Smart Manufacturing Analytics Solutions
(Industry 4.0)
Being a startup with a limited budget and trying to raise more investment and generate more business opportunities, Matics hired SAGE experts to serve as their in-house marketing team and provide full-stack marketing services, from branding, strategy, and positioning to lead generation, nurturing and sales enablement. SAGE constantly worked to better define and sharpen Matics’ value proposition to distinguish the company from numerous Industry 4.0 competitors. In just a few months the SAGE team launched a brand new Matics website with a unique look and feel, driving traffic through SEO-optimized content; established a proper CRM and marketing automation system in Hubspot, generated an array of Sales and Marketing materials, launched numerous PPC and Outreach campaigns and formed strategic partnerships with relevant vendors and industry partners. SAGE also helped improve the company’s Sales and SDR processes and supported Matics in navigating through a very challenging time when the COVID-19 crisis led to severe disruptions and budget cuts.
