Only 19% of B2B companies have implemented marketing automation*. Of those, only about 1/3 have begun to leverage the personalization and other capabilities. So you're probably either:
- one of the 1/5 of companies that has done so.....but hasn't begun to really unlock the power of the tool
or
- part of the huge 80% that haven't even begun to incorporate marketing automation into your business process
But here's the rub...the name "marketing automation" and the organizational ownership of the toolset (by the marketing department) both drastically limit the value to your company. It's an awesome tool to empower field sales and indirect channel sales teams as well.
Too often marketing sees the tool only as it was originally designed - to assist in lead generation and nurturing. Once a lead meets the "sales ready" criteria it's heaved over the wall to the sales team. In a perfect world every rep is digitally savvy and takes time to research and interpret the volume of valuable buyer behavior and insight data that marketing collects. But......well, we all know it's not a perfect world.
