Quick Start Marketing Automation
Getting your nurture programs up, running and optimized now!
Workshop Description
Are you getting the most or the minimum out of your marketing automation? Most organizations have taken the first step in marketing automation, acquiring an enterprise class marketing automation system such as Marketo, Act-On, Eloqua, Aprimo or Pardot, and hired an administrator to run it. However, very few organizations are taking advantage of the rich features these platforms offer or have the content to endlessly feed their nurture campaigns.
Furthermore, many organizations have nurture campaigns that have not been audited, updated, optimized or coordinated with sales and digital media programs. They are using stale content, old messaging and have no alignment with sales, marketing or media.
This seminar will teach you the approach to quickly launch and audit marketing automation-based nurture campaigns and integrate them with your media and sales campaigns without getting bogged down by overthinking the process.
