…
… Let’s finish here to avoid falling into deep depression.
But does marketing really have to be such miserable, unappreciated, and difficult job?
No!
It’s our mission to make marketing as important in companies as accounting, IT, logistics, and
sales departments – HR not included here.
For more than 4 years we have been working with over 5000 companies and their marketing
teams all around the world, successfully striving to change the way marketing teams work and
making them provide real value to companies and real results.
How does it all happen?
Collecting valuable customer data, both behavioral and transactional, which increase sales and becomes a real currency in the hands of a marketer, a currency that can be exchanged with other departments within the company
Using this data in real time marketing automation processes configured within SALESmanago Marketing Automation, delivering the right offers to the right people at the right time and via the correct marketing channel (email, website, social media, mobile, ad networks and direct sales channels)
Accumulation of knowledge and experience of both marketing and sales teams in automatic marketing processes
Rational marketing
We make marketing rational. We transform it into an art form and a science, changing the way marketers operate. We encourage them to:
Forget all the marketing buzzwords
Don’t be fooled by self-proclaimed marketing gurus
Base decisions on solid data
Track, measure, and optimize
Get tangible results.
