The company

About Progress Sitefinity.

Progress Sitefinity is a digital experience platform within the Progress portfolio, used by enterprises to build and govern marketing websites and digital experiences. The product sits inside the DXP and enterprise CMS category — alongside Adobe Experience Manager, Sitecore, and Optimizely — and competes on its developer experience, modular architecture, and price-performance for mid-market and enterprise teams.

The buyer is the marketing and digital leadership: VP of digital, head of web, marketing technology lead. The sales motion targets organizations replacing aging CMS infrastructure or modernizing toward composable architectures, with a long evaluation cycle involving both marketing and IT.

The problem

The problem.

The Sitefinity Google Ads account was generating low lead volume with inconsistent quality and high cost per lead. As the account grew in complexity, it became harder to direct spend toward the highest-value opportunities, making it difficult to scale MQLs and SQLs while keeping cost per qualified lead under control.

The work

What we built.

We prioritized structural changes in the ad account so that offline conversions from the CRM could contribute more effectively to account objectives. Search campaign consolidation helped concentrate impression and conversion data so optimization could transition further down the pipeline — from form fills to MQLs and SALs. Ad messaging and keyword targeting were refined to improve traffic intent and attract higher-quality leads.
