Sage Software increases opportunity creation by 50% with 6sense account engagement

The problem

Sage's marketing and sales teams applied the same campaigns and messaging across both small and medium business segments, failing to segment by TAM or ICP and leaving the sales team unable to capture the right audience or prioritize high-intent prospects.
