Since I began using BenchmarkONE almost two years ago, the CRM and a revised marketing strategy have helped me increase enrollment in the program by nearly 60% over the previous year!
I am the Director of the University at Albany’s executive Weekend MBA Program and one of my big marketing challenges, which my previous CRM was unable to address, was being able to consistently deliver the right information to the right person at the right time. Now, with BenchmarkONE, I can create campaigns that consistently deliver messages of value to my prospects. And, with lead scoring, I’m notified when I need to reach out to certain people sooner rather than later, compelling me to “strike while the iron is hot!”
The ability to create online forms and to have information in those forms automatically populated into BenchmarkONE records upon submission. Being able to automate tasks while retaining the personal, timely touch! And being able to track just about anything that is important, i.e., e-mail performance, online form submissions, visits to web pages, you name it!
My communication with prospects, as well as students and alumni, had become random and inconsistent. I’m now able to stay in meaningful touch with my stakeholders, without anyone falling between the cracks. Having BenchmarkONE’s online forms automatically populating records and triggering campaigns and other tasks have saved me considerable time in having to manually enter someone’s information
The hardest part about answering this question is limiting it to one reason! There are a few top reasons … it is packed with features that you would need to pay extra for with other CRMS; it’s intuitive to learn, eliminating any sharp learning curves; and timely and courteous customer service, to name but a few!
