“Openprise enabled CBR to streamline and automate our lead flow process without building and maintaining expensive custom solutions.”
Kevin Hsieh, Director, Online Marketing and Marketing Operations
Lead onboarding operates ‘round the clock
The Armanino team knew that everything starts with clean data, so they began by standardizing key fields and distilling more than 1,000 NAICS industry values down to the most relevant 72 values. The team also used Openprise to derive key contact fields, like job level and job function, based on job title.The team then automated deduplication processes, including lead-to-lead, lead-to-contact, contact-to-contact, and account-to account.
The team then tackled the data enrichment process to improve the accuracy of contact and firmographic information. Armanino took advantage of multiple vendors from the Openprise Data Marketplace and used the Openprise platform to automate the process of pulling data from additional sources when the first one was unable to find a match.
Inactive leads are quickly moved to make room for new ones
After the nine-month window passes, marketing activities to those leads quickly diminish and eventually stop. By moving these inactive leads out of Marketo and into Openprise, the team at CBR frees up valuable space and time to concentrate on new leads.The results were immediately noticeable. The team reduced the size of the Marketo database and offloaded data-heavy processing workloads from Marketo into Openprise, while at the same time boosted campaign execution and other tasks’ speed within Marketo.
They also now have a way to preserve historical data to enrich returning leads who have future pregnancies
