By Hojabr Sattari. Updated .

The short answer

Powered by Search and PlanConversion both help B2B companies grow pipeline, but they are built for different situations. PlanConversion is a revenue generation agency: a senior-level team that has worked with fast-growing enterprise companies and takes on a selective number of clients. We know enterprise environments, speak their language, and provide data-driven advisory with design, execution, reporting and optimization in one team. Our weekly and monthly reporting is built for CMOs who must show results and progress to management. Below is a side-by-side view based on Powered by Search’s own website, and when each is the better choice.

Where PlanConversion is different

  • A senior-level team with experience at fast-growing enterprise companies, and a selective number of clients so every program gets senior attention
  • Fluent in enterprise environments and their challenges: buying committees, long cycles, governance and ambitious targets, for public and private companies
  • Data-driven advisory plus design, execution, reporting and optimization in one team that works alongside yours like in-house resources, with every expertise needed
  • Weekly and monthly reporting built for CMOs to show results and progress to management, on the metrics investors and executive teams care about
  • Hands-on ABM platform operation: Demandbase partner and 6sense rollouts
  • Programs in English and Quebec French (and Italian), written natively
  • Published prices and month-to-month terms

How we work with your marketing team

  • We join your team as in-house resources: strategy, design, execution, reporting and optimization under one senior owner
  • Data-driven advisory first: we recommend where budget and effort should go and show the numbers behind it
  • A weekly working session and a monthly executive readout designed for the CMO to take to management
  • Every program reported on pipeline, revenue and ARR from your CRM, not on clicks and impressions
