Marketing automation helps you to effectively reach prospective customers across multiple online channels such as email, social media, mobile, inbound marketing, which you need to nurture and convert. Marketing automation streamlines routine processes (email marketing, campaign management, etc.) to let you focus on more demanding activities, such as content marketing to boost lead-generation. Efficient automated processes can cut marketing expenses by 12% on average and increase your sales productivity by 14%.

All marketers want to automate marketing tasks and processes and be able to send a series of emails to everyone who downloads a white paper. Such emails can be sent manually or automated. As you collect more leads and deal with more customers, you need to establish a process to track and nurture your leads. Automation helps you track prospects’ activities, such as the links they clicked in the brand’s email newsletter, and enables you to customize and personalize your messages to enjoy better sales conversations.
