Intelygenz empowers businesses globally, helping them do more with less, efficiently grow, and gain a competitive edge - teaching them how to learn, predict and take action to capitalise on existing assets and drive change.
OBJECTIVE
From Spain to San Francisco
Well established in their field in the European market, Intelygenz were starting to penetrate the US market and needed help increasing brand visibility in a thriving, continuously evolving industry.
At the time, Intelygenz had a small online presence that had grown organically thanks to referrals and PR. But they had no historical data, analytics, strategy, personas, or value proposition, which meant they were struggling to pitch to prospects all of their successful projects with global organisations over the last 15 years.
While we needed to start by building the brand story that sets them apart from other US A.I. companies, we also had to develop their website, case studies and quality collateral for the sales team.
OUR COLLABORATION
An endless desire to enhance knowledge
With an internal culture of experimentation that underpins everything they do, Intelygenz were keen to test multiple approaches across a variety of channels to maximise their learning and enhance efficiency.
Intelygenz came to Code Milk for a high-touch marketing relationship that would see them through their brand reposition. They wanted an agency with a flexible framework that could address their ambitious goals, adopt quickly to the regular shifts in priorities, and offer transparent and fluid communication, as their teams were based over multiple continents.
We developed a communication plan which considered different time zones, preferred ways of working, and a hybrid approach by working between emails, calls and Slack to ensure everyone on the Intelygenz team understood our time-proven methods and the metrics we measured to progress towards their goals. As HubSpot Partners, we maximised efficiency by automating workflows and generating insightful data and reports. Just like Intelygenz do with each client project, we were able to extract value from every single approach.
APPROACH
Quality content with strategy at the foundation
With our number one goal being to grow brand awareness and credibility in the US market, we started by performing a marketplace analysis that would inform the brand direction, website and marketing. We strengthened the brand's identity and positioning that showcased the company's unique culture, created a messaging framework that articulated their service values and developed a new customer-centric website.
Our ongoing efforts went into developing quality content built upon strategy, focusing on SEO and engagement on digital channels to build awareness and brand credibility to support the business and other tactics used for lead generation.
The content development process for case studies was a truly collaborative project. We dove deep into complex projects with their clients and turned this information into success stories that articulate the technical and business value that Intelygenz’s marketing and sales team can use to build trust and credibility with leads and convert.
Alongside our always-on activity and content creation efforts over the course of two years, we tested multiple tactics to maximise learnings and refine our data-driven strategy.
Rolling out a full SEO plan to improve organic search visibility
We completed a comprehensive SEO audit to diagnose technical issues that might be causing low search visibility.
With several low-quality backlinks site-wide that were suppressing Intelygenz’s credibility and authority signals for search, we disavowed them to quickly improve the brand’s visibility.
We concentrated backlinking efforts on their conversion-focussed pages, driving qualified leads directly from discovery to sales – increasing online lead generation.
We found an opportunity to make the brand strong with business-related keyword ranking. To achieve this, we discovered their niche to lead the market by repositioning their proposition around ‘A.I. enabled process automation’.
Running campaigns to address various marketing priorities
-
A lead generation campaign, ‘A.I. for Retail. Decoded’, targeting the retail sector.
-
An ABM campaign on LinkedIn to engage with hyper-targeted accounts.
-
A PR campaign to promote Intelygenz’s nomination as industry innovator.
-
A social campaign to drive awareness of Intelygenz’s new value proposition.
Continuously testing multiple approaches
We produced creative concepts, content themes and formats for LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and their blog.
We explored various routes for content distribution including Medium and backlinking.
Our ‘test fast, learn fast’ approach let us identify LinkedIn as the biggest opportunity, and focused our efforts on activity that drove the highest return for marketing and sales, and SEO was a prime weapon to improve ranking further and gain market share in the industry.
We developed 18 case studies to support the sales team, publishing them to the website to help drive conversion and entice new business.
Our continuous SEO efforts, tailored blog and website content, leveraged partnerships with influential industry leaders.
Query monitoring saw a shift in ranking for terms like ‘Automated ticket resolution’ and ‘Ticket resolution’. Their position on the SERPs improved by 77% since early 2020, to 6th position on average globally – placing Intelygenz as a highly skilled industry leader.
Producing first-time collateral
Intelygenz grew a number of lead generation offers to increase the website’s conversion rate.
