Sendoso Leads in Account-Based Execution, Direct Mail Automation, Account-Based Direct Mail, and Promotional Product Management Software

G2 released their Spring 2020 Grid Report last month, and Sendoso has once again been named a leader in multiple categories: Account-Based Execution, Direct Mail Automation, Account-Based Direct Mail, and Promotional Product Management.

And out of nearly 58,000 software companies on G2, we’ve also been ranked number four on G2’s list of the fastest growing companies in 2020. We’re honored to have been rated so highly by our customers, and will continue innovating with new features that help them as we navigate the new playing field together.

We are dedicated to delivering features that serve our customers needs and we take every piece of feedback seriously.

In fact, it was because of customer feedback that we pushed an early release of our new Address Confirmation feature last month, allowing our customers to ask recipients to confirm their address before an item is sent so it’s delivered to wherever they are right now. We’ve also added more Sendoso Direct, Sendoso Choice, and eGift options to help our customers connect in relevant ways and support local businesses during times of uncertainty.

Like many companies, Sendoso has adopted a remote-work model for the time being. But our purpose has never been more important: enabling companies to maintain human connections and keep deals moving forward, no matter where people are working.

Let’s dive deeper into what exactly our customers say they value about the platform and how G2 determines category leaders.

How G2 Identifies Category Leaders

G2 scores products and vendors by accumulating reviews left by their community of users and aggregating data from social media and various online sources. Scores are allocated based on two key factors: user satisfaction, or “Satisfaction,” and overall prevalence in the market, or “Market Presence.”

Satisfaction and Market Presence scores are determined by:

• Product popularity from across the web
• The number of reviews and overall review quality
• Employee, web, and social presence growth
• The age of G2 reviews
• Customer and employee satisfaction

What Does Being a G2 Leader Mean?

When a company is leading a category on G2, that means, out of every platform that qualifies to be included, that organization has the highest Satisfaction and Market Presence scores.

Let’s dive deeper into the Direct Mail Automation, Promotional Product Management, Account-Based Execution, and Account-Based Direct Mail categories.

Direct Mail Automation

To be considered a leader in the Direct Mail Automation category, a platform must:

• Allow users to upload and manage lists of physical addresses

Sendoso allows you to send direct mail, gifts, and swag by uploading addresses or gathering the necessary mailing information from your CRM or marketing automation databases. Branding is easy to upload into team templates to ensure everything you send is consistent and adheres to messaging and style guidelines.

Our Print-On-Demand feature enables you to add custom designs to handwritten notes, Post-It notes, and printed notecards to your sends. With a click of a button, you’re empowered to print, ship, and track when items are received or redeemed in real-time.

• Store all promotional products within a warehouse
• Distribute promotional products by at least one of the following methods: bulk fulfillment, individual product drop shipments, digital link fulfillment and/or directly through orders via CRM software

Sendoso works hand-in-hand with merchandise distributors from across the world to source promotional products for our customers. Products are stored at our warehouses across the globe and itemized in real time so you know what items you have stocked and when it’s time to order more. You can even automate re-ordering to our warehouse when your inventory is running low.

Our solution also enables you to distribute promotional products via bulk fulfillment, link fulfillment, and directly via CRM (for sending on a one-to-one basis). Everything you source, store, and send is tracked so you have full visibility into budgets, campaign reporting, and spend versus closed-won deals.

Sendoso allows you to send personal physical and digital items via online and offline channels. Senders can create memorable, personalized touch points on a one-to-one, one-to-few, and one-to-many account basis.

Our integrations with CRM and marketing automation tools helps to create alignment across your marketing and sales teams. Marketers can automate campaigns to plan when and where marketing content is delivered, as well as target engagement on accounts with the highest conversion probability based on information like technographic and firmographic data.

Visibility into performance metrics helps marketers understand which sends are most effective so they can optimize their strategy and allocate budgets to accounts that are most likely to purchase. Sales can follow up faster by knowing when items have been sent, clicked, delivered, or redeemed. By rallying behind a unified ABM outreach strategy, our customers are able to create new opportunities, build rapport, and maintain lasting relationships.

• Provide the ability to send personalized, one-to-one direct mail, or gifts, to contacts within a company’s targeted accounts

Our Sending Platform empowers you to send highly personalized, one-to-one direct mail, gifts, and swag to your target accounts. You can even give prospects highly personalized gifts tailored to their unique interests and hobbies. If a prospect mentioned they’re a golf enthusiast, utilize Sendoso’s Amazon integration to select a gift that’s sure to be a hole in one. We’ll ship it to our warehouse, repackage it with your branding, and ship it to your prospect.

Not only will you build vital relationships, but you’ll also get real-time delivery notifications which enable speedier follow up. Reporting features help you track the status of opportunities in your campaign and measure ROI.
