Marketing platform Marketo is helping to advance the combination of marketing and sales tech this week with the announcement that it has acquired sales engagement platform ToutApp.

ToutApp provides salespeople with tools for managing their efforts, including campaigns and marketing content. In the announcement, Marketo said its platform has been trying to bring sales and marketing departments together around customer engagement. ToutApp says it is used by over 100,000 salespeople and more than 400 enterprise customers. Deal terms were not announced.
