For an example there is a huge organization and they have multiple departments and teams receiving data about their customers. All those data about sales data, marketing information, or demographic insights, companies rarely have a coordinated approach to engage with their prospective leads and convert them into satisfied customers. Lets say one of reputed company received about 50,000 – 70,000 leads from their many marketing campaigns and manually followed up on the leads, they got responses from only five out of a hundred leads.

This is the case where Artificial Intelligence can help by its Machine Learning algorithms, AI queries can deep-dive in to data about customers from a different third party applications like CRM, ERP etc. And through this process a significant portion of marketing can be automated and personalized to suit the tailored requirements of customers.
