What is Marketing Automation?
Marketing automation is technology that manages multifunctional campaigns and marketing processes automatically across multiple channels. It is used to maximize efficiency and increase revenue through automated digital marketing campaigns and sales activities.
As a marketing professional, you know how repetitive tasks like email marketing, social media posting, and even ad campaigns can be. Marketing automation technology automates those activities and makes them that much easier.
