The Challenge

The ZEISS IQS marketing team was looking to generate more marketing qualified leads in 2021 and 2022 for its metrology solutions.

According to the Marketing Manager at ZEISS IQS, John Lewis, the challenge was to find a new source of quality individuals in key industries.

Another challenge was the need for a proactive provider, since the marketing team at ZEISS IQS had other projects to manage, including trade shows, webinars, and other marketing initiatives. Thus, it was critical to extend their existing team with an expert partner in demand generation, who could develop a new campaign with multiple touchpoints to generate qualified leads.

The Solution

Considering that time was of the essence, the INFUSE Client Success team structured a lead generation program with six clearly-defined email touchpoints for nurturing leads. ZEISS IQS received a campaign ready for approval, without the need for back-and-forths and multiple meetings.

“What I like about INFUSE is that we get consistent effort and feedback—‘Here’s what we’re working on, these are the next steps, here is the next set of leads that have come your way. Should we follow up?’ I don’t have to babysit it, I love that.”

John Lewis, Marketing Manager at ZEISS IQS

With the touches defined, ZEISS IQS simply had to share their materials and create a few content assets to fit into the lead nurturing structure, saving them precious time. The campaign also incorporated buyer intent data to assess sales readiness, as well as tracking of two lead touches based on interaction with assets distributed via content syndication.

Services offered to ZEISS IQS:

Email Lead Nurturing: Six-step program to nurture leads at multiple touchpoints, measure engagement, and assess sales readiness. The number of touches can vary depending on the complexity of the industry vertical and goals of the campaign.
Multi-Engagement Content Syndication with ITCurated: Our proprietary B2B publishing network with a global audience of 138+ million decision makers.
Intent-Driven Marketing: Measure leads’ buyer intent with insights from the INFUSE proprietary AI (Triple Threat Intent Signaling), which collects data from three independent sources on behavior.
Our dedicated Client Success Team: The first in the Demand Generation industry and winner of the Best in Biz and B2B Marketing Elevation Awards. Available across all time zones 24/5.

The Results

An initial campaign in 2021 generated 160 high-quality leads that met ZEISS IQS’ target criteria. From the success of the first partnership, another two campaigns were recently launched with INFUSE, generating 646 leads for the company.

“When I look at INFUSE, I’m looking at someone who’s got a resource already in play—they are already in contact with a number of customers. They built up their reputation and now I want to benefit from that.”

The campaign was followed up consistently by an INFUSE Client Success team, with performance reports, lead tracking, and updates on the next steps being taken for ZEISS IQS. This allowed the company to focus its attention on other projects, empowered with high-quality, "hands-off" lead generation.
