The challenge

Cognition was engaged to restructure Wall Street English's global marketing strategy and roll this out using HubSpot, their chosen CRM, marketing and sales platform to multiple territories.

All territories required HubSpot onboarding and set up. Also, bespoke training on the HubSpot CRM, Marketing Hub and Sales Hub.

“Cognition is helping us to drive a wholesale reappraisal of our approach to marketing, including implementing inbound marketing tactics across the global WSE network.”

The solution

A bespoke training programme was developed to introduce each territory to HubSpot, and leverage the full potential of the software. This included funnel-based nurturing campaigns which would inform how territories adapted inline with their customers, and sales tactics from deal stages, to sales automation, through to the psychology behind closing more deals.

A 6-12 month course was produced to include a 3-day onsite training, and weekly online training department-wide. 

Cognition developed a global sales programme to run alongside the ongoing marketing tactics and formulated new processes, reporting, and ongoing optimisation tactics for continual improvement across the business.

An email was received from WSE International, subject: June 110%:

"I just wanted to share that the Saudi team reported achieving 110% of their sales target in May which was a significant result considering Ramadan. I wanted to thank everyone for their hard work and contribution to this effort. We have already come such a long way."
