The Challenge: Outdated Tactics and Stagnant Growth for a Mature SaaS Player
A mature B2B SaaS company, a long-standing provider of IT management solutions, found itself in a precarious position. Despite a robust and reliable product, their sales growth had become stagnant. Their traditional Go-To-Market (GTM) tactics were no longer effective in a rapidly evolving market, and they struggled to identify and penetrate new market segments. Without predictive insights to guide their sales and marketing efforts, they were losing ground to more agile competitors.
The Solution: Uncovering New Opportunities with AI and Precision Outbound (Stack, Pipe, & Close with Optional Embedded SDRs)
Angmars partnered with the client to inject new life into their sales engine, leveraging our Stack, Pipe, and Close services.
Stack: Overhauling GTM Tech with Predictive AI
We began by overhauling their GTM tech infrastructure with advanced AI capabilities. This involved implementing an AI-powered market intelligence platform that analyzed vast datasets to identify underserved niches and emerging trends within their industry. This new Stack provided predictive insights into ideal customer profiles for these new segments, along with their specific pain points and preferred communication channels, effectively uncovering previously hidden opportunities.
Pipe: Targeted Outbound for New Market Penetration
Armed with the granular insights from the Stack, our Pipe service launched highly targeted outbound campaigns. These campaigns were specifically designed to penetrate the newly identified market segments, utilizing AI-generated insights for hyper-personalized messaging and prospect engagement. This precision approach ensured that every outreach was relevant and compelling to the new target audience. An embedded SDR team was deployed to execute the targeted outbound campaigns and qualify leads in these new segments, ensuring efficient and effective market entry.
Close: Empowering Sales for New Frontiers
To ensure the sales team could effectively capitalize on these new opportunities, our Close service provided specialized training and tailored playbooks. This equipped their sales representatives with the knowledge and strategies needed to effectively engage and close deals within these unfamiliar, high-potential market contexts.
The Results: New Market Penetration and Renewed Growth
