The Challenge

What We Were Up Against.

The client was a B2B SaaS company with a strong product but a broken demand generation engine. Marketing was generating volume but not quality — sales was spending most of their time on leads that would never close. Pipeline was stagnant and the cost per opportunity was climbing.

They needed a senior strategist who could align marketing and sales, build a proper ABM program, and create a pipeline that sales actually wanted to work.


The Approach

How We Built It.

Leslie started with a full funnel audit — mapping every touchpoint from first impression to closed deal. The gaps were clear: no ICP definition, no lead scoring, and marketing and sales operating in silos.

  • ICP definition and target account list development
  • Lead scoring model built with sales input and CRM data
  • Account-based marketing campaigns across LinkedIn and email
  • Content program mapped to buying committee roles
  • Sales and marketing SLA — shared definitions, handoff process
  • Intent data integration to prioritize in-market accounts
  • Nurture sequences for early-stage and late-stage pipeline
  • Full-funnel attribution model built in HubSpot
The Results

What It Delivered.

In 6 months, qualified pipeline increased by 220%. Qualified lead volume grew 4x while lead-to-opportunity rate improved 68%. Sales cycle shortened by 3 weeks on average. Total marketing ROI reached 2.1x with full attribution visibility for the first time.
