So.our friends at Marketo announced today that they've received another $25 million in venture funding. Marketo's strategy has been clear from the start: spend heavily to establish a strong position despite a relatively late start in the market. Obviously Marketo has a plan in mind and has convinced some pretty savvy investors that it makes sense. Certainly Marketo could be acquired by one of those companies but I don't think the price would be high enough to make the VCs happy.

As a Marketo agency partner, I attended along with colleagues from Spear Marketing Group to greet clients, talk shop, and hear how other companies – including Marketo themselves – are putting technology to use in the service of improved lead management. From Marketo’s perspective, I understand the need to frame marketing automation in ever more mission-critical terms. Think you have enough content? It’s all heady stuff. Email? Really?). | THE POINT JUNE 14, 2011 Marketo Email Campaign Keeps It Short & Sweet A client confessed recently that one of the reasons his company had selected Marketo as a marketing automation provider was because he was so impressed by their marketing. Quite apart from the merits of their technology, Marketo does indeed have a reputation for (to borrow a time-worn phrase): eating their own dog food.
