As the world’s leading group purchasing organization (GPO) in mid-market manufacturing, Prime Advantage facilitates mutually beneficial relationships between its members and top-performing endorsed suppliers.
By leveraging the spending of the entire membership, Prime Advantage negotiates volume-based savings programs with its supply base that drive down costs for members and increase market share for suppliers.
Seeking exponential growth, Prime Advantage had a goal to significantly increase its brand awareness and scale its corporate membership and supplier base. To accomplish this, Prime Advantage retained the services of SyncShow to develop a comprehensive marketing program geared to drive member and supplier engagement.
Through the relationship, SyncShow guided Prime Advantage through an evolutionary process geared to transform the organization’s sales and marketing teams into one integrated department, complete with integrated reporting, CRM usage and marketing automation.
The result for Prime Advantage was significantly improved brand awareness, increased market share and eventually an acquisition by the world’s largest public-sector GPO, OMNIA Partners.
Prime Advantage came to SyncShow with a set of challenging goals:
Prime Advantage members consist of a diverse group of companies from related manufacturing sectors throughout the United States and Canada. With such a wide geographic range and diverse target market, the problem was finding out how to capture this audience’s attention and drive it to one online location—Prime Advantage’s website (and, ultimately, to the company’s sales team).
Before delivering a set of detailed recommendations, SyncShow sat down with all Prime Advantage decision-makers for two full-day brainstorm sessions. These sessions were each the first step in two trademarked, strategic processes offered by SyncShow:
SaleSync™: A process that helps to recalibrate and realign marketing and sales teams, ensuring our clients can achieve their goals by providing the right people with the right information at the right time.
WebSync™: A process that helps ensure a client’s online web presence accurately communicates its brand and is optimized to capture sales qualified leads. Both of these strategic, in-depth processes allowed SyncShow to deliver a detailed digital marketing lead generation plan that addressed Prime Advantage’s exact needs.
With SyncShow’s strategic guidance, Prime Advantage saw the following results within one year:
