We chatted with Luke McCormack, Director & Head of Sales at Influx for this case study.

Sales Process before engaging GrowthGenius

Prior to engaging GrowthGenius, 100% of all Influx leads were coming through inbound channels — primarily content marketing and AdWords. In addition, 50 to 60 percent of Luke’s week was spent on talking to prospects, 20 percent on internal meetings and 20 to 30 percent on account management.

Luke tried a number of things to drive outbound lead generation but to no avail. At first he hired agents to do the prospecting but they lacked the expertise.

He then hired a well-known copywriter who might have the skills but it wasn’t the right fit and they didn’t reach the targets they wanted. Finally, he looked at his internal team but it was too time consuming and exhausted operational bandwidth. That’s when he looked at GrowthGenius as a potential option.

Why GrowthGenius?

“I wanted a sustainable way of generating pipeline without having to hire a rep or rely exclusively on marketing dollars. GrowthGenius has been a great solution for us.”
