Top Marketing Tools In 2021
2021 has been one of the most challenging years for businesses everywhere. Some might argue that it has been a spectacular year for marketing companies as more & more companies opt in to new marketing strategies & moving to digital.
That also means that it is now more important than it ever has been, for us, in the field of marketing, to look to improve efficiency & work better. Today, we have collated a list of tools that can help you get ahead in this journey.
- Asana
Asana is certainly not one of a kind. But it is one of the best task management softwares that we have tried.
Asana allows you to create tasks, assign it to team members, assign priority & set up projects across teams within your organisation. You can also view these tasks as lists or in a calendar format & so on.
Our Favourite Feature : You can set sub tasks with dependencies in certain people, within tasks. This ensures that tasks that have dependencies, never get lost in the mess.
2. Google Analytics
Analytics allows you to track every move a customer makes, on your website. If you’re using a website builder, all you need to do is copy & paste your tracking code & you get all the analytics data on customer behaviour. If you don’t, you can always copy javascript code & place it within the <head> tag of your HTML page.
Our Favourite Feature : You can see the pages visitors have checked out, the drop rates across pages & so on under “behaviour flow”
