Sales Engagement • Fortune 500 Win • 30+ Microsites
If you're working in a deeply competitive, low differentiation, and highly technical space—or selling anything that's commoditized—microsites are a great way to help make complex, multi-stakeholder, multi-phase buying easier.

Salesloft, the leading Sales Engagement platform, helps sales teams drive more revenue. It's the one place where sellers can go to execute their digital selling tasks, communicate with buyers, understand what to do next, forecast with accuracy, and get the coaching and insights they need to win more deals.
Salesloft faced the challenge of navigating a highly competitive market and engaging with buyers in complex, multi-stakeholder, multi-month purchasing processes. Seeking a secure, scalable, centralized, and market-differentiating solution, Salesloft turned to Zoomforth, a cloud-based microsite design platform.
Before using Zoomforth, Salesloft struggled with managing value engineering, sales engineering, solutions consulting, and sales communications efficiently. The highly competitive sales engagement space, with numerous players offering similar solutions, created a challenging, overwhelming buying climate.
Technical requirements necessitated cross-functional buying committees, and business outcomes had to be defensible.
Salesloft utilized microsites to simplify the buying process, store important content, and stay organized. However, existing solutions lacked the required security, scalability, and centralized features.
Zoomforth emerged as the most secure, on-brand, and scalable solution after thorough evaluation. By leveraging Zoomforth, Salesloft improved the buying experience for prospects and provided enhanced service to strategic customers. They were able to maintain brand consistency, ensure security, and differentiate their sales approach. Moreover, Zoomforth reduced their reliance on email for communication.
Salesloft's team found great value in Zoomforth's branded templates and WYSIWYG editor. These features enabled them to quickly create and deploy new microsites, aligning with their brand and saving time. The ability to copy and paste sections and subpages across different sites proved instrumental in rapidly expanding use cases and applications for microsites.
Within six months, Salesloft launched over 30 microsites using Zoomforth, saving significant time and resources compared to their previous solution. Notably, a microsite played a pivotal role in securing a Fortune 500 supply chain and logistics company in a competitive three-vendor evaluation. The success with Zoomforth's solution has led Salesloft to explore additional applications, such as account-based marketing campaigns and scaled onboarding programs.
Customers responded positively to the improved buying experience enabled by Zoomforth. The solution instilled confidence in Salesloft's organization, professionalism, and commitment to security. As a result, Salesloft plans to continue leveraging Zoomforth for various initiatives, including persona-based strategies and enabling the release of new technology and capabilities.
Salesloft's collaboration with Zoomforth empowered them to overcome the challenges of a competitive market and complex buying processes. By leveraging Zoomforth's secure and scalable microsite design platform, Salesloft improved the buying experience for prospects, enhanced service for strategic customers, and achieved impressive results in terms of site launches and high-profile wins. Zoomforth's features, such as branded templates and an intuitive editor, significantly contributed to Salesloft's success, positioning them as a trusted and organized partner in their industry.
Staying on-brand, polished, and secure signals to your buyer that you value their time and are organized. Instilling this sort of confidence and command of the sale can be the very difference between a win and a loss.
