Challenges we faced

The biggest challenge we faced was the competition: sales tech is one of the most competitive niches on the internet.

We knew from the start we’d be competing with giants like Hubspot and Salesforce, but also more direct competitors like Outreach and Salesloft, who already had gained some organic traction.

So we needed to be extremely strategic in how to move forward, and ensure that the growth roadmap we created:

-Was attainable and included a mix of short-term wins with a long-term vision.

-Went above and beyond in value—not only taught the readers something, but entertained them.

-Focus on the customer first while using Google a distribution channel.

-Considered how SEO content could be written so that it could also be repurposed into standalone content for LinkedIn to be consumed in-feed.

What we did

In addition to leveraging Mixmax’s in-house team, we also reached out to industry experts on LinkedIn to get quotes and contributions to the content. The reasoning behind this was threefold:

-Get even more expert insights and provide additional value to the readers

-Another distribution channel—most contributors were proud to be featured on the content and shared it on LinkedIn

-More and more sales industry influencers became aware of Mixmax

It worked very well, and the influencers themselves were raving about the quality of the content we created this way:

Some of the content was so powerful, that we outranked websites like Hubspot for keywords like “b2b sales automation“.

We created some super high intent competitor comparison pages, like “Outreach Alternatives” and “Salesloft Alternatives“—some which reached page 1 within 15 hours of pubishing. This was due to the time we spent and consistency we implemented in building topical authority.
