Yasin’s work has also been recognized for excellence in publications such as INC, MSNBC, Huffington Post, VentureBeat, ReadWriteWeb, and Buzzfeed.
PERQ’s marketing team, led by Yasin, has created and deployed an innovative and intensive B2B lead generation email marketing program over the last two years with a very specific goal: to create measurable growth of software sales (of the company’s FATWIN Web Engagement Platform) through pre-qualified leads and MQLs, generated for his sales team. The emails created for the “Marketing Qualified Leads” campaign were highly automated, designed to look and feel like personal email communications from individual sales consultants, and focused on delivering meaningful messaging specific to each lead. These emails, although automatic, directly address the prospects’ individual needs, while reflecting exactly where that prospect is in the sales funnel. Yasin built 30-day campaigns to take each sales prospect through a story arc specifically relevant to that prospect’s situation – and to the prospect’s current level of engagement with the email campaign.
In addition to the segmentation and story arcs, Yasin customizes the automated emails to come from an individual salesperson (versus a generic marketing address). And, the emails are completely trackable and provide real-time data to the sales force. The personal look/feel gave the emails a 15-20% boost versus graphic-led emails. The results of Yasin’s Marketing Qualified Leads campaign include:
- 50% decrease in number of calls needed to set a product demo;
- For every dollar the marketing team spends, the company is reaping $6 in revenue;
- 44% more sales increase versus cold calls;
- 300% increase in revenue share; and
- 866% revenue increase on MQLs from January to June 2017.
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1506525638724{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Can you share any particular achievements you are most proud of in your current role?
PERQ has been around for 15 years, and we’ve announced a new SaaS part of the business which is two years old. I’ve been focusing so hard on the growth of the SaaS business, but I’m also responsible for product dev and innovation growth in our legacy business. My team has not only been keeping that running, we’ve been rapidly growing that side of the business. I’m truly proud of how productive we’ve been in this type of environment.
One thing that makes us unique is that we switched to agile marketing a while ago and it has allowed us to get a great understanding of what our stakeholders needed, what needs to be done to meet those needs, and also create processes to have continuous back and forth throughout the customer experience. It’s helped tie us into product development, the sales team and as well internally within the marketing team.
Do you feel like B2B marketing needs to shake things up a bit to avoid being boring and dry and how have you tried to address this?
Innovation is really important to break through the clutter – millions of companies out there – and be different in a sea of companies with the same offers/mentality. Innovation allows you to carve out your own space and connect with prospects in real ways. For example, in our email marketing campaigns, we stay away from the bells and whistles. We found that if we go back to text evites, in natural language, that’s what people respond, increase response rates by 15% after a year of implementation. Another example, we do a lot of trade shows now. We’re being true to ourselves that we’re representing our personalities and we’re not cookie cutter. Auto and real estate are cookie cutter. We’re doing cocktail parties where we hire actors to play zombies as bartenders and doormen. Avg. $11/$1 dollars spent oftentimes after 30 days.
What does the future have in store for your efforts? Anything interesting planned?
We’re running $25 million in revenue that we have to hold onto. However, maintaining that means we also have to be careful about choosing what verticals to target — automotive to furniture retail and so on, for example. More verticals equals more complexity for executing game plans and what procedures look like. My team by itself is made up of eight people and they’ve only been with us for six months or less. Our challenge is to continue to pour fuel on the flames of growth and make sure we’re using agile methodology to as people join our team, we’re creating an environment where they quickly integrate and start driving results as individuals and as part of the team.

His constant dedication to analyzing customer data, leveraging relational data and an ongoing cycle of A/B testing to validate his assumptions has set him apart as a B2B innovator.
Zoro approaches their personalization strategy by focusing on three types of end consumers – the Ready Buyer, the Return Customer and the New Prospect. The Kibo Real-Time Individualization solution enables the company to deploy machine learning and big data into its personalization strategy, allowing for a unique experience tailored for every site visitor. For example, for the Ready Buyer, Zoro uses Kibo’s “Buy it Again” strategy on the homepage to remind the consumer of items they may need to repurchase. Additionally, they want to be sure the purchase path is as frictionless as possible, so they avoid displaying alternative products in the cart. For the Return Customer, the company uses a “Recently Viewed” strategy to encourage the return customer to pick up where they left off. They also dynamically personalize category recommendations so only the most relevant products are displayed to the user. For the New Prospect, Zoro relies heavily on understanding the current context of the customer – their channel of origin, keywords that landed them on the site and real-time browse patterns. From there, the company can segment those new prospects and offer the most individualized product recommendations and promotions.
Results of Zoro’s efforts include:
- 15%-20% engagement in recommendations, which continues to climb;
- 8%-10% increase in incremental revenue per month;
- 1%-2% conversion lift;
- 3x pages viewed per session; and
- 4x time spent on the site.
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1506711486163{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]How have you helped try to foster a culture of innovation within your team and organization?
Transparency. We are an outspoken team that is comfortable voicing our opinions, regardless of our role or who we’re interacting with. Innovation comes from those who have the freedom to think beyond their daily responsibilities and assert their ideas. We encourage this behavior within our team and it advances us as an organization.
Why do you think innovation is important in today’s B2B marketing landscape? Do you see a need for traditional approaches to be transformed?
Everyone is competing for the same slice of pie. Innovation is essential to enable us to differentiate from the competition and be unique with our customers. There’s always a better mouse trap. Traditional approaches will transform; the question is whether you will help lead/define that transformation or follow suit and lag the competition.
What does the future have in store for your efforts? Anything interesting planned?
Tons of stuff! We have redefined our PLA experience and are working to test different page layouts in one of our most successful channels. We are also creating a variant experience on our site to improve customer engagement and drive incremental dollars. Finally, we’re leveraging artificial intelligence to curate unique product descriptions in a scalable fashion.
