Marketing without clarity gets messy. Most teams track KPIs, but without a goal management system like OKRs, your strategy often drifts.
This episode is for CMOs and marketing leaders who want to stop confusing OKRs with KPIs and start planning smarter for the next quarter. Sophie Hedestad (CEO of Noxit, ex-CMO at Meltwater & Netigate) shares her practical framework for turning vague marketing goals into focused, transformational outcomes that align the entire company.
Key Takeaways:
– The difference is transformation: OKRs are a focus tool for transformational goals, while KPIs are your health metrics for business-as-usual operations.
– The 3-3-3 model: Structure your goals with three Objectives, three Key Results per objective, and three Initiatives per Key Result for mental clarity and easy follow-up.
– Alignment is the superpower: OKRs create both vertical and horizontal alignment, making marketing’s work transparent and helping you collaborate across Sales, Product, and Tech.
– Protect the time: The biggest implementation challenge is the “whirlwind” of daily tasks. You must protect time to work on your transformational OKRs.
– Write better KRs: A good Key Result gives context (e.g., “NPS is currently 30, we will push it to 40”) instead of just listing a number (“NPS to 40”).
