How a Global Tech Firm Unified Email, Ads, and Events in Marketo for 25% More Conversions
Client Overview — A Global Tech Firm Needing Connected Journeys
A global technology company relied on Marketo as the backbone of its marketing, but its campaigns were siloed across channels. Email, paid media, and event programs were executed separately, creating disjointed customer experiences. Prospects often received redundant or irrelevant messages, reducing engagement and slowing pipeline progression.
Challenges — Disconnected Channels Created Fragmented Customer Experiences
- Siloed Campaigns: Email, ads, and events ran independently, with little coordination or shared data.
- Redundant Messaging: Prospects received overlapping or repetitive communications.
- Lost Opportunities: Without cohesive journeys, leads dropped out before reaching sales.
- Inefficient Spend: Marketing wasted budget retargeting contacts already active in other channels.
