From our first exchange they have been very responsive. They listen carefully to our needs and importantly they deliver against our requirements. They are agile, flexible and come to the table with new ideas. We at Siemens see them as a strategic partner at this stage and I hope we continue to work productively in to the future.

Metadata is well suited when you have a really large ad budget (>50k per month at least). This is because the power of metadata lies in the ability to quickly set up and run a large number of experiments (combinations of channel, audience, creative, and conversion assets). To evaluate these variations, all of them need a large number of impressions, clicks, and conversions to be statistically relevant. If your budget is smaller, you will either have a very small number of experiments (not fully utilizing the power of metadata), or your experiments will not have enough clicks to make informed decisions. We had expected a better explanation of this from metadata before signing up.

Pros
  • Tracking/monitoring leads is super easy and in-depth through their Demand Accelerator portal.
  • Customer experience and support is top tier. The team is always trying to understand how they can best support us and our goals.
  • Providing high-quality leads that are aligned with our target personas.

  • Best paid ops tool I've ever used (and I've used a lot): we can launch a new LinkedIn & Facebook campaign in minutes.
  • Lead gen ops: no more dealing with broken zapier zaps, we are able to automate pushing native lead gen leads directly to our CRM.
  • Attribution: see influenced & triggered opportunities/CW deals
  • Multivariate testing: Metadata scales audience, ad, creative testing so you learn what performs much faster than manual process

Cons
  • I think providing a quarterly highlights document would be particularly helpful without asking. We ask every quarter and it creates a bit of a bottleneck for us.
  • Communication via email can get exhausting. Can we explore having a joint Slack channel for collaboration?

  • It was difficult to set goals on the individual campaign level vs. all ad campaigns
  • It seems like the automation in-platform is better than what Metadata provides so you can have better results running ads natively.
  • They have some work to do to improve the user experience for running experiments because it is one of their best features but it's hard to use.

Usability
INFUSE was able to get our campaigns up and running, allowing us the ability to migrate qualified leads down to our sales team. INFUSE also went a step above, by providing call scripts and prescribed touchpoints along the qualifing journey, allowing our sales teams more time to schedule follow-up meetings and create opportunities that generated potential review.

INFUSE has always been very responsive. I appreciate the check ins once campaigns are live, to discuss results and see where we could make adjustments. I haven't used their Demand Gen experts yet but I love that that's available to optimize your programs.

Alternatives Considered
We are working with many content syndication and BANT lead gen companies. INFUSE is one of the top vendors we have seen some great success with. The targeting is all on point and accurate, the content and assets they help us create are all in line with our brand guidelines, and the lead quality is one of the best out of all of our vendors.

These aren't apples-to-apples comparisons: I used Triblio at a previous company. Triblio is primarily for ABM display and you can have smaller audience pools (to the company level). Metadata has a display ad component that I am not currently licensed for. Triblio has added ABM features like personalized landing pages and resource hubs specific to target companies which have the potential to be really effective. I evaluated Influ2. They seem to be really great at targeting a person level across channels. So you can run a campaign to an audience as small as 1-5 people at a specific company using various targeting methods including email upload. Metadata can't get this granular.

Return on Investment
  • INFUSEmedia significantly increased our overall lead volume (ie able to produce 5000 leads/month when other channels were struggling to generate more then a few hundred) at far more efficient CPLs (Cost-Per-Lead)
  • Our clients have given positive feedback on lead quality and wrap reports that INFUSEmedia has provided to our team had provided further insight into the companies, job levels, etc. that our leads are tied to, further validating their quality and alignment with our desired targeting

  • Huge decrease in CPLs, CPMQL and Cost Per Opportunity
  • Big improvement in MQL to SQL rates
  • 90%+ of our leads from paid social now have valid business emails, before it was like 30%
  • Saving us hundreds of hours over the course of the next year doing daily manual optimization and budget management tasks for us so we can focus on strategy and testing new things
