For months, Rand McNally “Sales Reps” phoned Fortune 1,000
company executives to sell “custom” logoed maps with very
disappointing results. Few leads and even fewer sales led to heavy internal
frustration.
By repositioning Rand McNally sales reps as renamed “Customs Agents”,
Pinnacle brought intrigue and excitement to their telemarketing roles
and boosted morale.
Combined with Pinnacle’s sales training and a cost-effective 3-wave teaser direct
mail campaign, this new group of “Customs Agents” hit their targets and really
delivered the goods.
A 23% response rate, huge sales lifts, significant profits AND…a
fun, memorable identity that transcended the company.
