DemandScience
Chose DemandScience
INFUSEmedia has knocked it out of the park. The only thing is they don’t have the volume DemandScience Activate has.
Chose DemandScience
The quality of leads that we got from INFUSE media was truly horrible. The leads often did not meet our qualifications set that would qualify them as MQLs and if they did, when they were reached out to, we were told they had no interest in converting and that they didn't even …
INFUSE
Chose INFUSE
We frequently change up our vendors and rotate through. Compared to BrightTALK we found INFUSEmedia delivered higher-quality leads and was easier to work with at a far better price. DemandScience and INFUSEmedia are fairly level when compared with each other.

DemandScience
Demand Science did deliver the quantity of leads without issue. The data for a few was not accurate (bounced when following up). But they agreed to make good by providing substitute leads to meet the quota. Towards the end of my project, they lost a few folks, and so the end of my campaign got a little rough as they were taking over some assignments midway. But we ultimately completed the SOW. I will say that the leads did not perform well in our email cadence - none converted. However, this was a test of the concept for us. Content syndication had a lower cost per qualified lead than some other tactics, so we tested it. Your results may vary, based on your follow-up and your market.

I've recommended INFUSEmedia to colleagues in the past, primarily in situations where teams are looking to generate lead volume and either struggling to achieve that volume or looking to diversify the partners and channels that they run with. Based on my own experience, I have typically recommended INFUSEmedia for B2B teams as the contexts that I have worked with INFUSEmedia have been for that sector of clients. I would be less likely to recommend for B2C clients as my understanding is not that INFUSEmedia would be a good fit for that type of strategy.

Pros
DemandScience
  • The initial pitch and contact from Mason used "show me you know me" well, which we felt was a good sign of company culture and approach to database marketing.
  • Delivery of leads was ahead of schedule.
  • They set expectations, and then delivered what they said they would.
  • The leads matched our criteria as agreed.
  • Regular check ins and catch ups, and patience when thing were taking a bit of time to get sorted here.

INFUSE

Cons
DemandScience
  • We would like to see more proactive communication on what's working and what's not without requiring a meeting - regular reporting cadence to assess asset quality
  • A dashboard view might be nice as well, again, so we can look at an asset and see how it's performing (or if it isn't) without having to wait on a rep to pull a report or schedule a walkthrough

  • If you can not integrate the leads into your CRM, they come over in batches and merging and distributing can be tricky.
  • When we have used them to help drive registration for events, they get a lot of sign ups but, way more no shows than the industry average.

Our executives decided to not renew because we were not seeing the ROI they were looking for. However, our executives did not make the best decisions on the data Demand Science provided.

We are very satisfied with the services of Infuse Media. They are a high-level third party vendor.

Usability
DemandScience
The leads were pretty straight forward. However, their appointment setting did not integrate well into our system and many of the meetings didn't occur. I had to chase a lot of prospects and many times Demand Science didn't provide direct dials.

Support Rating
DemandScience
Our rep is always available and quickly responds to any question we have. I haven't worked with other partners who are as proactive and excited to help us as our DemandScience rep is. He reaches out with new ideas and suggestions frequently. They are happy to make any changes needed to the campaigns and make those changes quickly and efficiently. They work well with our execution agency, but are also happy to meet with us directly to provide insights and support.

The team is cohesive and efficient. Everyone at INFUSEmedia is happy to help and support regardless of our account owner to resolve any new queries or issues that may arise. The communication is second to none and we don't have a long wait before we receive a response to last minute requests, which is imperative in the ever changing atmosphere of agency.

They did extremely well. However, our executives did a poor job in defining our ICP so we didn't get the maximum benefit out of it.

I've not used another content syndication company, and I probably won't after the lack of results we've had. I have used direct email organizations, and they are stronger but also more expensive, so you have to weigh your priorities. I could see if you were selling a specific product or software and how this could be beneficial, but I'd steer away from it for services.

Return on Investment
DemandScience
  • We have been able to grow our lead numbers with high quality leads at a reasonable cost
  • We have been able to generate just the leads we want to support our Business Development team
  • We have been able to get our content in front of our specific TAL

INFUSE
  • Because it's content syndication, it's fixed CPL so it's easy to forecast demand and return
  • A lot of leads generated are raw so they don't usually get to pipeline stage until at least 2 quarters, it's a long game for us
  • High quality job titles, however like any CS provider, need to double check the titles to ensure the job titles generated are correct
