Automating Your Path to Business Excellence with Clate Mask
The DigitalMarketer Podcast
Introduction
This chapter explores the significance of automation in managing time and resources effectively, highlighting its role in scaling businesses from 100,000 to a million. The hosts introduce Clate Mask, CEO and co-founder of Keep, a platform that offers automation services, and discuss their experience with the platform.
How do you take someone from being a brand-new lead to a raving fan? And how do you do it in a way that allows your business to grow without becoming too reliant on your time and effort? The answer for most (smart) digital marketers lies in automation.
Automation can be very personal as you take a potential new client from lead capture to lead conversion and then even life cycle automation. Understanding how your CRM interacts with your database is also crucial as you set about creating something that doesn't require you to be there all the time.
Clate Mask is the CEO and Co-Founder of Keap, a private company that offers an e-mail marketing and sales platform for small businesses, including products to manage customers, customer relationship management, marketing, and e-commerce.
Clate is espousing the virtues of automation in today's conversation with host Mark de Grasse, to the point where it becomes clear that not automating is almost irresponsible for your business.
Clate also offers solid tips on how to automate one thing at a time, and how to be consistent with your automation as you find and then look after your next 'raving fan'.
Learn about the importance of automating, how to generate email follow-up, and all the steps in between, as you make your business less dependent on you so that you avoid that nasty plateau that becomes all too common when we try to do it all ourselves!
