    To close the revenue and pipeline gap

    The challenge

    • Growth depended on volume: more outreach, more lists and more touches.
    • Marketing, sales and revenue operations did not share one measure of progress.

    What we did

    • Signal-led targeting: replaced broad outreach with segmentation and account priorities informed by customer signals.
    • Seller execution: connected customer engagement to seller alerts, CRM follow-up and lifecycle programs.
    • Revenue operations: built shared measurement and ownership across marketing and sales.

    Outcome

    • The firm grew more than 40% a year while sending far less outreach.
    • The revenue and pipeline gap closed in five months.
    • Marketing and sales ran on one growth operating model, from first signal to seller follow-up.
