Key Observations

1. Huge investments and million dollar acquisitions are

happening in this Marketing automation industry, which


makes them financially very strong.
2. Few products are strongly focused in B2B.
3. Most of the products have acquired some other products

for specific features and integrated them, so their


integration may not be seamless.
4. Most of the products are not handling paid marketing as

of now, which is good opportunity for us to differentiate.
