then create marketing programs tailored to
their persona, we can boost conversion
rates without increasing spend.

SS – Thanks Alexis. I’m Stacey Steiger, VP of Marketing and Product Management at Sales Engine International. Sales Engine is an integrated marketing services firm. Our offerings span from marketing automation technology to lead management services with a special focus on content strategy, development and campaign execution. Sales Engine became an INC 5000 member in 2012, continuing a pattern of rapid growth that we attribute towards our homegrown methodology that helps us successfully FIND, CONNECT WITH, AND ENGAGE prospects on behalf of our clients.I’m excited today to be sharing with you many of the lessons learned as we have worked to increase lead conversion rates both for our clients, and within our own marketing programs. MR - And I’m Maribeth Ross, VP of Marketing here at NetProspex, a B2B data services company. Our two companies recently developed a partnership and as we got together to discuss our marketing strategies, it became clear we had several things in common that helped us achieve incredible revenue growth, so we decided to develop a webinar to share what’s worked for us to help other marketers achieve the same growth.
MB takes over - “Ask yourself, “who buys from my company?”, then back it up with data (a year’s worth is a good starting point).Extract data from your CRM to determine what contacts from which companies are making buying decisions, as well as who influences the decision to buy. You can look at titles, company size, industry vertical and location, mixing demographic and firmographic information. Once you have that, you’re ready for step 3.”
MB – The next step involves taking a good hard look at your database. You know the types of contacts you need to target, now you need to determine how many are necessary to meet your revenue goals. We have created a waterfall calculator, available on our blog, if you search “waterfall calculator”. Here you input your MGR goal, along with your average deal size, then add your typical conversion rates from the previous year at each stage of the funnel, and it will tell you how many touches you will need to reach your goal. If you find your database isn’t large enough, you can consider alternative data sources like purchased lists, adding email subscribe requests to new places like email signatures, or rent lists to be sent from publications or associations that your target buyer’s trust. MB then transitions Step 3 to SS
MBData – We all know data decays at a rate of 2% per month. Analyze and examine your data every six monthsRelevancy – The same thing is true for your messaging. Amplify – You spend a lot of money and time on your content. You want to make sure you get the most out of your investment. Consider extending the life of your content through Retargeting, marketing automation, and CTA Optimization. As an expert in these topics, Stacey will now speak to these points.
