Challenge
An international manufacturing company acquired
a smaller competitor, inheriting a yellowed list
of customers dating back to the 1930s. With current
contact profiles, the company could sell retrofit
solutions to this customer base - but the current
list contained out dated and incomplete company
and contact information.
Solution
ResponsePoint configured and populated a database
with available customer information. Then we built-out
each record with the correct address, phone, contact
name, and title information. Using outbound telemarketing,
our contact center team engaged senior engineers,
responsible for maintaining the equipment, in
a lead-developing dialogue. At the end of the
project, we delivered the updated database to
the client for use in future targeted communications.
Result
By developing a new, detailed database of previously
unknown customers, ResponsePoint helped the client
access an untapped market for retrofit upgrades
and add-ons. At a success rate of one per hour,
our team identified and pre-qualified sales opportunities
within the database and passed them to the client
to close. Qualified customers who were not ready
to buy retro-fit or add-on solutions were identified
as well. The complete database was delivered to
the client for ongoing email and direct mail market
development activities.
