The success story of our Account Based Marketing Strategy for agri-tech scale-up Intelligent Growth Solutions. The results speak for themselves:
To convert prospects into loyal advocates, it takes your whole marketing, sales and product team to actively listen and collaborate to serve the right content and value, at the right time.Innovative vertical farming pioneers Intelligent Growth Solutions (IGS) approached us with this very challenge, appointing us to lead EU go-to-market expansion and help improve sales and marketing alignment.The IGS team had great potential, including strong leadership and the proactive support of board members. They had raised significant series B funding, had a positive revenue to funding ratio, and were fortunate to be in the position of having too many potential leads. A large number of leads could be seen as a positive, but IGS were keen to narrow their focus to ensure they are engaging with the right customers, and reducing the amount of time, energy, and money spent on qualifying/chasing too many leads.There was a lack of alignment between the sales and marketing teams, right down to a lack of shared language and understanding of process.

“It became very evident early in the interview process that not only did Zebra Growth have the skills and knowledge we were looking for but that they really cared about the business.
They are the right cultural fit for us. We are a very fast-growing business striving to do great things in the world. Zebra Growth fit with how we want to do business and how we want to interact with people and build relationships.
The team at Zebra Growth will work with us to build a comprehensive account-based marketing strategy. Drawing on their experience in the market, Zebra Growth will then help execute that strategy in Europe, while providing support to allow it to be executed elsewhere in the world.”
“We’re facing a huge food crisis around the world and we are honoured to be partnering with IGS to help them scale up effectively to make the biggest impact possible in food systems change.
There are billions of people unable to eat properly, without access to healthy fresh produce and that is getting worse as the population grows. The effect of food on climate change is a big issue which is going to become a catastrophic problem and we are very proud to be playing our part in helping IGS tackle that situation.
We combine our Growth Hacking expertise with social impact objectives and our purpose is to bridge the gap between social impact and the next generation of conscious leaders like IGS, who are focused on the planet and its people.”
