Our use case was not directly connected to sales, so it is hard to say about the impact on buyers. I assume that the better they (buyers) know our product(s) through the company's assets, educational materials, guides, and recommendations the easier for them to make a right, well-weighted decision.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
PathFactory is currently only being used by the Marketing department at my company, predominantly managed and used by the Demand Gen team. The primary business problem PathFactory addresses is prospect/customer engagement. Previously the majority of our leads would engage with a single piece of content before communicating with sales or never re-engaging. With PathFactory we are able to encourage content binging, increasing lead engagement, and better educating them on our company. This leads to more qualified leads, better sales conversations, and ultimately more business. All of the data collected further inform what types of content, as well as asset themes, resonate best with customers.
Pros and Cons
  • Since PathFactory is able to track known lead engagement, we never have to present a known prospect/customer with a form. We are simply able to present them with content and track their engagement.
  • Furthermore, we can also present an unknown lead with content, wait a specific amount of time and then present them with a form before they can proceed. This encourages leads to want to give us their info, instead of feeling forced too, leading to a higher form fill rate.
  • PathFactory also has a fantastic customer success team that was instrumental in our on-boarding/implementation process, as well as actively help us take advantage of all the PathFactory platform has to offer.
  • Honestly, we have only been a customer for 6 months thus far, so I do not have a ton of Cons/Opinions yet. So far there haven't really been any issues...
Likelihood to Recommend
I think anytime a B2B marketing team has a heavy content strategy, PathFactory is a no-brainer. In general, PathFactory creates an all-around better customer experience, helping nurture and educate leads in real-time. PathFactory also leads to a better internal experience, as we are able to generate more qualified leads as well as better sales conversations - keeping both marketing and sales happy.

Return on Investment
  • In 6 months PathFactory has already helped nurture and educate leads more efficiently and effectively; leading to more qualified leads and better sales conversations. We will continue to monitor how it ultimately impacts our closed won business.
PathFactory Value Proposition
PathFactory has already been able to help increase our campaign effectiveness. Simply being able to send an ungated nurture stream of content to prospects increase lead engagement. PathFactory has also already started to indicate what content resonates better with leads; which will help inform our content strategy going forward.
PathFactory Time to Value
It was a little more work than expected. I think between working for a cybersecurity company that has a pretty intense security operations review/requirements, combined with an understaffed marketing op and Eemand Gen team, it took a little longer than expected to set up. I know it is possible to implement PathFactory in two days for example, but it took me closer to two months. It is definitely worth the effort.
PathFactory Buyer Enablement
As I previously mentioned, since potential buyers are presented with a stream of content in front of them that they are able to engage with; it leads to more qualified leads and better sales conversations.
Alternatives Considered
We looked at both PathFactory and Uberflip, both companies have some similarities and some differences, and we ultimately went with PathFactory as it better suited our company needs.
