The enterprise filter
Director and above Named functions 5,000+ employees Qualified fit
The target was narrow. Directors and above, in named functions, at companies with 5,000+ employees and 50+ person marketing teams. CIENCE researched each account so outreach reached only prospects who fit.

Why CIENCE

Wrike hired CIENCE to reinforce a campaign strategy that was already in place. The CIENCE-tific approach to outbound sales made the process easy. At its most essential, CIENCE stepped in to take care of all the heavy lifting involved with lead generation, enrichment, and top-of-funnel activities.

"I never had to check in with them to see why something hadn't been done; they were just on top of things. You could explain something one time, and they had it. It was easier to work with them than almost anybody that I've worked with in this capacity elsewhere," Field Marketing Manager, Wrike.

Explain once
Explained once No check-in needed Done
The relationship needed no oversight. Explain a task one time and it was handled, so the field marketing team could stop checking in and stay on their own work.
