What Is Automated Marketing?
When we talk about automated marketing we refer to the use of innovative software to maximize the efficiency of digital marketing processes. Among them, we can mention lead nurturing, campaign management and segmentation, among others.
There is data that indicates that more than half of marketing campaigns work this way and that 80% are benefited by an increase in leads as a result.
In addition, it is noteworthy that by 2025 the marketing automation market is expected to reach a value close to 17 billion dollars.

Mautic saves human and related operating costs.
Working With Custom Templates
As we mentioned earlier, Mautic offers the functionality of sending fully customizable communications through templates. On the one hand, you can work both with the templates and the pre-assembled blocks that the platform offers. But what’s even more interesting is that you can create custom templates working with HTML code. This provides flexibility for the technical team to create custom designs with different elements, blocks, and variations. In turn, it allows not to be tied to a single template or an interface.
Going into the technical details, if you want to work with a pre-built template, you must prepare it to be able to import it. In order for Mautic to be able to recognize what elements your individual template contains (e.g. text boxes, images, buttons, etc.), what can be edited, and where new spaces can be added, you need to mark the HTML code with Mautic- data attributes specifics in advance:
- data-section-wrapper=”1”
- data-section=”1”
- data-slot-container=”1”
- data-slot=”[SLOT TYPE]”
- Slot Types: text, image, separator, button
In addition, you must create a ZIP file from your individual Mautic template. For more information on how to configure your templates, you can visit here.
