20. Marke&ng
Automa&on
Why we need it:
Without software to pull in data from all channels,
process would be messy and unmanageable
Tasks and workflows can be created from a template instead of by hand
Workflows can take into account details of each lead to customize their next
steps toward conversion
You can manage email, landing pages, social, contacts, tasks, calendar, and
countless other integrations from one interface
Create and deliver a customized experience dependent on a lead’s status
Active / Not Active / 1 month no Purchase / 6 months no purchase
