Injecting innovation into a predictable market.
An early entrant in a maturing outsourcing market realized it was falling behind its competition. It needed to create a compelling reason why outsourcing customers would want to buy its services over more than four dozen competitors.
Challenges:
- Undifferentiated offering
- No unique value proposition to hook buyers
- Competition grabbing share of voice in market
Scanlon.Louis Approach:
We started by taking a very deep dive into the customer's market, interviewing more than a dozen customers, prospects and non-customers. After leading a day-long leadership team session, Scanlon.Louis developed a customer-centric go-to-market plan that established a distinctive position in the market. After introducing the plan to the business, we led several internal teams in the implementation of the program -- including multiple digital marketing programs -- before transitioning operations to customer teams.
Impact:
- Cemented business as Top 3 player, according to several leading analysts
- Energized sales and account teams
- Created dynamic messaging program for the company to differentiate it in the market
- Created compelling conversations with the firm's customers and prospects that led to the development of significant new business opportunities
