Messaging strategy for sales-led B2B software companies

When pipeline stalls, everyone blames marketing. Usually the real problem is messaging.

We figure out how your buyers think and decide, find the messaging that lands, and build the messaging strategy your marketing and sales teams actually want to use.

Get in touch

Most messaging breaks in the same three places.

1. Who you're talking to.

Without a clear understanding of how your buyers actually speak, think and decide, messaging gets written for the idealized buyer (not the real one). As a result, every marketing and sales asset is slightly off.

2. What you're saying to them.

When key messages reflect how your team thinks about value instead of how your buyers experience value, marketing and sales end up telling different stories. This is bad because it's confusing for prospects. (Confused prospects don’t buy.)

3. How you're saying it.

If your brand sounds like every other company in your category, AI just made that problem much, much worse. The brands pulling away are sharing their message in ways that are differentiated from their competitors.

When your messaging works...

Your messaging easily cuts through the noise (even if you're in a crowded market).

Your best-fit buyers quickly understand why your product is right for them.

Your team tells the same story, from first touch to onboarding.

“I have worked with Carolyn’s team on multiple projects now. So easy to communicate with and a great translator between what we’re saying and what we mean: even when we’re not sure.”
