The role of marketing automation

Prevents a leaky funnel and waste marketing effort
Marketing automation is software
that automates your marketing
efforts. As a result, your  
sales and marketing teams  
can work in tandem with  
one another.

Marketing automation features
• Technology used to track, prioritize and analyze (leads,
customers and accounts)
• Platform for rapid development, testing and implementation
of content programs
• Provides the ability to continue conversations across
marketing channels, and to hand off those relationships to
sales teams

Perfect tool for integrated campaign management
Marketing automation systems provide a visual representation of the way that  
every asset and tactic join together to form a cohesive marketing campaign.
Instead of planning your marketing one tactic at a time, you can build and  
unleash complete, integrated campaigns that are personalized and responsive.

Marketing automation benefits
• Businesses of all sizes can properly utilize marketing
automation.  
• It increases the operational  
efficiency of your business  
while driving revenue.  
• Better leads = increased  
business and revenue

Back up your data with more data
Secondary research adds new dimension to
your existing data and supports your insights. Tools you can use:
• Google Trends
• Yahoo! Clues
• eMarketer
• comScore
• Forrester
• Nielsen

Segmentation is key
• Create content for each target
group using messaging that
resonates with them
• Reach them WHERE and
WHEN they consume media
Identify your targets. Create personas.

Measure, refine, optimize
• Measure the success of the
campaign. Are you close to
meeting your target goals?
• If not, what needs to change?
• Make the change, and start
over again.
Optimization cycle

Why test?
Only way to truly know what works and what doesn’t for
your industry, customers and products
No opinions
No “best practices”
No “design for design sake”

What can you test?
Processes/ user workflows
Landing pages
Campaigns
Design
Content
Marketing promotions
