What was your greatest business or sales & marketing challenge(s) before using BenchmarkONE?

We struggled defining our ideal market and understanding the correct segments that would become my best customers.

What solutions/tactics did you try before you started using BenchmarkONE? What were the results?

I was using an email marketing newsletter software with little to no results. We had very little support – actually almost NO support, which is important to me as a small business… so I cancelled. Lindsey and the team at BenchmarkONE have been tremendous in helping me get up and running fast and are extremely patient & knowledgeable.

How has BenchmarkONE specifically addressed your challenges?

As you can imagine I am always away from my business in speaking engagements and leading people. Frankly, it can be a challenge to stay connected and in front of my clients. BenchmarkONE has been vital for reconnecting with my large client base and enables me to stay connected ongoing by sending more personalized communications, all automatically.

How quickly did you start seeing results?

It was fast.  Within 1 week of my 1st automated campaign… several clients were calling happy to hear from me.  I have already closed 3 contracts from just the 1st campaign, and have more on the way.

What specific problems has BenchmarkONE addressed that other small businesses might be able to relate to?

The balancing act of growing a small business and making sure you are able to retain and make your client base happy can be a challenge. By automating communications with my clients BenchmarkONE allows me to do what I love: leading, speaking and making a difference.

What is the single biggest reason you would recommend/why you love BenchmarkONE?

BenchmarkONE is easy of use and I can ‘turn it on and let it go’…If I do have a question, I love that I can reach out to Lindsey and she will always be there to help.
