Deep dives
Increasing Account Expansion
Hyper-focusing on expansion within big accounts is crucial. The strategy revolves around reaching out to regional players and subsidiaries to maximize growth potential. By leveraging existing relationships and credibility, opportunities for expansion are identified among numerous subsidiaries, aiming to establish a strong presence across various teams.
Double-Sided Onboarding Strategy
Implementing a double-sided onboarding approach ensures both customer and user teams understand SuperSid's philosophy and how to maximize the platform's potential. This labor-intensive process aims to enhance user engagement and loyalty by offering a tailored and intuitive onboarding experience, fostering deeper connections with the platform.
Incentivizing BDRs for Pipeline Creation
Aligning BDR incentives with pipeline creation rather than solely focusing on booked meetings enhances long-term revenue goals. The ABM approach, powered by custom intent signals, helps target potential accounts effectively. BDR teams under marketing are structured to drive pipeline generation and nurture relationships for sustainable growth.
What’s the top predictor of customer loyalty? It’s not service. It’s not even a great product (although that doesn’t hurt).
It’s an exceptional sales experience — and that only happens when you bring all of the elements of the customer experience together, from product to marketing. And when you align sales, marketing, customer experience, customer onboarding, and support against the customer journey, magic happens.
When Amrita Mathur took on the role of VP of Marketing at Superside, she prioritized intertwining product and marketing, aligning Superside’s approach to gaps they viewed in the market and their ICP. Much of the company’s success can be attributed to this cohesive approach, and other companies should follow suit.
