CMS Distribution

"Brad came into CMS with a bunch of fresh ideas of how to approach Sales and Business Development teams. His enthusiasm and never say die attitude to getting the best marketing support to all corners of the business was great to see. A true 'Noisy' Marketeer if I ever have seen one"


Steve Yeoland - BDM

The Connection

CMS distribution, a technology company that has been connecting with customers for over 30 years, had a problem.


Although it was financially healthy and had excellent customers and clients, its old fashioned marketing ways were being left behind by growing competitors in the same space.


Introduced via networking partners, bradchuck was hired on a 6-month contract to produce a new Marketing Strategy and Business Growth concept.  This is the story. 

The Groundwork

As with all our clients, we start with the 3 fundamental questions of marketing to ascertain what projects needed to be worked on and what must take priority to help re-build the marketing effort.  We focused on 7 key points.

30 years of data is certainly going to have many profiles that are out of date and simply not worth the effort of marketing and promoting any messages too.  A full data cleanse was needed and provided

NAS Solutions Campaign

"A well thought, constructive and imaginative campaign that adhered to multiple customers and clients and offered a 2-way promotional message.  By partnering with key vendors, a city and an enterprise concept, the result was an outstanding campaign that delivered on returns"

CRN Sales and Marketing Awards 2020


The Brief


What is NAS Solutions?

Before we could begin, we had to understand what the solution was so we can pinpoint a dedicated marketing idea.  A NAS (Network Attached Storage) device is a storage device connected to a network, meaning it was a join solution that had many implications for many customers and clients in the B2B space


The Setup Work


Building the Vendor Relationship

By working with 5 vendors, we needed to be agnostic in our approach and to outline the ROI expected from a drastically different campaign.  This is where our experience and leadership mattered


Creating the Sales Message

With any marketing campaign we manage, must have a hidden or publically seen sales message that operates as the key instrument behind the marketing effort.  We outlined the importance of NAS solutions for business 


Building the Marketing Concept

With the research, analysis and sales understanding in place, we could design the marketing and PR concept that delivered returns for all invested vendors while opening new avenues and opportunities for business transactions 


The Solution


The Golden Ticket Incentive

Once we understood the concept of the service that needed promotion, we could liaise with the 5 key vendors and the distributor enterprise team to create a partnership that offered a true reseller incentive. 

The decision was made to make this incentive like nothing before. The Golden Ticket was born


"The Golden Ticket, in support from our NAS Solution partners in Seagate, Toshiba, Western Digital, QNAP and Synology, is your chance to experience Dubai first hand and learn more about how NAS solutions play a key role in how a ‘smart city’ operates"


By working with the Executive Council of Dubai, we were able to create an experience that showed how NAS solutions physically work in the Smart City of the future.  The NAS Solutions team were offering lucky customers the opportunity to come and see the ‘City of Gold’ for themselves with a once in a lifetime trip to Dubai. 


The Hook

Of course, visiting Dubai on a 5 star weekend holiday does not come cheap - so the chance to go had to help return a large ROI for the key vendors.  So we created a completion based on a points scoring system.

Resellers can build scores based on the introduction they give to their customers in regards to the NAS solutions offer.  This was a simple process that pushed the notion that the more they supported the solution, the points they built up.


Understanding the Solution 

For the distributer CMS and the key vendors, the solution was key.  This had to be a central point of the marketing message to make customers understand how relevant storage solutions for their business was.  This was achieved by a serious of webinars, social teasers, email promotion and a direct mail indication in a golden ticket envelope.


The Result

 

New Business

Over 1,000 new business enquiries leading to 105 new sales for the NAS solutions Enterprise team 


500 + Competition Entries

507 points scoring entries into the competition to win a trip to Dubai 


Industry Recognition

A nomination at the CRN Sales and MArketing awards for the best distribution B2B marketing campaign

Clearer and more Concise Vision of the Future

Our policy is simple.  Define the attributes and goals of the business by understanding their website, their sales options and the feedback from customer service.  By researching these 3 key areas, we ere able to establish a 7-step plan that was engineered to support the whole company.


Establishing a plan is only the first step - getting this plan heard by the board and then agreed upon was the true goal of our mission.  To achieve this, we had to be programmatic in our approach and naturally,m source our financial decisions for each step.


No easy task, but with our in-depth knowledge, understanding and the huge pool of networking partners, we could create a plan that everyone could stick too.


Now, with a new website on the way, invigorated marketing team with new training, skills and ROI tools, a cleansed data list and a long term future plan in place, the CMS sales team have seen a steady stream of leads, something they could only ever have dreamed of in the past, come soaring in onto their desktop each day via a new and fully automated marketing and sales process 


"Brad is a brilliant hardworking and innovative marketeer, his knowledge and enthusiasm to reach wider audiences across a large spectrum are sublime. Brad has great interpersonal skills and a natural flair for marketing into a variety of verticals"
