Going up against large national brands like the AHA and American Red Cross, ProTrainings needed help boosting their brand visibility and trustworthiness.

Not only did we increase their organic blog traffic by 1,707% in one year, but also we learned exactly what type of content their prospects wanted and increased email open rates to 25.2–56.8% and click-through rates to as high as 13.1%!

Before working with Cornell, DYOPATH suffered from a common B2B problem: All of their marketing was overly salesy and focused on bottom-funnel tactics. The result: They were getting as few as 2 MQLs per month!

After just one year, Cornell increased their inbound MQLs to an average of 41 per month and transformed their brand reputation into one that prospects enjoyed interacting with.

Using only organic strategies, Cornell helped HYC build a pipeline where 95% of leads and closed deals came from their website.

As a result, the company saw a 553% increase in revenue, received over 100 leads per month, and never spent a dime on ads.

Not only did we help Reel Paper grow their visibility and audience size as a new brand in a sea of giants, but — more importantly — we helped them build customer loyalty and convert consumers away from their long-standing brands to become die-hard Reel Paper customers.
