AnalysisInterview highlights and model


Forrester interviewed one organization using Call Marketplace And Call Analytics

Demographics:• US-based provider of security

solutions for small businesses and residential properties

• Recent fiscal year revenue of over $3 billion

• Over 6 million customers

Challenges:• Due to complexity of

products/services, customers like to purchase via call center

• Limited mobile advertising strategy prior to Marchex

Objectives:• Sought mobile solution to drive

inbound calls, increase conversions

• Sought call tracking platform to understand and use data to optimize strategy

Results:• Chose Marchex for full-service• Call Marketplace drives calls,

improves conversion, uses budget efficiently

• Call Analytics provides optimization of spend


The interviewed organization noted several key results from its investment

“We use Call Analytics reporting to provide data to our dealers and our call centers to track various programs. Visibility is crucial to us to manage the cause and effect of our digital programs.”

- Program manager

“Marchex Call Marketplace enables our organization to participate and bid on targeted media placements unavailable to traditional agencies.”

- Douglas Cohen, manager, digital marketing

“Marchex Call Marketplace produces leads 20% more efficiently than other paid media channels purchased on a performance model.”

- Douglas Cohen, manager, digital marketing


The interviewed organization quantified key benefits resulting from its investment in

Marchex Call Marketplace And Call Analytics

INCREMENTAL REVENUE

advertising and reporting activities


Three-year risk-adjusted benefit: $57.8m

Metric Annually (not PV)

Incremental call volume 56,000-141,000

Average lead-to-sale conversion rate 15-30%

Average contract value $1,044

Risk adjustment 10%

Incremental revenue (risk-adjusted) $11.6m - $30.5m

Call Marketplace delivers incremental call volume and has doubled the average conversion rate

Marchex is designing and placing mobile display, paid search, voice search, directory listings, and mobile app integration advertisements. Insights from call data are applied back into campaign planning and execution on a weekly basis.

Propensity for customers to engage via phone will affect budget support for mobile advertising and performance


Marchex staff conduct most day-to-day operations, freeing up internal resource time

The organization saw time savings from its use of Call Marketplace in three areas: reporting, mobile strategy, and designing creatives.

• The organization began using Call Marketplace early in its use of mobile advertising. Organizations that adopt Call Marketplace further along in the adoption curve could see additional time savings

• What can you do with additional time?

Three-year risk-adjusted benefit: $34,920

Metric Annually (not PV)

Time saved – data/strategy analysis (hours) 156

Time saved – creatives (hours) 52

Average fully loaded compensation $120,000

Risk adjustment 3%

Time savings (risk-adjusted) $11,640


The organization can generate reports more quickly and gains visibility to help power strategy

Before using Call Analytics, there was no solution to oversee metrics across different campaigns, locations, sales centers, and dealers. With these reports, the organization can use that data to try to optimize the customer call experience and media spend to try to increase conversion rates.

• What can you do with Analytics?• What can you do with additional time?

Time savings for report generation (hours) 195

Average fully loaded compensation $120,000

Risk adjustment 3%

Time savings(risk-adjusted) $10,913


In order to achieve these benefits, the organization incurred costs in three categories

• For Call Marketplace, the organization pays for qualified calls delivered to its call center. The specific thresholds for a quality call, including call duration parameters, were set by the organization at the beginning of the campaign. Average cost-per-call is based on the media mix chosen.

• Call Analytics is also priced on a per-call basis. The organization set a call duration minimum of 2 minutes and pays a flat fee for each call analyzed.

• A majority of the upfront setup and ongoing management of the Call Marketplace campaign is run by Marchex.

• Training for both Call Marketplace and Call Analytics was minimal due to automated reporting built into each product as well as the support provided by the Marchex team.

In addition to benefits and costs, TEI includes potential risks and future “flexibility” options

Flexibility, as defined by TEI, represents the opportunity to make an investment in additional capacity or capability that could be turned into future business benefit:› Much of the benefit derived from analytics solutions is in how the data is used

within the organization to promote efficiencies and new business.› Freeing up time for internal resources can yield valuable future results.

Implementation risk› Media mix and the size of the

monthly call budget affect cost› Resource costs and training costs

will vary

There are two types of Risk that TEI considers:Impact risk› Internal/external factors that can

affect realization of revenue› Time savings benefits depend on

many factors
