Individually they prove our abilities in specific areas. Together they show an organization

4Thought Marketing is proud to be both skilled and experienced
in implementing the Eloqua Campaigns module. We understand both the political and
business complexities that accompany calculating ROI for a marketing department…
and the technical ones that accompany the software. We are experienced in connecting
the CRM system for opportunity ROI calculation, the ERP system for closed loop ROI
purchase calculations, all of course, back to Eloqua itself... and delivering answers
that management can understand and trust.
Eloqua SmartStart Certification requires 4Thought Marketing
to not only prove that our people can teach and implement the Eloqua SmartStart
material, but that in real-life situations we can rapidly adapt the system to fit
different customer’s needs successfully. As part of our SmartStart certification
Eloqua attended our initial implementations, and on an ongoing basis, measures and
verifies that our customer satisfaction meets rigorous standards confirming that
we have the depth of technical and marketing expertise necessary to make SmartStarts
happen fast and successfully!

tested and skilled personnel that are deeply knowledgeable in the workings of the
Eloqua system. 4Thought Marketing has 6 certified Eloqua professionals, more than
twice the number required to achieve certification.
