Founded by Experts to Reinvent Marketing Software

Marketo was founded in 2006 by former Epiphany executives, including Epiphany’s president and COO, chief technology officer, and vice president of marketing applications. They founded Marketo with the mission to reinvent marketing software by providing a complete enterprise marketing automation solution that was easy to use, easy to own and easy to buy.

Today, Marketo has over 70 customers in software, manufacturing, financial services and business services. A network of agency partnerships provides consulting, best practices and service bureau services. The Marketo Community and blog, found at blog.marketo.com, provides additional best practices and networking with fellow users and experts.

WHY MARKETO?

Other demand generation applications require significant up-front investment, integration and training. Once implemented, programs are difficult to change and adapt, often requiring professional services to make changes. Marketo understands that marketers cannot predict future challenges and opportunities and need a dynamic campaign management tool that lets them easily adapt marketing programs as they review results and evolve goals.

That’s why Marketo Lead Management is so fast and easy to use. Because it is delivered as an on-demand marketing service and preintegrated with CRM systems, customers can run their first Marketo campaign in less than one day, with no extra fees for integration or training. Pricing is available on an annual, quarterly, or monthly basis, starting as low as $1,500 per month.
