At SIGMA Marketing Group, we make it our mission to maximize ROI
for every client. Working together, we create more profitable customer
relationships through analytics, strategic one-to-one communications
and marketing optimization techniques. Our proven retention and
acquisition solutions not only drive corporate revenue—they also

We do this by combining many sources of relevant data to create a true
picture of your customer base. Then we segment your customers and
develop strategic marketing programs to meet their—and your—actual
needs, so that you get more of the targeted customers (and sales) that
you really want. Some call this magic. Others call it genius. We prefer
to call it Smart-to-Market™ solutions. And it’s the shortest route you
can take to maximum ROI.

7. SIGMA
guides every client to marketing success.
Our Smart-to-Market™ solutions can solve your biggest business challenges.
One of the fastest ways to increase revenues is to find out which of your customers are
likely to leave, and stop them before it happens. And, of course, you’d like more of the
customers who present the most profit potential. With SIGMA’s proven Smart-to-Market™
programs, you’ll discover where you stand with your customers, and where to go next.
Retention: Plug the leaks!
Identify possible targets before they leave:
• Too many service calls
• Reduction in assets or purchase volumes
• Slowdowns in frequency
Acquisition: They love us, where can I find more like them?
Find the target most likely to be a great customer:
• Will the audience turn into profitable customers?
• Once they buy, are they likely to stick around?
Cross-sell/Up-sell: If they like this, I bet they’ll love that.
Create the best customer purchase lifecycle:
• What’s the next most likely product they’ll buy?
• Upgrade to more profitable products, purchased more frequently
Brand Evangelists: Find your cheerleaders.
Excite the customers who will tell their friends about your company:
• Which customers are advocates for your brand?
• How big is their social network?
• How can you best thank them for their loyalty?
SIGMA not only specializes in developing B2C relationships for the long term, we’re
also experts in helping businesses talk to each other, with B2B solutions that range from
demand generation to sales force optimization and time-saving marketing automation.
