Here is an interesting article to kick off your day.

A study published by Lenskold Group / Pedowitz Group in 2012 indicated that companies using marketing automation report increases in leads, sales and revenue metrics.

Over 60% reported better quality leads generated and passed to sales, and almost half reported a greater percentage of leads accepted by sales.

However, only 13% of respondents reported being very satisfied with their automation efforts, and 29% were somewhat or very dissatisfied.

The primary reasons for dissatisfaction?  At the top of the list – lack of content for campaigns, followed by lack of alignment with sales, and lack of optimization technologies.  Food for thought!
