Let's Talk

+40% increase in business volume in 2 years with ABM strategy and CRM and Marketing Automation technologies

As a B2B product, Accept had difficulty reaching the decision-makers of target accounts. Therefore, an Account-Based Marketing strategy was designed, supported by CRM and Marketing and Sales Automation, which allowed to increase sales in target accounts and also to increase the database and brand awareness. In addition, marketing technologies allowed to optimize marketing and sales processes, align teams, and get a 360º view of all funnel steps. With this solution, Accept had 40% growth in business volume in 2 years.

In terms of sales value there was a big increase indeed, but I can't relate it only to the introduction of these technologies. Where there was effectively an increase directly related to these technologies, was in the increase of contacts and brand awareness.

The Marketing part was not very well worked out or systematized, and when we decided to take this step and invest in a sales team to increase the success of our service, we realized that it made no sense to do it without first complementing it with marketing software.

The Challenge

Marketing and Sales alignment and KPI control

Having launched a B2B product, the ACCEPT System, Sinmetro found it difficult to attract its main target audience: industrial managers in the areas of production and quality. It also needed better alignment between the marketing and sales teams, as well as a detailed view of all the steps in the marketing and sales funnel.

All processes now go through the CRM, so there was clearly an increase in productivity and everything became clearer and correctly directed.

The Solution

Account-Based Marketing supported by CRM and Marketing and Sales Automation

To overcome the challenges that Sinmetro felt, an Account-Based Marketing plan was designed to attract and win key accounts, with a profile that had the characteristics of the ICP (Ideal Customer Profile) and the main personas. So, an ABM strategy was created that combined CRM and Marketing and Sales Automation. Therefore, several relevant contents were created, as well as personalized email workflow sequences, in order to capture the attention of the decision makers of each target company. Given the nature of the business and the volume of information to be worked with, Zoho One proved to be the ideal tool, after Ontraport was also used. To improve the global vision of the entire marketing and sales funnel, Maestro was used, with dashboards to analyze the entire customer journey and the marketing and sales performance.
