The Boys of Spring have returned to hallowed stadiums throughout the nation this week, and with much anticipation professionals will be playing hooky to celebrate and watch this unique American Pastime. In these stadiums will be advertisements, vendors, jumbotrons and all sorts of marketing efforts to get fans to buy food, souveniers, and perhaps more tickets to future games. Young men and women will be sweating in silly looking mascot costumes, and the bugle call of “charge!” will rally the faithful of both the visiting and home teams. Double digit priced beer and the traditional fare of hot dogs, peanuts, and cracker jacks will continue to please the young initiates in their cute outfits brought to the ball park for the first time by their doting parents.
So, in full Friday and baseball spirit, here are 5 tongue-in-cheek reasons why Marketing Automation is better than baseball (and don’t get us wrong, we LOVE baseball and there aren’t that many things that are better!)
