HGI’s VC says “We’ve Seen 100% Revenue Growth YoY”

HGI Industries (HGI) is a leading manufacturer and installer of custom air purifier systems in the United States. Its newly appointed CEO, Jeff, wanted predictable revenue growth year over year (YoY).

About

Jeff’s plans included launching a new brand, new products and a new product line to expand its market share. Even though the business is already focusing on large-scale projects in buildings, hotels, and hospitals, Jeff felt the company’s marketing was missing a lot of opportunities. Besides, as a CEO reporting to the board, HGI had little visibility into lead sources, lead quality, or customer ROI.

 

Challenge

HGI wanted to experience predictable revenue growth in 2019 with an effective marketing framework based on performance marketing. The CEO was looking to establish an effective strategic marketing plan with an integrated approach to marketing. The strategy is to include print, online and digital marketing channels to generate qualified leads and improve their visibility among the right customers.

“We were struggling to find the right marketing resource to align the company’s brand message, create storytelling content that resonates with our key audiences, and develop added-value marketing materials to support the sales team in closing deals faster” said Jeff.

 

    Solution

    FCMO began by hosting a Half-Day Strategy Session to understand HGI’s goals and marketing objectives. FCMO analyzed the current strategies, and suggested strategies and tactics that would yield ROI-driven results.
