GreenRope vs Act-On
A modern marketer does not just rely on marketing automation data, you need information that spans departments. This includes customer service, sales, and operations data. This data, when compiled, helps develop the buyer personas that drive your marketing strategies. When marketing automation is directly integrated with CRM, you bridge the gap between sales and marketing, increasing the effectiveness of your business processes. A standalone marketing software cannot give you this data. To top it off, GreenRope includes predictive analytics that will help you guide your sales and marketing strategies. Effective business processes means more conversions and longer-lasting relationships with your contacts.
