Challenge	The ServiceMax marketing team was faced with the challenge of providing a more tailored and personalized web experience for its visitors, while increasing form submissions. They aimed to decrease bounce rates and increase time on site for a specific group of targeted accounts. ServiceMax serves a wide and diverse client and prospect base, and with a small marketing team there just wasn’t enough bandwidth to manually create all the necessary personalization rules.

Solution	ServiceMax first implemented the Demandbase Forms solution that shortened the number of fields per form while still collecting critical firmographic data on the backend. By doing this, the company was able to capture key information from site visitors such as annual revenue, number of employees and company name and push it directly into their marketing automation system without asking the visitor for this data. Next, ServiceMax implemented Demandbase Site Optimization, powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Site Optimization allowed ServiceMax to go beyond the handful of personalization rules they already had in place to automatically recommend relevant content to each and every site visitor based on AI-powered insights. To measure against their goals, ServiceMax also leveraged Demandbase Analytics. With Analytics, they could understand traffic trends, bounce rates, conversion rates and other critical website metrics by account – even for anonymous visitors – based on IP address.
