Remember the days of hiring a web developer to create slow responding landing pages? With Marketing Automation platforms landing pages are easy to create with little to no design/coding experience necessary. Not only does this save you time but also money!
How do you know where leads are in their buying journey? Using historical data, demographic details, and behavioural cues, your marketing automation system will find them and rank them for sales readiness so you know where to invest your marketing energy. Avoid wasting time on non-leads and free your time to focus on prospects that are waiting for guidance with a smart lead scoring system.
A clean database is essential to any effective marketing campaign. Marketing automation platforms identify potential data issues like if an email address is imputed incorrectly and has a way through smart lists to identify missing information. The better your data is, the better your messaging will get, the better your numbers will grow.
How do you know if a campaign is a success or failure unless there is a report to review the outcome. Knowing the value certain campaigns provide (or fail to provide) is an important part of the success of your goals. Marketing Automation platforms make it like Revenue Explorer.
