Marketing Automation Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Component (Solutions and Services), Application (Email Marketing, Campaign Management, Mobile Applications and Other Application), Enterprise Size, End User and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Marketing Automation Market is accounted for $5.96 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $15.68 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period. Automating tedious marketing tasks using software is known as marketing automation. In addition to increasing productivity, marketing teams may automate monotonous processes like social media posting, email marketing, and even ad campaigns to provide their clients a more individualized experience. These processes are accelerated and made simpler by the technology underlying marketing automation. The majority of companies view marketing automation as a middle-of-the-funnel technology that works well for nurturing prospects through pre-written email sequences. A disconnected experience for prospects and customers as they travel from marketing to sales to customer care might result from this strategy, even though email marketing is a wonderful application of marketing automation.

According to the CMO Survey by American Marketing Association and Duke University in January 2021, B2B product marketers in the United States suggested that their spending on traditional advertising was expected to decline by 0.61% in the following year, while the digital marketing spending was projected to increase by 14.32%.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Automated marketing solutions are being adopted by various small and medium-sized businesses

Due to the growing demand to lessen the burden of repetitive tasks, the move toward the internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, and other cutting-edge technologies, as well as the growing demand for streamlined business operations, capturing customer requirements from various sources, and lowering operational costs. Additionally, cross-selling opportunities, enhanced client involvement, shorter contact times, and greater sales to smaller businesses are all provided by marketing automation tools.

Restraint:

Integrating marketing automation tools with other enterprise software

The consumer journey has grown more complicated as a result of the quick changes in consumer purchasing behaviour since it now incorporates several touch points and channels. To determine the ROI, the marketing automation software gathers client information from a variety of apps. However, enterprises still have significant difficulties integrating new solutions with their current systems due to system complexity and implementation costs. The vendor must be able to integrate the suggested solution with the client's business systems in order for the customer to profit from the marketing automation software. Despite a vendor's best efforts, budget restrictions and a lack of resources prevent start-ups or smaller enterprises from implementing this organic strategy, creating a problem for this industry.

Opportunity:

A growing number of applications for AI and machine learning

The marketing environment has seen significant change during the past few decades, particularly more recently. Enterprises now have access to a vast quantity of data, and they get this data from every source imaginable. Therefore, regardless of their size, structure, or business strategy, firms have begun using marketing automation solutions after realizing the necessity for innovative new technology and comprehending the limitations of present technologies. For businesses, marketing automation has opened up new possibilities. Additionally, AI and ML are seen as the upcoming marketing revolution. By removing manual labor, monotonous jobs, personnel expenses, and human error, the use of AI and ML in marketing automation software provides businesses a competitive edge thereby propelling the market growth.

Threat:

Concerns about confidentiality and privacy

Organizations today need increasingly rigorous security and privacy measures to avoid breaches as the use of SMAC technology has increased. If these measures are not taken seriously, the success of digitalization will be negatively impacted. It's critical to adequately handle the issue of data security and privacy. The cloud-based marketing automation software has a higher prevalence of other security risks, such as account hijacking, insider threats, malware injections, unsecure Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), shared vulnerabilities, and data loss.

COVID-19 Impact:

As consumers strive to take advantage of the benefits of marketing automation software and services, such as expansions and lower cost, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of marketing automation solutions across business verticals. As organizations become more digitally integrated, more people are using the internet, and more people are using mobile devices, the need for marketing automation solutions has been growing substantially.
