B2B Buying Disconnect: Are You Targeting the Right Set of Customers?
To date, Uberflip has added more than 1,000 B2B companies to its customer roster, including Stantec, Schneider Electric, MongoDB, and Pivotal Software.
At the time of this significant funding announcement, Yoav Schwartz, Uberflip’s Co-Founder and CEO, said, “While 80 percent of consumers are more likely to do business with a brand that offers personalized experiences, less than 10 percent of marketers believe they are effective at personalization (Source).”
Yoav mentioned, “Uberflip’s new funding validates our vision and demonstrates excitement around the category of content experience which we’ve worked so hard to create.”
Yoav added, “This investment will be used to support ongoing product development aimed at enabling personalization, increasing engagement, and accelerating audiences along the buyer journey.”
These product innovations include the recent announcement of Uberflip AI and Site Engager that leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver personalized content experiences on top of the Uberflip core marketing platform.
Uberflip is uniquely positioned to capitalize on some of the biggest marketing trends today such as inbound marketing, ABM (account-based marketing), personalization, AI, and sales & marketing alignment. Innovative marketing and sales teams are using Uberflip to power personalized content experiences throughout the end-to-end customer journey.
– Stantec is using Uberflip to create engaging content experiences to accelerate lead generation.
– Snowflake Computing is using Uberflip to power their ABM strategy by creating scalable, tailored content experiences for target accounts.
– Pivotal Software’s sales team uses Uberflip to increase response rates by creating personalized content experiences to fuel meaningful conversations.
A New Era in Marketing: Content Experience
While investments in content marketing continue to grow, research from SiriusDecisions finds 60-70 percent of all content produced by B2B marketing departments sits unused.
According to Schwartz, “Marketers have traditionally limited their definition of content marketing to creating content assets. Uberflip is in a unique position to help them turn standalone content assets into personalized content experiences in a way that builds engagement and revenue.”
Randy Frisch, Uberflip Co-Founder, President and CMO, said, “Marketing strategies like ABM, Personalization and Sales Enablement all hold incredible opportunity and promise, but as they gain prominence, marketing leaders are left struggling to adopt and integrate them in a cohesive way.”
Randy added, “These new go to market strategies create the perfect storm for Uberflip—helping marketers increase engagement and accelerate revenue by delivering personalized content experiences at scale.”
