Too many tools and formats to launch a simple marketing campaign make the process inefficient, expensive, and extremely difficult to scale.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2058\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.simplified.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/hero-1024x538.jpeg\" alt=\"Design and collaboration platform for all your marketing\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_whats_next\"><\/span><strong>So, what\u2019s next?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/emojipedia.org\/rocket\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\ud83d\ude80<\/a> <strong>We\u2019re building a remote-first team.
