4. EXECUTE MASS EMAIL CAMPAIGNS

The email tool can also be used at a later stage in the buying

time for other tasks.

5. REDUCE NEED FOR LARGE TEAMS

Without automation, managing and monitoring mass email

campaigns would require a large army of marketing folks. With

automation just a handful of marketers can do the job.

instantly. This allows you to react faster. If

and open rates.

Track prospects that check out your online demo, or look at

your pricing page. Pass them onto sales as they are sales-

ready. Other visitors may require further nurturing via a drip

marketing campaign.

They need to tell the world what they sell and why customers should buy from them.
