Anderson & Vreeland

Anderson & Vreeland is one of the leading flexographic printing distributors in the world. In May 2014, A&V was in search of a full service digital marketing agency to take over their content marketing, search engine optimization, and brand management.

Anderson & Vreeland is a company with an eye on the future. Their team felt that the company’s marketing efforts were outdated and needed fresh eyes to come in and boost creative, measure and analyze campaign data, and provide a forward-thinking strategy that would assist both online and offline marketing efforts.

In response, we brought in HubSpot, the perfect tool to modernize their marketing efforts and align their marketing and sales teams. With HubSpot, A&V now had the capability to automate their entire outreach and lead nurturing processes, allowing their sales team to focus on leading prospects further down the funnel. We also integrated Salesforce into HubSpot so A&V could have access to the huge amount of valuable lead data and reports automatically synced into one robust dashboard for both the marketing and sales teams.

Over the course of three years, we became a complete outsourced marketing department for the company, developing a new brand identity, executing integrated marketing campaigns, developing creative content, and streamlining a data-driven process that has increased both leads and conversions. Detailed work on the account includes:

• Created the Past, Present, and Future of Flexography Infographic for the company to debut at their biggest trade show of the year, Label Expo 2014.
• Increased overall site traffic from 4,984 average monthly visits in May 2014 to 5,721 average monthly visits as of January 2017, with additional targeted traffic and tracked conversions.
