Marketo has come out with a great infographic depicting the characteristics of “Right Brain” and “Left Brain” Marketers. This insight is interesting. Traditional, pre-Internet marketers have generally been “left brain,” and even many contemporary Marketers, although they are utilizing tech tools that enhance creative productivity, still depend on a “Right Brain” approach. While this approach remains important to the firm, it is slowly and necessarily being eclipsed by Marketers who are more “Left Brain,” and as Scott Brinker (@chiefmartec) has coined, “Marketing Technologists.”
