When choosing to work with a pay-per-click management agency, choosing one that is well-versed in marketing operations saves your business time and effort.
Many agencies will handle your paid search, display, video, or Facebook advertisements to get traffic to a landing page and capture leads, but their expertise stops there. Having a partner that asks questions about what data matters most to your sales team and how that data is best captured, communicated, routed, and managed in your CRM is above and beyond.
It is this type of thinking that we work to apply with nuance and detail at crftsmn.
What is marketing operations?
Shortly put, marketing operations is the management of the marketing programs and campaigns, systems that include lead routing, scoring, enrichment, and management, and technology integrations that your marketing runs off of and prepares leads through for your sales team. To put this in perspective – downstream from marketing is sales operations and fulfillment, upstream is product and engineering. An overarching view of these systems and procedures may be looked at under the revenue operations flag – the systems and procedures that drive revenue for your business.
Today, marketing operations is a specialized field requiring the ability to apply logic, process, and technical know-how to the different marketing systems and software in the market place.
How crftsmn plans marketing operations at your business

These platforms are designed to plug and play with a variety of your systems – from project management software like Asana to CRMs like Hubspot or Salesforce. We want to be able to provide you with the most streamlined service, with no muss or fuss with manually exporting / loading data – it just needs to flow and work.
When engaging with a client, we seek to understand your tech stack, know where to integrate, and build accordingly for your business’s needs.
