What problems is Couch & Associates solving and how is that benefiting you?

We knew we needed to adopt a CRM to help grow our business, and Couch & Associates was able to take our business requirements and translate them into technical deliverables.

They provided us with best practices around the use of CRM and how we could improve our overall sales strategy by being more data driven and focused.

Describe the project or task Couch & Associates helped with:

I have worked with Couch & Associates for many years, at my previous and current jobs. They have delivered marketing automation solutions as well as lead reporting and insight solutions. They have also stepped in when I suddenly lost my resources and helped me manage my marketing automation team and execute on projects - build strategy that aligned with organizational goals, roadmap and reporting KPIs against benchmarks. They were also instrumental in optimizing the investment in my automation platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couch & Associates?

Really understood our business and became a part of our team. Made it easy for us to separate strategy from tactics. Helped us to become more data driven, which allowed us to make the best of the resources that we had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couch & Associates?

There is nothing that I dislike about working with Couch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couch & Associates solving and how is that benefiting you?

Optimizing our investment in the platform; showing value to our internal partners on their campaigns, helped with customer life cycle - acquisition, retention through advocacy. More innovative approach to solutions that was outside of industry norms - not just following what others were doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Couch & Associates helped with:

We have hired Couch & Associates for several Eloqua related projects. Since we do not have an Eloqua expert in house, Couch &Associates has taken on that role. They really have become an extension of our marketing operations team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couch & Associates?

Couch & Associates have been great at constant touch bases through out each project. They come to the meetings very well prepared so that each meeting is very productive. We typically can make decisions based on the data presented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couch & Associates?

Not necessarily unhelpful and it's a bit of a like/dislike situation. Couch & Associates's use an agile model so projects have a finite end date. This forces us to stay on task, which is great, but there are times where other dependencies might lag so that we are unable to meet the end of the sprint. In cases like this, however, they have been great about documenting next steps so we can take the reigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Couch & Associates:

Great group of people to work with - I highly recommend them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couch & Associates solving and how is that benefiting you?

We would not have been able to accomplish a fraction of what we have since our engagements have started. Couch & Associates help get our integration back up and running with Salesforce - this was critical (Dan Hight is a rockstar). They have also build our lead scoring, a complex lead management system, a compliance program and several others. We look good because of their hard work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Couch & Associates helped with:

They have helped with so many projects. From customer onboarding to acquisition and win back. Most currently we're working on a customer referral program that isn't performing well. We hope to turn it around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couch & Associates?

We use Eloqua for email, almost no other non-profits use this software so we're on an island. They completely understand how to use the tool and its functionality. Without that knowledge, we could not be successful. Additionally, they understand digital marketing which is also helpful. They are all very professional and knowledgable. They are an essential part of our marketing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couch & Associates?

Their costs are high. My estimation is they are best suited to "for-profit" companies which render far more obvious profitability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Couch & Associates solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're becoming more modern and automated in our marketing approach. We have learned new approaches and have improved services. We hope to ultimately see far greater profitability in the future, vs just slight reductions in costs and staff time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
