A family-owned manufacturing company with multiple strategic locations across North America had grown through acquiring several respected brands over decades. Their capabilities were strong, and customer relationships were solid. Yet externally, they appeared as a loose collection of smaller, independent operations. Sales teams were often tasked with explaining the
company’s identity and reliability for large-scale contracts.

As the business reached a pivotal point after several acquisitions, the family and their investors united around a clear vision: to achieve scalable growth, build a unified national brand, and develop a marketing system that clearly demonstrates its impact on revenue. This was a proactive effort to optimize their expanding portfolio rather than a reaction to outside pressure.

Recognizing the scale of their challenges and the ambition of their goals, the leadership team sought a strategic partner with proven expertise in driving marketing and sales transformations for complex businesses. After careful evaluation, they selected SyncShow for our comprehensive approach and track record of delivering measurable, repeatable results.

The Diagnostic: A Clear Picture of Where We Started

We began with the Great 8 Pillars (G8P) Diagnostic & Roadmap, SyncShow’s proprietary marketing and sales maturity model. This diagnostic evaluates marketing performance across eight critical pillars that high-growth companies need to master.

The assessment revealed the company was meeting only about one-fifth of the gold standards across these pillars.

Key gaps included:

  • A lack of a centralized marketing team
  • No cohesive messaging or defined buyer personas
  • An absent documented marketing plan.
  • Multiple underperforming websites
  • An underutilized technology stack.

Building the Growth Platform

Following the assessment, we executed a transformation aligned with the Great 8 Pillars. We:

  • Unified the Brand
  • Launched a Conversion-Focused Website
  • Implemented a CRM System
  • Created a Targeted Marketing Strategy
  • Aligned Sales and Marketing
