Client Overview

The Situation

A growing SaaS startup was losing leads to slow manual follow-up. We implemented AI chatbots, automated lead scoring, and a unified analytics dashboard that transformed their sales response time and reporting clarity.

The Problem

Inbound leads from the website and content marketing were sitting unanswered for hours, and the founder had no clear dashboard showing which channels were actually driving signups versus just traffic.

Our Strategy

We deployed an AI chatbot for instant qualification and scheduling, built automated lead scoring and routing into their CRM, and consolidated GA4, ad platforms, and CRM data into a single Looker Studio dashboard.

Implementation

  • AI chatbot deployment for instant lead qualification and meeting booking
  • Automated lead scoring and CRM routing workflow build
  • GA4 and Google Tag Manager implementation with full event tracking
  • Unified Looker Studio dashboard combining marketing and CRM data
  • SEO content strategy targeting bottom-of-funnel, high-intent keywords
