Company Overview

CloudForge Systems is a B2B SaaS company that provides DevOps automation and CI/CD orchestration software for enterprise engineering teams. Their platform helps organizations streamline software deployment, improve release velocity, and reduce infrastructure bottlenecks across cloud environments.

The company primarily targets:

  • CTOs
  • VP of Engineering
  • DevOps Managers
  • Platform Engineering Teams
  • Enterprise IT Leaders

Despite having a strong product and experienced sales team, CloudForge Systems struggled to generate consistent, high-quality inbound leads from paid advertising channels.

That’s when they partnered with Tech Ad.

The Challenge

Before working with Tech Ad, CloudForge Systems faced several growth obstacles:

Poor Lead Quality

Most paid leads came from small businesses and developers outside their ideal enterprise customer profile.

Expensive Cost Per Acquisition

Their Google Ads campaigns generated clicks, but demo requests were inconsistent and costly.

Low Landing Page Conversion Rates

Traffic reached product pages designed for technical users instead of conversion-focused landing pages.

Weak Attribution Tracking

The company lacked proper visibility into:

  • SQLs
  • Pipeline contribution
  • Closed-won revenue
  • Multi-touch attribution

Inefficient Campaign Structure

Their account suffered from:

  • Broad targeting
  • Generic messaging
  • Limited audience segmentation
  • No account-based targeting strategy
