Repositioning and Rebranding for Market Leadership and $80M Pipeline Growth

Situation:

JACS had strong engineering capabilities but was still seen as a hardware manufacturer without clear differentiation from a broad range of competitors. That limited presence in enterprise markets at a time when competitors were outpacing them in both brand credibility and digital presence was hindering growth.

Challenge:

The company needed to shed its legacy identity, build a modern marketing engine, and position itself as a trusted solutions partner. Without that shift, pipeline growth and market expansion would remain stalled as they served only a handful of legacy customers.

The Solution:

I led a comprehensive transformation of the marketing function. The centerpiece was a full rebrand that repositioned JACS around the concept “When Off the Shelf Is Off the Table”  to embrace the company’s core strength – building highly-engineered custom technology solutions. This narrative reframed the company from a low-cost device maker to a technology partner capable of solving complex challenges where generic solutions fell short.

Employing both internal and contract resources, our team redesigned the JACS website, clarified messaging, and armed sales with a suite of new enablement assets. Simultaneously, I built the company’s marketing infrastructure from the ground up. A martech stack that included Salesforce, HubSpot, ZoomInfo, and more provided lead scoring, automated nurture campaigns, and performance dashboards tied directly to revenue outcomes.

To expand reach, I also launched a partner marketing program that recruited and enabled value-added resellers and distributors. By co-developing campaigns, introducing training, and offering MDF programs, JACS extended into new markets without increasing acquisition costs.

The Result:

The impact was immediate and measurable. Within the first year, JACS generated more than $80M in new pipeline, including the largest deal in company history. Digital engagement surged: organic traffic increased 6x, web conversions tripled, and the brand ranked in the top ten for multiple high-value keywords that brought some of the leading companies in our ICP to our sales team. Sales and marketing alignment accelerated deal velocity, and the partner channel began delivering steady net-new opportunities.

Most importantly, JACS successfully shifted its market identity. No longer viewed as a hardware vendor, the company earned credibility as a solutions-driven technology partner, unlocking enterprise-level growth opportunities and setting a foundation for long-term expansion.
