Breakthrough Capabilities Build on Marketo NEXT's Innovations to Make Companies Even More Intelligent, More Social, More Connected and More Agile
SAN MATEO, Calif., -- Marketo(TM), the fastest growing provider of Revenue Performance Management (RPM) solutions, today announced the latest enhancements to its Revenue Cycle Analytics(TM) (RCA) and Marketo Lead Management (MLM) products, featuring powerful insights into marketing program effectiveness, as well as advanced social media and integration capabilities.
Building on the innovation themes of the Marketo NEXT release in late May, the new features allow the largest enterprises and mid-sized businesses alike to be:
-- More Intelligent: Accurate insight into the effectiveness of individual
marketing programs - With a remarkably easy-to-use dynamic interface,
Revenue Cycle Analytics now provides a greater level of insight into the
impact of individual marketing programs - and entire channels, such as
event marketing versus email marketing. Two new models help companies
attribute the source of leads and closed deals:
-- Acquisition Attribution keeps track of which marketing programs are
sourcing new leads and measures the downstream revenue impact of
these programs by providing such metrics as total new opportunities,
pipeline and closed revenue.
-- Success Attribution recognizes that it takes multiple touches from
multiple programs to close a deal. Marketo can uniquely
differentiate the value of each individual touch, helping marketers
understand which programs are most effective at converting existing
leads to opportunities and closed deals, and which reached the
program goal (i.e. buyers registered for a webinar and attended
versus those who registered but did not attend). With this level of
program attribution precision, marketers can make more informed
decisions when planning new programs.
-- More Social: Social sharing of landing pages and reporting - Marketo
makes it even easier to add social sharing buttons to landing pages,
including LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Google+. Marketers can keep
track of the leads generated by social visitors, including when
prospective customers share web content with their own friends and
colleagues, allowing marketers to identify the key influencers in their
networks.
-- More Connected: Extended reach into CRM solutions with native APIs - A
new set of application programming interfaces (APIs) are now available
for integrating data about sales opportunities into Marketo. Customers
with any type of customer relationship management (CRM) solution can
leverage sales revenue data within Marketo to further enhance
segmentation, campaign execution, and revenue cycle analysis.
-- More Agile: Even better usability - Since its inception, Marketo has
been lauded for its usability, most recently by CRM Magazine. As part of
this ongoing focus, Marketo now makes marketing and tracking the revenue
cycle easier than ever.
-- Personalized Landing Pages - Marketers can build stronger
relationships with prospects and customers through high-impact,
highly personalized landing pages. Users can easily insert content
based on any combination of program, lead, company, system and
member data - all through a single template across multiple
recipients, saving time and effort.
-- Configurable Sales Insight - To help sales reps better prioritize
leads based on what is relevant to their company, Marketo now
enables customers to customize the "Best Bets" calculation, so they
choose which value determines the best lead quality and urgency.
-- Support for Firefox v6 and Chrome - To meet customer demand for the
latest browser options, Marketo now supports Firefox 6.0 and Chrome.
"More than ever, marketing organizations are being asked to spend budgets more effectively, only investing in the most impactful programs, while trimming others. Marketo gives them the insight and precision to not only succeed in this, but also get credit they deserve in the sales opportunities they're influencing," said Paul Albright, chief revenue officer for Marketo. "Our new enhancements give marketers the chance to truly affect their company's revenue, and to own their seat at the bigger revenue table."
