2.1. Define All the Different Marketing Goals
In the initial stages of developing a successful marketing strategy, marketers can clearly define all their goals and objectives that aid in creating programmable automation efforts.

Consider creating persuasive messages that navigate customers through the sales funnel, anticipate customer behavior, and design more effective automation workflows.

Marketers and sales professionals can gather the data from:
