How Dynamics 365 Marketing Transforms Business Processes
Covering the app functionality is essential to give a general overview. Now, we will focus on translating core functionality into the business language to show exactly what business challenges Microsoft Dynamics 365 Marketing solves and what benefits it provides.
When your team members share one source of company marketing data, they are less dependent on each other for exchanging and updating information. Having all the details of marketing activities at hand, marketing teams work more coherently and effectively.
Dynamics 365 Marketing delivers customer segmentation to tailor communication to customers’ needs and interests. Before launching a campaign, marketers think over its target audience, create a relevant segment and win customers’ trust by communicating with them at a new quality level.
Customer Journeys in Dynamics 365 Marketing helps you achieve automation of daily processes that can be triggered without the direct participation of your marketing team particularly valuable. Imagine that your team members have a board game where they map out a customer journey from different elements (customer segments, actions, triggers) and decide how the journey unfolds depending on a customer’s reaction to a marketing action.
You can optimize the process of launching future marketing campaigns and customize the templates in line with your corporate style from the very start. When creating emails is not a time-stealer anymore, your marketers feel inspired to diversify email campaigns and tailor communication to different customer situations.
Don’t overlook an interesting way to showcase products or services – events. Some of the possible ideas are exhibitions, lectures, runway shows, and presentations.
Dynamics 365 Marketing has a solution for you to gain first-hand customer feedback – Forms Pro. There, you can create surveys that can be further integrated with events, emails, and customer journeys. A customer’s survey responses not only reveal possible flaws and serve as growth points for a business, but they also can be of great help while processing this customer’s service requests and cases.
The process of generating and nurturing leads gets more effective. With an opportunity to set lead-scoring models, you have the Microsoft tool generating leads from marketing activities and scoring them automatically depending on their activities, interactions or over time. Additionally, Dynamics 365 Marketing has a connector to LinkedIn Lead Gen enabling you to collect leads from ads on LinkedIn.
Analytics is the key to understand how marketing activities resonate with the audience, what works best for them and what can be excluded from the marketing strategy. Dynamics 365 Marketing tracks KPIs for its every unit (email management, customer journeys, etc.) to provide you with insights into customer behavior and lead you to data-driven marketing solutions.
