Cherwell Software partnered with TopRank Marketing to develop a comprehensive influencer program for the IT service management industry. A 24-page E-book called IT Service Management 2020 kicked off the campaign. The asset featured influencers’ opinions about the future of the ITSM industry, with insights falling into five trends. To generate pre-launch interest, Cherwell published a blog post listing the “25 IT Service Management Experts to Watch in 2017” and promoted it on social media.

Additional assets included a second blog announcing the release of the E-book, an infographic highlighting the top trends and a webinar hosted by two influencers. All 15 influencers shared the content on their social channels, generating downloads at a 240% higher than average gated asset download rate and 29% increase in web traffic to Cherwell.com from social. Additionally, leads from the campaign contributed to 22% of revenue pipeline for 2017.
