Client story
Early-stage US Payments Startup
Before
When this US-based early-stage payments startup signed up for APMS's accelerator programme, it faced significant challenges in its marketing approach. With a basic, unprofessional and inconsistent web presence, the company struggled to articulate its value proposition. Their lack of a clear distribution strategy was hindering their ability to generate demand and build brand awareness.
After
After completing the sprint, the company witnessed a transformative change in its marketing strategy in four key areas:
-
A cohesive brand experience: APMS delivered a strong, cohesive brand strategy that accurately represented the company's vision and values.
-
Professional web presence: The company website was revamped elevating the startup's online image, and making it more appealing and professional to its target audience.
-
A clear value proposition: After completing a series of interviews with key business stakeholders, APMS worked closely with the company's management team to come up with a clearly defined value proposition that effectively communicated its unique offerings to the market.
-
Sales enablement: One of the key improvement areas identified during the audit stage was sales enablement, so a new suite of marketing materials was developed that streamlined the startup’s approach to demand generation and capture.
