The company engaged NBS while it was in stealth mode to make sure its launch would set the tone for a promising future. The stealth-mode startup needed to make the right strategic messaging and resource decisions and make these choices quickly.

 

The company spent months educating the market in preparation for its launch about the need for real-time response systems to customer comments. When it was time for the launch, analysts, media and customers already understood the value of solving social customer care at scale and what Social Dynamx brought to the table. Leading industry analysts unanimously supported Social Dynamx’s approach.

Results:

“New Business Strategies helped us understand who we were, who our customers should be and where we fit into the ecosystem,” said Jan Ryan, President and Co-Founder. “We were able to achieve everything we could have expected, while staying within our budget, because of the early planning we did with New Business Strategies.

 

Social Dynamx continued to use the methodology it learned from New Business Strategies as part of its ongoing process for developing messaging, decision-making, and managing media announcements.

 

“New Business Strategies has a great repeatable methodology,” said Ryan. “We plan to leverage their approach to messaging for a long time.”
