The Difference Between Marketing Automation and CRM
CRM and Marketing Software
In order to have an effective marketing strategy, you need an effective CRM. The difference between CRM vs marketing automation is the difference between a plant and a seed â your CRM is a tool that effectively lets you track your lead relationships, while your marketing automation helps nurture those relationships until they bloom into loyal customers.
Smart Email and CRM Marketing Automation Tools
The SharpSpring email marketing platform allows you to track leads âafter the clickâ with detailed analytics on every interaction. This helps you to send the right message at the right time and empower your sales team into action with real-time notifications about audience behavior.
Convert More Leads with Dynamic Forms
Collect leads that integrate directly with your marketing CRM software. Build, customize and reorder fields effortlessly with the sleek drag-and-drop editor. Our dynamic forms autocomplete fields for known visitors to improve conversions and look great on any site with custom CSS. You can even map fields from 3rd-party and native forms.
