PROBLEMS FACED BY IT COMPANIES

The most common problems IT companies face

1Falling marketing performance metrics
Too high customer acquisition cost
Vast amounts of money are spent to attract customers with no pay off.
We know your product, its target group, their needs, values, and pain points. As a result, we can offer a marketing solution that allows for accurate prediction of CAC and keeping it at an acceptable level.
Low signup-to-customer conversion rates
After a successful product launch, an IT company may lose up to 90% of ad-generated leads which do not convert into loyal customers.
We create a strategy that not only brings in new customers but also retains them, increasing your LTV and strengthening your market position.
Dependence on affiliate customer acquisition channels
Staff marketers often have trouble building a customer base for the IT market. And the only thing that generates revenue is affiliate networks.
We build a scalable system for attracting customers to your business, monitoring every metric and channeling resources to truly profitable promotion channels.
2Challenges of finding contractors for an IT company
Problems IT companies face when they turn to a comprehensive marketing agency
Integ solution
Problems of IT companies
They have difficulties understanding the ins and outs of our business.
We have been in the IT business since 2006. We know our business from within and offer effective promotional schemes right away.
Problems of IT companies
They waste time going through the possible audience layers, queries, and keywords.
We know how people search for IT solutions, who they are, what they need, and how to meet their needs. We have a proven method that allows us to reach decision-makers and warm up leads through digital channels.
Problems of IT companies
Texts have to be rewritten because agency copywriters lack knowledge of the industry and are confused with terminology.
We are all – including our copywriting department – specialized in IT and can “speak” different technical languages. We discuss and proofread every article, post or text as a team to avoid any inaccuracy.
Problems of IT companies
External specialists lack in-depth knowledge of specific matters in our field.
We have relevant experience and understand what niche topics will quickly increase your brand’s expertise and awareness.
Problems of IT companies
They have nothing new to offer and use conservative, outdated approaches.
We do not use ready-made solutions, but instead form a strategy for your goals and objectives by incorporating the most effective tools and following the Growth Hacking Process.
Problems of IT companies
We get consulting instead of results.
Integ's approach is to focus on the result. We work on a turnkey basis, building a sustainable system and working through the value of the business at all stages. A transparent media plan, clear objectives, and KPI analysis will allow you to measure the achievements step by step.
Problems of IT companies
It takes them quite some time to delve into your business processes.
Our competencies go beyond digital marketing. We quickly reach an understanding with all product team members in any IT projects.
Problems of IT companies
You hire a marketing specialist, but his or her competence turns out to be below your expectations. However, in Europe/the USA, it is pretty difficult to fire a full-time specialist after the probationary period.
Outsourcing solves this problem. You don't need to have your own staff, train them, pay their salaries, and provide them with fringe benefits. Working with us, you get a team experienced in the IT industry with their own methodology for attracting customers.

As a matter of example, let us consider not an IT company but a medical clinic in a city with a population of over a million. Its advertising budget would be between $4,000 and $6,000 per month. If we look at a business running a couple of restaurants in the same city, we would again see an amount of about $5,000 per month spent for advertising. And these are just local micro-businesses.
So if you have an IT business, you must be prepared for bigger budgets. And if you want to enter Western markets, just look what the current costs are in Europe and the United States, including not only outsourcing but also hiring someone to work full-time.

We have analyzed and summarized all this data into a single table for you. Please study it, and you will see how much it will cost to attract a client for your services in Western markets.

Petr Dzyuba, CEO

IT is what Integ team is most knowledgeable about, since we are an IT company ourselves
The founder of an IT company created from scratch without any investment in an unstable post-crisis market. In a few years, the company grew into a developing business.
Digital marketing has helped to increase traffic to the corporate website 45-fold, turning it into a well-trusted information portal.
Over the course of the project, we raised the traffic by about 45 times. While in 2015-2017, the website had 32,000 visitors (two-year statistics), by 2020 we managed to reach 30,000-50,000 visits per month.

And by the end of 2020, the traffic had grown to 50,000-60,000 unique visitors per month.

Case Studies

We understand which processes and strategies are suitable for promoting IT brands and which are not. Fewer tests save your budget and time!
A SaaS project

A SaaS project

Goal: Increase paid subscribers, and launch new business lines.

What was done:
We have completed a full range of work on the promotion of the service: from making a media plan for different directions of traffic to analyzing each step and improving the performance.

What the client got:
  • A promotion strategy;
  • Lead generation from paid channels (up to 50 registrations per day from one digital platform);
  • Bundles developed for 10+ types of target audience;
  • Project's visitor-to-subscriber conversion rate boosted from 3-7% to 9-30% (!).
The brand became recognizable; the traffic became steady; customer acquisition became cheaper; and profit increased considerably.
Traffic before the promotion:
> 30,000/year
Traffic during the promotion:
> 45,000/month

An HR project

Goal: Provide comprehensive brand promotion and reduce the cost of recruiting qualified personnel.

Previously, the cost of hiring a mid- and an upper-level employee was ≈ 20% of the average annual salary.

What was done:
  • We have developed an HR system for recruitment and used it to carry out a set of works on 9 types of traffic.
  • The cost of sourcing a candidate was reduced by 4-7 times (depending on the vacancy) compared to fees of recruitment agencies, with advertising budgets of ≈ $2 to $5 per country.
What the client got:
  • A smoothly working recruitment product;
  • A ready-to-use promotion strategy;
  • Eight running advertising channels (SEO, AdWords, YouTube, TikTok, myTarget, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest);
  • Data-driven search for staff and regular recruitment;
  • Auto funnels with working conditions;
  • Chatbots developed for all major platforms, such as Facebook*/Telegram/Viber.
Recruitment is now faster and cheaper.
Traffic before the promotion:

AI SEO for service providers: a new B2B sales channel through ChatGPT

15 qualified applications with large budgets from AI search results

  • leads from target countries – with a willingness to buy and a high budget for IT solutions;
  • optimization of the sales department;
  • increasing brand awareness among B2B audiences;
  • a competitive advantage at the nascent stage of the AI-B2B trend.

We are very pleased about working with Integ. From the first meeting, it was obvious that our cooperation would succeed.

Finding industry professionals who understand your focused needs is a real challenge. It's always a lottery with IT: most contractors do their work half-heartedly. As for Integ, we trusted them immediately, thanks to their expertise in digital technology and understanding of the digital market. The positioning of our services got the correct format, and the results did not take long to come.
