What is marketing automation?

Let’s take a brief look back at the recent past. Marketing automation has actually been around since the 1980s.

The use of software to automatically insert names and addresses from your database onto the letters and envelopes you wish to send to consumers by mail has been a mainstay of direct marketers for decades.

The difference between then and now is the concept of ‘real-time’ and the vast amount of data available to companies on their customers via various digital and offline channels.

When you visit Amazon while logged in (which you will remain until you physically log out again), you will find your name has been dynamically inserted around the page and based on your browsing history, past purchases and ‘wish list’, brand new products are presented to you thanks to a predictive algorithm.

All of this ‘dynamic personalisation’ and email communication is possible with marketing automation.

Marketing automation for all!

Marketing automation was once the preserve of only the most financially successful businesses. Technology needed to create the systems required heavy investment and was built ‘in-house’. Regularly the cost of building the software outweighed the cost-savings.

However thanks to a proliferation of third-party suppliers, sophisticated automation software is now much more readily available to B2C and B2B companies both large and mid-size.

In fact B2B companies are taking great advantage of marketing automation software by integrating it with their existing CRM system.

This helps combine and streamline both marketing and sales efforts, and creates better visibility for both teams.

Marketing automation for you (and only you)

There has been no bigger aid towards the democratisation of marketing automation than social media.

Now it’s not just the postal service, email and ad retargeting that can be used to broadcast messaging to consumers, social media channels such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn have bcome an important marketing channel, with more consumers using the channel to not only receive your messaging but also to communicate with you directly too.

As it’s a two-way channel, and the most successful companies are the ones that engage directly in real-time with users, successful social media management requires a great deal of time, resources, energy and skills.
