Demand Generation Audit Services
A Simple Solution to a Complex Problem
For years, most companies continue to list “lead generation” and the lack of highly qualified leads as the number one obstacle they face in attempting to reach their sales goals. Whether companies struggle with lead generation due to a lack of internal resources, expertise or bandwidth issues – it’s a critical problem that’s getting more difficult to solve every year.
Successful lead generation is no longer the simple, activity based effort of the past. Traditional activities, that worked just a few years ago, seldom work in today’s market. Gone are the days when a company could rely on outbound activities to produce highly qualified leads. In fact, lead generation now has become demand generation – a required and full integration of both inbound and outbound marketing practices.
Because successful demand generation is such a complex process, many companies simply don’t know where to begin. That is…until now.
Over the last decade, PipelineDMS has perfected a unique closed loop demand generation audit specifically designed for today’s marketplace and prospect behavior. Based on industry-leading, best practices our RAMP™ demand generation audit provides a proven roadmap for companies looking to build successful and sustainable demand generation results.
Using our exclusive RAMP™ audit process, our demand marketing specialists will come on-site and analyze your current marketing strategies and both inbound and outbound processes. After a thorough review, they will make specific recommendations, set prioritized objectives and provide a roadmap to solve your demand generation issues once and for all!
