Over the past two years, digital engagement hit a tipping point, with more customer interactions taking place online than in the real world<\/a>. This rapid digital acceleration was initially seen as a temporary measure to compensate for the pandemic and its associated restrictions. As time has passed, though, it has become clear that it\u2019s here to stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stratospheric rise of the digitally driven market has generated and continues to generate unfathomable amounts of customer data<\/a>. This data can cover the whole buying journey, from the initial search all the way to the post-sale follow-up. For marketers, this data is largely useless unless it\u2019s put to effective use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is where automation comes in. When fed into and optimised through a customer relationship management (CRM) platform<\/a>, that data can be automated in a variety of ways that directly improve your marketing ROI<\/a>. The good news is that automation doesn\u2019t have to be complicated and there are several things you can do to get started right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automation\u2019s many paths to improved ROI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The pot of gold for marketers in 2022 will be forming the deepest possible relationship with the individual customer, often without the luxury of face-to-face interaction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only way to achieve such intimacy is through a comprehensive and dynamic view of that customer\u2019s digital behaviour. This is exactly what Marketing Cloud<\/a> offers. It takes customer data from a range of sources and creates actionable insights for you to take forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of the many rewards reaped by automation tools: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improve customer satisfaction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Marketing Cloud allows you to understand everything about your customer.  This knowledge allows you to identify their unique wants and needs. You can then show them content, assets, and messaging at the right time in the right channel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, the customer is getting exactly what they want, when they want it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attract return customers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A continuation of that benefit is the ability to attract return customers. As you\u2019re able to provide such granular personalisation, relationships become ongoing and open-ended. Within Marketing Cloud, you\u2019re able to make use of applications such as Email Studio, Journey Builder, and Interaction Studio<\/a>. Each of these offer unique ways to nurture personalised customer experiences at every touch point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boost lead conversion rates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Personalisation based on in-depth data means higher levels of customer engagement. The more customers you engage through automation, the more leads you\u2019re able to convert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foster customer loyalty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Marketing Cloud\u2019s Loyalty Management<\/a> application gives you the ability to automate personalised loyalty programmes. Add this to the opportunities for personalised shopping experiences provided by Commerce Cloud<\/a>, and you have a powerful combo to foster customer loyalty<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accelerate speed of execution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Not only is setting up automation simple, but thanks to the degree of automation available to you, you\u2019re able to work faster, which frees up more time to focus on other important tasks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimise ad buying<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to highly customisable audience automation, you can feed segments directly into the world\u2019s largest social media platforms. Segmentation is also an automated breeze, as you can ask the CRM to find customers similar to your best customers. Alternatively, you can stop showing ads to newly acquired leads, then funnel them into a new segment, saving you money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The integration jackpot!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marketing Cloud integrates with a group of specialised Salesforce applications, each one designed to deepen your relationship with customers and improve marketing ROI. Salesforce\u2019s newest application that integrates with Marketing Cloud is Customer Data Platform (CDP)<\/a>. It allows even more powerful data-driven insights for deeper personalisation<\/a>, to the point where you can get to know and cater to the individual customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When looking at the data sources that feed into Marketing Cloud, the world is your oyster. Whether you\u2019re using Sales Cloud<\/a>, another CRM platform, or even disconnected data points such as contact information, that data can be fed into Marketing Cloud. In other words, if you\u2019ve got some data from somewhere, you can bring it in, work with it, and use it as the basis for automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting on board the automation train<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re new to the automation of marketing data<\/a>, the prospect can seem a little overwhelming. Before you start, it\u2019s important to know which kinds of marketing data can be automated. The short answer is almost everything. If you can write a process down on paper, then you can automate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A helpful way to determine what requires automation is to take a forensic look at your current processes and operations. Note down what is taking up the most time in the execution of campaigns, and target these first. For example, finding similarities between individual customers and creating segmented audiences can take a huge amount of time without automation. The task here is to do your research and due diligence, look for these procedural weaknesses, and determine what can be automated through Marketing Cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another way to frame your plan of attack is to analyse your existing data sources. For sales, if you\u2019re relying on online spreadsheets that don\u2019t talk to each other, you might benefit from feeding that data into a CRM such as Sales Cloud<\/a>, then integrating it with Marketing Cloud. Similarly, if you\u2019re using disconnected data sources to track individual metrics, you may look into consolidating those into a single source. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the case may be, know that if your data pipeline is siloed and unwieldy, there are ways to bring it all together to achieve a single source of truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t rush, or be a prisoner of the moment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A common pitfall for organisations who discover the power of automation is that they attempt to do too much at once. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These platforms are operational investments and are designed to become mainstays of your business. Therefore, you should start slowly and really dig into your existing processes and systems. This should allow you to understand which product or combination of products will best serve your objectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That aside, these products can only serve you if your data is of a high quality. A CRM gives you a database of past purchases, as well as demographic data, customer preferences, key contacts, and any problems that the customer may have encountered. High-quality CRMs<\/a> take it even further, tracking clients and leads as they progress through the marketing pipeline. The better the quality of your data, the more you\u2019ll be able to benefit from automation, and the more your marketing ROI will improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
