Friday, October 22, 2010 Tailwinds for Marketing Automation Software - Insight from CRM Analyst Lauren Carlson In a recent blog post from Software Advices Lauren Carlson , this emerging CRM analyst indicates how hot the market for marketing automation software has become, and although the niche was timid several years ago, marketers are now adopting these systems aggressively. | | | | | |
| CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MATRIX SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 ClickDimensions Grows Quickly by Offering B2B Marketing Automation as a Microsoft Dynamics CRM Add-On When I first wrote about ClickDimensions in a February, 2011 post , the concept was intriguing – a marketing automation add-on to Microsoft Dynamics CRM – but the product itself had been available for less than six months and claimed barely 50 clients. This is a bit limited – each node can only have yes/no branches – but it includes a reasonable set of actions including send an email, wait, notify user, add or remove from list, and run CRM workflow. This could well change: as marketing automation becomes more widely understood, it will be purchased by less sophisticated companies. | EVERYTHING TECHNOLOGY MARKETING MARCH 14, 2011  8 Tips for Marketing SaaS and Software in the Cloud Saugatuck Technology's Bruce Guptill released some interesting market research predicting that by 2014 the majority of new corporate B2B software purchases will be in the form of cloud software solutions (SaaS) rather than traditional on-premise software. What does this mean for B2B marketers selling cloud solutions and software as a service? Here is why. | SOCIAL MEDIA B2B APRIL 26, 2011  B2B Social Media and Content Marketing in the Sales Funnel Marketing software company Hubspot is a master at publishing content to drive awareness at the top of the funnel. Content generated leads can be tracked in a company’s CRM system, along with the description of the content that drove the lead. B2B buyers are looking to make safe purchases, as these investments could have significant impact on company performance. | WEBBIQUITY MAY 29, 2012  When Behavioral Tracking Gets Creepy Furthermore, the vendor can now tie this behavior to personal information purchased from online database owners and scraped from social media profiles and updates.

| - Oracle Integrates On Demand Marketing with On Demand CRM
Summary: Oracle has integrated marketing automation with its on-demand CRM product. In February they released the first “Oraclized” version of the product, now Oracle CRM On Demand Marketing. This included a redesigned user interface that matches the look, feel, and terminology of Oracle’s on-demand CRM product, is available in the same 20 languages, and allows unified user IDs and log-ins. The new system uses the same data structures as the rest of Oracle CRM On Demand. The company’s other big marketing automation product, Siebel Marketing, is on-premise software. MORE >> -
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MATRIX | FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2010  Doughnuts and Pizza Slices: Analyzing Consolidation and Competition Among Software Vendors
Summary: One way to understand consolidation and competitive trends affecting marketing software is to look at systems across several dimensions: how closely they relate to customers; whether they are operational or analytical; and whether they support online or offline activities. Here’s how I think of things: If you consider software applications from the view of customer relationships, they form a set of nested circles -- or perhaps a pile of doughnuts seen from above. The circle surrounding that holds CRM systems, which deal with identified customers as well as prospects. MORE >> -
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MATRIX | WEDNESDAY, JUNE 30, 2010 LoopFuse Offers Free Marketing Automation System: Another Step Towards Industry Consolidation
This means it had to be possible for clients to purchase and configure the system, learn how to use it and resolve support issues with next to no involvement by LoopFuse staff. For evidence that a free entry-level product does not automatically drive out higher priced systems, consider the hosted CRM market. It will also be competing with Eloqua, Silverpop and, perhaps most dangerously, the Market2Lead technology recently purchased by Oracle. The Market2Lead-Oracle deal raises the other major question facing marketing automation vendors: what role CRM vendors will play? MORE >> -
WHAT WORKS - WHAT DOESN'T | TUESDAY, JUNE 22, 2010 Why "Cost Per Lead" Is The Wrong Question
Ask anyone selling marketing software or services what their “cost per lead” is and you’ll get a different, and self-serving, answer. The cost is always the highest for whatever mechanism (trade shows, telemarketing, direct mail, marketing automation software) the competing vendor is hoping to trash. It is just a name and a possibly outdated title and email address from a purchased list?
