Marketo COULD HAVE been acquired by one of several enterprise application vendors that simply don’t get marketing.

As I wrote in my June 30 post on consolidation among marketing automation vendors , I expect the number of competitors to shrink fairly quickly as new buyers concentrate their purchases among a handful of leading vendors. The pattern will likely repeat itself.
