The new Plannuh Automation package reduces manual processes associated with marketing budget and expense management to optimize team efficiency and accuracy

Plannuh Inc., the leader in AI-Driven marketing planning and budgeting software, today announces their new Plannuh Automation package for eliminating manual processes associated with spend management.  This new package automates laborious budget management tasks such as expense data entry and reconciliation with accounting systems to significantly free up marketer time while providing unprecedented spend accuracy and agility.

Marketers self-report that 26% of their program spending is wasted (Rakuten), largely due to poor planning.  Accurate planning is nearly impossible because most marketing budgets are spread across various spreadsheets and disparate systems, creating struggles with visibility, efficiency, and forecast accuracy.  Until now, in order to accurately track plans and forecast spend, marketers must manually enter vendor quotes, invoices, and expense receipts into spreadsheets. This process is both time consuming and error-prone for marketers and makes it nearly impossible to reconcile expenses with accounting systems.  The lack of an accurate view of planned, committed, and actual spending creates significant budget inaccuracies that can impact decision making, and often results in marketing teams leaving budget on the table or overspending.
