THE CURTAIN:
MARKETINGAUTOMATION (MA)is the technology that allows companies toSTREAMLINE, AUTOMATE, AND MEASUREmarketing tasks and workflows so they can increase operational efficiency andgrow revenue faster.
"With Marketing Automation, you are able to understand short instances of behavior over time, thus getting a better understanding of how to interact with an individual and perhaps predict future behavior and actions."

“Without marketing automation, you are just guessing – just hoping that people will take the bait and be ready to buy your products. Statistics show that buyers don't do that. They want to learn at their own pace and be reached when they need more information or are ready to buy. A well-constructed marketing automation strategy makes that a reality.”
JOHN MCTIGUE, EXECUTIVE VP AND CO-OWNER OF KUNO CREATIVE
WITH MARKETING AUTOMATION, COMPANIES CAN EXPECT THREE CORE BENEFITS:

“Today's marketers need to speak the language that their CEO and CFO can relate to and understand. Gone are the days where marketers talk about website hits and Facebook likes. Today's marketers need to ensure that they have both pipeline and revenue targets.”
