What is Marketing Automation?

Every marketing team has different initiatives and challenges. As marketers scale their efforts, more campaigns add up to their plate. Managing and tracking these activities can easily get out of hand as marketing teams grow. That’s when marketing automation comes in handy.

According to Marketo, marketing automation is a software platform that streamlines, automates, and measures marketing tasks and workflows. It eliminates repetitive tasks such as launching an email drip or tracking leads from various sources. Automation lets marketers focus more on doing other things than spending on a single task for half the period. 

Here are some of the things you can automate:

  • Email marketing
  • Analytics
  • Lead generation
  • Lead nurturing and scoring
  • A/B testing
  • Website personalization
  • Cross-channel campaigns
  • Segmentation

Growing marketing teams who use automation saves more time, improves engagement, and benefits the bottom line. If you have a small marketing team intending to capture more leads, then automation can help you. Using a marketing automation tool will give you these advantages.

 

Implement complex and multiple workflows

Meaningful interaction with prospects is critical to gain their trust and cultivate a relationship. Marketers send a series of pre-written emails at a cadence to build rapport with their ideal customers. The challenge for most marketers is sustaining the consistency of customer experience they induce across channels and accounts. With marketing automation, it lets you define the logic in your drip campaigns. You can set different criteria by audience segment, lifecycle stage, industry, and more––maintaining a hyper-targeted messaging for each group.

Expand market reach and target accounts

Automated workflow allows you to drip on different segments in a simple trigger. For instance, you already have emails written. Your emails can be placed in an automated queue––when to send, whom to target, and what kind of message to deliver. The beauty of automation is that as long as the contact meets the criteria, it automatically gets enlisted to the workflow. In manual email marketing, you are impelled towards writing copies and hitting send to the recipient every time there’s a new lead, repeat. It’s a mundane cycle. 

Marketing Intelligence

Aside from workflow automation, marketers can leverage the analytics aspect of automation tools. Most automation tools analyze and identify patterns that they will use in recommending methods on content optimization and other marketing activities. It helps you improve the user experience from the website to email copies, booking an appointment, and 1:1 interactions. Data can accumulate as you diversify your campaigns. Instead of manually collecting data—which is time—consuming–leave it to the automation tool. All you have to do is export the data when it’s time for reporting.
