The marketing automation market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• Recent years have seen a significant growth in the market size of marketing automation. A surge from $6.79 billion in 2024 to $7.44 billion in 2025, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%, is projected. This historical growth trend can be linked to the rising demand for personalized client experiences, the need for lead generation and nurturing, the efficiency of marketing operations, the analysis and measurement of campaign effectiveness, and the harmonization of sales and marketing procedures.

• The size of the marketing automation market is set to witness significant expansion in the coming years, with an estimated value of $10.54 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%.
The anticipated growth within the forecast period is largely due to the emergence of account-based marketing (ABM), AI and machine learning applications, a shift towards multichannel marketing, and an increased emphasis on customer retention and loyalty. Key trends expected within the forecast period include a heightened focus on customer retention automation, dynamic content automation, marketing operations and revenue attribution, compliance and data privacy automation, and integration with customer relationship management (CRM) systems.
The progression of the marketing automation market is anticipated to be influenced by the rise of big data and data analytics solutions. These technological tools play a key role for marketing automation corporations as they provide profound understanding of customers and enable them to present apt offers at the perfect timing, cultivate potential clientele, and assist them with sophisticated lead scoring. Utilizing tried and true techniques of big data and data science allows a marketing automation business to flexibly react to current and future customers' actions, and adapt a strategy to match their needs. For instance, Tech Jury, a software and tech critique firm based in the US, proposes that by 2023, the big data analytics market is predicted to escalate to $103 billion. Furthermore, statistics on the escalation of big data indicate that data generation will exceed 180 zettabytes by 2025. Moreover, the Big Data banking analytics market is projected to advance at a CAGR of 12.97% from 2020 to 2025, culminating to $62.10 billion by 2025.
