Stratos BEFORE Act-On
• A handful of Qualified WebLeads from PPC (2007)
• By 2011 Needed a Solution to Process High Volume of Leads
Generated by Our SEO Efforts Over the Last 6 Years
• Minimal Outbound Messaging
• No Client/Prospect Re-engagement Campaigns
• Website Built On a Custom App By One Developer Minimal
Documentation
• Difficult to Manage Sales Team & Adverse to Change
• Accounting and Order Processing completely Manual Could
Not Scale the Business
17. www.act-on.com | @ActOnSoftware
Challenges
• Management of multiple vendors for email,
landing pages, analytics, content and forms
• Antiquated lead management manual process
• Minimal accountability
• Poor lead follow up due to cherry picking of
leads by sales
• Inefficiencies around time spent following up on
low-interest leads
• Constantly “reacting” making legacy technology
“fixes” budgets difficult to manage a complex,
and time consuming transaction process
19. www.act-on.com | @ActOnSoftware
Act-On, the Foundation
• Initially tried to piece together multiple
pieces…
• Act-On was implemented to consolidate
vendors, enhance visibility and streamline
marketing-to-sales handoff
• Salesforce Integration
• Web Visitor Tracking
• Forms Management
• Lead Scoring
• Landing Page Management
• WebEx Integration
• Automated Campaigns
20. www.act-on.com | @ActOnSoftware
Implementation
• Most of the time spent making sense of old
proprietary system and doing clean up of data
• Once I was ready for Act-On
• Speed/Timing (Laying Down Tracks While the Train
Was Coming)
• Integrations/Data Migration, Defining Lead
Distribution and Assignments
• Support (The Best I have Ever Experienced!)
