Enterprise Marketing Management (EMM) is software that helps marketers
reduce costs, boost productivity and grow revenue - across relationship
marketing, internet marketing, and marketing operations.
EMM enables marketers to identify and act on new customer insights, as well
as collaborate with each other and external agencies to deliver effective
initiatives on time and within budget.
A complete EMM solution consists of:
- Web and customer analytics for understanding and anticipating
customer behavior
- Event-detection to easily track and quickly respond to customer
behavior patterns
- Interaction and campaign management for implementing and executing
timely, consistent communications across customer touch points
- Lead management to ensure leads are delivered and acted upon
- Marketing resource management (MRM) for managing budgets, creative
production, marketing content, and other resources
Individually or as an integrated solution, these capabilities reduce
time-to-market through automation, improve customer strategies and targeting
through analytics, and prove the value of marketing through closed-loop
measurement and reporting.
With over 500 customers across five continents from a variety of industries,
Unica's Affinium Suite is recognized as the leading EMM solution. Affinium
is available "on-demand" (hosted) or for in-house deployment.
