The 3 Musts of Marketing Automation

June 10, 2016

Marketing automation is something that sounds scary and robotic for many companies, but it’s not. Marketing automation allows one to efficiently and effectively market across multiple channels by automating repetitive tasks. This is why over 84% of top-performing companies have used or plan to use marketing automation. Marketing automation will improve your business in many ways, one of these being converting leads into customers. All businesses desire more customers, so shouldn’t you start using marketing automation? Or perhaps you are already using marketing automation but want to improve your efforts. Marketing automation can also help to seamlessly combine your offline and online efforts. For example, say your top salesperson is presenting at a large conference and she puts up a slide showing her email address. She then tells the audience, if they’d like her presentation slides, simply send her a note.

According to Christian Weiss, director ABM EMEA at Autodesk, Germany languishes behind English-speaking countries when it comes to account-based maturity, often due to their reluctance to be the first to try something new. “Germans aren’t always keen on trying and testing from scratch and have a tendency to overthink,” he says. “While other cultures might try new approaches and technologies and fail, at least they’ve tried it. And this is a huge aspect of making account-based principles work. It requires deep change across culture, people and technology – and this isn’t always a good fit for people who are hesitant to embrace change, which isn’t traditionally part of a German’s DNA.”

The Marketing and Sales Alignment Playbook

whitePaper | September 30, 2022
