Interactive Webinars:
Adobe Marketo Engage is thrilled to announce the introduction of our latest innovation: Interactive Webinars powered by Adobe Connect to its Event and Webinars Marketing suite of capabilities. This unique capability that has been launched in Adobe Summit 2023 provides event marketers with a unique opportunity to manage all the activities in the virtual-event marketing lifecycle within Marketo without having to manage multiple tools and avoiding hassles related to the timely and reliable exchange of data between multiple tools.
Interactive Webinars is designed to act as a one-stop solution to all the needs of an event marketer from the creation of a webinar to its promotion and from webinar delivery to analysis post delivery. An event marketer can ensure that the objectives of designing and running the webinar are met and rich insights obtained from the webinar participation are utilized to accelerate the conversion velocity.
Benefits:
Here are some of the key benefits of Interactive Webinars:
- Streamline your event marketing efforts: Interactive Webinars is built-in webinar creation and management tool that allows you to create, promote, and deliver webinars all in one place never leaving Marketo Engage. Creating events in 3rd party webinar provider interface, performing multiple authentications, waiting for registration and attendance data to be exchanged and mapping the webinar data back to Marketo Engage for enhanced nurturing are activities of the past.
- Richer insights for decision-making: Marketers can now gain access to webinar activity data they didn’t have access to before including information related to engagement such as what polls were answered and what were the answers, what questions were asked, and whether they were answered, who has shown interest by clicking a particular link or filling a form or downloading a document and what was the participation duration of individual participants during the event. Marketers can use this data directly inside Marketo Engage to build smart lists, personalize messaging, and build nurture campaigns maximizing their overall return on webinar investment.
