Marketing Automation

DRIVE HIGHER CUSTOMER LIFETIME VALUE AND REDUCE MARKETING WASTE WITH MARKETING AUTOMATION

At SQLI, we believe Marketing Automation to be a customer-centric approach to ensure that your customers are getting the right information, at the right time and through the right channel, and ideally in a completely personalized manner. Put this way, it sounds like the goal of any marketer right? The automation behind the marketing automation approach enables your team to deliver on this promise, at scale, since this would be inefficient to do on a manual basis.

However, Marketing Automation often becomes more complex than anticipated, and many companies struggle to see the results they expected. This is why, getting the support of an experienced 3rd party, will help you keep control, prioritize and optimize your marketing automation approach, where needed, to ensure its profitability, efficiency and success.

The pillars to ensure successful Marketing Automation are:

Is your data ready for Marketing Automation?

Your marketing automation approach will only get as far as your data capabilities go. Marketing automation always relies on data as a trigger for the "automated" actions established in the automated journeys/processes. The second biggest pitfall of many companies when it comes to marketing automation is to ignore the requirements for a solid data foundation. These companies end up blaming the marketing automation approach later on for the lack of results in the long run.

But, at SQLI, we help you to first ensure your team can keep track of this data and create the right actionable insights through the entire customer journey. We help you with:

Offline & online data integration
Customer data management: event data, behavioural, customer attributes, transactional and customer service data integrated into individualized customer profiles.
Data privacy and security
Actionable insights / triggering events across any channel
AI and predictive data models

Marketing Automation Strategy & Execution

We help you take a look at your overall digital marketing maturity and performance, your resources and goals and create a roadmap with quick wins and long-term opportunities. This will help us prepare a pragmatic strategy to drive you towards integrating more advanced topics such as omnichannel personalized campaigns, AI recommendations, or predictive marketing that will set you apart from your competitors, at a pace that fits your organizational maturity development.
