MagneConnect Product Launch
The Situation
- The launch of an innovative architectural lighting solution needed to excite the lighting and design community while engaging the sales rep network.
The Solution
- Multiple touch points made MagneConnect impossible to ignore while telling a complicated product story. I deployed content over multiple channels to lure designers in, educate them, capture their information, and then deliver a qualified lead to the in-house sales team. The secondary goal was to excite and motivate the out-of-house sales rep network to present MagneConnect during their routine sales calls.
