Marketing the Agile Way | Discussion Guide
Scrum is an iterative, incremental methodology for project
management often seen in agile software development. Scrum can be
used to as a general project/program management approach and has
distinct benefits when applied to Marketing activities.
Key Benefits of Scrum/Agile in Marketing
              Transparency



              Prioritization



              Predictability


    Agile Glossary, Abridged
• Product Owner (PO): Responsible for maintaining the Backlog by representing the
     interests of the stakeholders.
•    Team Backlog: A prioritized list of high level requirements.
•    Sprint: A time period (typically 2–4 weeks) in which work occurs on a set of
     backlog items that the Team has committed.
•    Sprint Backlog: prioritized list of tasks to be completed in a sprint.
•    Epic: A large effort split up into multiple related user stories.
•    User Story: Detailed description of a task from stakeholders POV.
•    Planning Poker: The team estimates effort for the stories in the backlog. The PO
     uses estimates to prioritize & forecast stories based on velocity.
•    Point Scale: Point system, used to describe task difficulty, without assigning actual
     hours. HubSpot uses the Fibonacci sequence (1,2,3,5,8…).
•    Success Criteria: The exit-criteria to determine if a task is complete.
Workshop It!
•   Pick a project or team
•   Define a user story & success criteria
•   Epic? Break it down into executable tasks
•   Discuss how you’d evaluate points

                                               Success         Points
Prio               User Story                           Owner
                                               Criteria       & Status




•   What cultural barriers might you encounter?
•   Could this increase transparency?
•   Could this help you prioritize?
•   Could this improve predictability?
