Why does SDM love automations?
Automations can relate to both email marketing and general internal actions undertaken within your business. They allow businesses to perfectly tailor emails to specifically target their leads and automate their delivery and tracking. On top of that ultimate time saving feature, automations can be triggered by any set of actions meaning your workflow is working automatically in the background to make sure every confirmation email or downloadable asset is sent out when clicked on. Even more exciting are drip campaigns. This means exposing your audience to a set of marketing emails that will be sent out automatically on a schedule. At SDM, strategy is behind every decision we make for our clients and this means we will determine what drip campaign is optimal for your business needs. An example can be an email sending as someone signs up, with another going out 3 days later with different copy and another going out the next weekend with an offer to re-engage the lead.

What’s the difference between email marketing and marketing automation?
Email marketing is only concerned with the actions taken to generate leads or sales via email. It is an essential part of marketing automation but a marketing automation platform encompasses a whole lot more. It not only allows businesses to automate their marketing tasks and create workflows to increase efficiency but provides access to a great amount of data meaning you can nurture your prospects with personalised and engaging content for optimised conversion. Additionally, when combined with a powerful CRM tool such as HubSpot, businesses can effortlessly embrace data, collecting valuable insights and putting them immediately to work. In short, email marketing is just one aspect of what automations can offer. There are many automation tactics, such as drip campaigns and retargeting, that can help make your email marketing more powerful and targeted. As your software tracks results you can research and test more automation strategies so that you can develop stronger relationships with your leads and customers.
