that we develop.

Pros

  • Tagging capabilities for content are robust.
  • Customizable forms to allow for a unique experience.
  • Insights and metrics to see where programs can be improved.

Cons

  • When content is updated, its thumbnail isn't automatically updated with it so you need to manually upload a new thumbnail.
  • A brand inconsistency tool would be helpful, to note which areas of the tool you haven't yet customized to your own brand.
  • We're still new enough in the system that it's hard to account for ROI at this point.
PathFactory is well suited for short-form, snackable content, but not for longer, flagship pieces. If you lead a PathFactory track with a flagship piece, often consumers won't even get to the next piece of content, and certainly not any below it.
