A CRM for listening and interacting with customers
Salesforce is the number one CRM in the world, and Salesforce Marketing Cloud is its cloud dedicated to marketing professionals. It is a platform that is constantly growing, which adds that extra element of permanent transformation in line with new strategies and cutting-edge tools.
But the most important thing about the topic we are discussing today is that Marketing Cloud is a 360° platform that also has specific tools for the entire process. From capture to customer service. From SEM to automation.
The consultancy firm Gartner named Salesforce as one of the leaders in its 2019 Magic Quadrant for Multichannel Marketing Hubs. One of its great virtues is the ability to control all content from a single platform. In this way, the connection and conversation with the customer can be established quickly and flexibly. Here we would highlight the following:
- The ability to create dynamic content for any experience. Responsive content that adapts, without the need to create new content for each point of contact.
- The ability to transform data into charts and visual content. Such data can come from related content, objects and even data from external sources. From here, all these insights can be used to optimize all types of content (blogs, news, social media posts, etc.) from the same platform.
