    • A Marketing Information System (MkIS) is a system that gathers data related to business trends and consumer behavior to generate reports for decision-making.

    • MkIS can turn internal company data into valuable insights, such as inputting data related to marketing activities or sales to generate reports.

    • Marketing intelligence data can be gathered about the target market by exploring options such as gathering data from competitors' websites or industry trade publications, talking with distributors, making observations, attending trade shows or testing products.

    • MkIS allows integration of marketing research and data gathered from custom and syndicated research reports and primary or secondary research to gain valuable insights to make better decisions.

    • The MkIS process uses a sequential process to synthesize data and share findings to influence decision-making, including determining appropriate marketing metrics, gathering relevant data, graphing the data, distributing trend information, and using the data to determine the right course of action.

    • The processing of information is performed by the four subsystems of the MkIS, including internal reporting, marketing information search, market survey, and marketing decision analysis and support.

    • The information collection module of MkIS acquires information from external sources (secondary sources, competitors, distribution channels, interesting markets, etc.), internal sources (existing information, sales time series, cost of products, financial dimensions of the enterprise, etc.), and primary information collected through the conduction of market surveys.

    • The information processing module consists of the database management subsystem, statistical processing subsystem, and user-marketing information system interface subsystem.

    • A marketing information system should include components such as a system for recording internally generated data and reports, a system for collecting market intelligence on an ongoing basis, marketing analytics software, and a system for recording marketing research information.

    • Analytics software allows managers to gather all kinds of different information from a company’s database and incorporates regression models, linear programming, and other statistical methods to help managers answer “what if” types of questions.

    • Marketing intelligence refers to the data or information from external sources, such as industry associations or trade journals, and includes data related to the general marketing environment outside of the organization and the specific data within the market.

    • Gathering market intelligence involves a number of factors such as monitoring business environment changes, competitors' actions, customer preferences, and trends to generate ideas or product concepts that can then be tested by conducting market research.

    • The collection of marketing technology tools a company uses is called its marketing technology stack.

    • Marketing technology is integral to many parts of the customer buying process, including awareness, interest, desire, and action.

    • Analytics technology helps marketers understand the effects of marketing campaigns by providing data on the ROI for those initiatives.

    • CRM tech helps businesses build better relationships with current customers by tracking communication, processes, payment, and orders in one application.

    • Lead management is the process of identifying, nurturing, and converting potential customers into paying customers, and lead management software helps businesses capture leads and manage them through the sales process.

    • SEO software helps companies optimize their search strategy to help their products and sites potentially appear higher in customer search engine results.

    • Email marketing technology tools offer automation of email sequences for new customers, templates for creating emails, and management of customers' email addresses and preferences.

    • Customer experience software can help companies maximize the effectiveness of their marketing strategies by testing the effectiveness of company websites, interfaces, and applications.

    • Web analytics is the process of collecting and analyzing website data, including how users find your site and what they do while there, to drive decisions about how to develop, meet and measure your goals.

    • Marketing technology challenges include selecting the right platform, changing company culture, and overcoming unexpected hiccups during implementation.Marketing Information Systems: Understanding the Evolution, Roles, and Types

    • A system is a structure that implements an ongoing process with interacting, interrelated components that work together toward a common objective.

    • Management Information Systems (MIS) provide managers with the information they need to take decisions, plan, and control within their area of responsibility.

    • Marketing Information Systems (MkIS) are systems for gathering, storing, analyzing, and distributing valuable marketing data to help marketers make better decisions.
