SEO Platform & Account Management
Comparison of SEO Platform & Account Management features of Product A and Product B
I think that Matrix is a fairly good CRM tool for sales organizations to utilize to manage account lists and track progress to budget. Managers can encourage sales folks by utilizing the reports to track progress from current year to previous years, and see what changes need to be made. I don't feel like relying completely on the integration of other systems to give you a fail proof look at where you are to budget is a great idea with this software, but for a basic CRM tool, it does the trick.
Create outlines from pages that are already ranking for a particular keyword. It performs SERP analysis to find common headings and sections amongst the pages.
Generate content for different types of sections. You can also use custom prompt, or select of the pre-defined types to generate. For e.g., convert features to benefits.
Get detailed analysis of website SEO performance from Google Search Console. Find pages that quickly gain/loose ranks.
I do think that completeness in which it integrates data from our traffic and order entry system could improve some. We have found instances where data isn't cleanly input and requires some manual clean up on the backside.
While the system itself is pretty user-friendly, sometimes the system itself seems a bit slow. For AE's whose time is rather valuable, this I know they find annoying at times.
Since I have the ability to see everyone's data and not just one AE's, I would like the managerial functionality a bit more comprehensive. Some of the reports are a bit cumbersome.
Well MarketMuse and Frase may seem alternative to one another but we are using both of them in our workflow for different purposes. While MarketMuse is best for Topic Modeling, Frase gives you edge with competitive analysis like Headings, Questions and so on. So yeah some of their features overlap each other but as I told earlier, we are using both of them in complement to each other.
I think they are doing the right things, staying in their lane. I never like it when companies try to be everything to everyone. It dilutes their effectiveness on their core values to me. I want them to drill down and focus on the things they are already doing and keep making them better.
We have published around 12 pieces with the guidance of this tool, and we are already ranking on top for around 10 pieces, so we are getting almost 20x ROI
I do think that Matrix has had a positive impact of requiring AE's to better manage their own business.
Since I don't directly deal with the contractual piece of Matrix, as far as what the actual ROI is, I can't speak to that. But I can say this, our organization has used this for at least the 6 years I've been there. It is used on a national level, so I do believe that it's roll up features are ones that can be utilized through the organization.
As far as our overall business objectives in the sales department, it certainly meets the needs of both the management team as well as the sales team to managing clients and annual budgets.
