That is unfortunate because Marketing Automation software is a very useful tool and in my opinion, a necessity these days. Number of campaigns sent out, trade shows attended or press releases published do not generate revenues. The first is a diagnostic tool and the second one measures the health of the business.

But I digress… what I’ve been focusing on for the past few posts is on how you can use tools you already have at your disposal (like MS Outlook for most corporate users) to become more effective and productive.

I don’t know about you, but so far it seems like Social Media is nothing more than just another media, another tool in the marketer’s arsenal. The same questions you would ask before using any marketing tool available you should also ask of the Social Media tools. Maybe not so much. What is it for? Who is our target?
