Challenges

100ms has established a strong Product Market Fit (PMF) with leading Indian EdTech giants such as Byju’s, Whitehat Jr, and Classplus.
In order to further drive user and revenue growth, the company is now eyeing expansion into the United States market.
The objective is not only to identify a Product-Market Fit but also a Channel-Market Fit, to effectively target mid-market and enterprise customers.
Given that sales cycles in this segment are expected to be considerably longer, it is crucial to identify cost-effective channels for both initial customer acquisition and nurturing them through the sales cycle.

Strategy

To facilitate the expansion of our US Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy, we proactively initiated Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and content marketing efforts three months ahead of time.
This not only allowed us to gauge the market’s search intent but also resulted in a remarkable 400% increase in non-branded SEO traffic.
In our Google Ads approach, we focused our efforts on targeted competitor campaigns, as we believed they had a higher likelihood of generating sales and a shorter sales cycle.
By closely aligning our sales and marketing efforts, we were able to effectively penetrate the US market and establish a strong presence in the mid-market and enterprise customer segments.
