Companies nowadays must deal with high inflation rates, layoffs, and shortages of talent. But it’s time to face the challenges ahead! At Simon-Kucher Elevate, we support you to use your existing data to better grow your company even in the most challenging times. Improve your marketing, sales, and IT strategy – with us!
Markets are expecting an economic downturn. Many companies are struggling with inflation and a shortage of skilled workers at the same time as trade in consumer goods is slumping. To counter this, many companies in B2C sectors are currently cutting costs in the short term, as they still want to make profits.
Is your company also doing this? If so, you’d better give it a second thought! Cutting costs is often a risky approach that poses the long-term danger of the firm being left behind by the competition. It’s worth remembering that it’s always easier to earn more money than to save it.
The question you’re probably asking yourself now is “how do I do that?” How can you find a quick route out of the crisis and continue to grow – even in economically turbulent times?

- Improve the potential of your marketing spending
Often, the greatest difficulty in marketing is finding out what expenses produce a real benefit in attracting more leads and customers. It’s all too easy for companies that invest large sums in their marketing to be less successful in their efforts than companies that allocate their marketing budget to specific channels.
We can help you increase the effectiveness of your marketing budget by 15 to 20 percent! This includes deriving the ideal marketing budget for each region, market, and channel. From radio to optimized digital advertising – we can use your data to find out where you are spending too much or too little.

- Learn how to precisely reduce customer churn
One requirement of both B2B and B2C sales is to manage “churn risks” – customers who might otherwise change providers and should be retained whenever possible. Particularly in B2C sales, customers are very willing to switch and have a wide range to choose from. According to statistics, it is five times cheaper to implement measures to retain existing customers for the long term than to try and attract new customers through marketing.
To identify customers who are likely to churn, it’s necessary to analyze available usage and customer data. With the right analyses and suitable measures, our experts can help you reduce the number of customers who will churn, particularly valuable ones, by up to 25 percent.

- Reduce the costs of your services and IT infrastructure
In our projects, we repeatedly see that legacy systems and underused software contribute significantly to a company’s overall costs. What’s more, the payment plans a firm has adopted aren’t always cost-efficient and can be easily and quickly updated and optimized (e.g., pay per use vs. monthly subscription models). We categorize the technology available to you, identify existing technological limitations, and derive recommendations for the design of your IT infrastructure. If you go through all the steps, from analyzing your CRM to improving your offer management, you can eliminate outdated IT systems and align your IT infrastructure to save costs and streamline your setup.
