RainFcous wouldn’t be where we are today without OpFocus’ strategic guidance and expertise. We now have a scalable revenue machine that enforces our vision as a business while providing clarity about our performance.


BURLINGTON, Mass. (PRWEB)

OpFocus, a leading Salesforce implementation consultancy for SaaS companies, today announced that RainFocus engaged it to build a new sales and marketing system. By implementing the SiriusDecisions Demand Unit Waterfall within Salesforce, and integrating it with Pardot and Terminus, OpFocus helped the events marketing company accelerate strategic growth. RainFocus’ sales and marketing teams are fully aligned on target accounts and processes. The company achieved 135 percent contracted annual recurring revenue (CARR) growth and 140 percent net customer retention.

“OpFocus helped us envision and deliver our dream state. We wouldn’t be where we are today without their strategic guidance and expertise,” said Brian Gates, Senior VP of Marketing and Strategy, RainFocus. “OpFocus’ development, sales, and marketing expertise were instrumental to our success. We now have a scalable revenue machine that enforces our vision as a business while providing clarity about our performance. Our Salesforce-based system has allowed us to forecast, plan, and manage our business to drive phenomenal growth.”

As a startup, RainFocus didn’t have sales and marketing systems or processes. The information they used to drive their business was mostly in employees’ heads. They identified prospects through referrals and prior relationships. They didn’t have insights into what was coming down the pike. To help them grow, RainFocus engaged OpFocus, and realized remarkable benefits:

Achieved Record-Breaking Growth

RainFocus realized a 135 percent CARR growth. Gates reported, “We had grand assumptions that our new approach and system would yield better-than-expected sales results. But we didn’t expect such amazing results. Last year, we hit our revenue goals in June – halfway through the year.”

Fueled Customer Retention and Expansion

RainFocus’ Salesforce-based solution makes it easy to align marketing and sales, even as they add personnel. RainFocus has clarity into its entire sales and marketing funnel. They inspect their business through this lens. If the funnel isn’t performing, they pinpoint trouble spots and adjust as needed. This helped RainFocus achieve 140 percent net customer retention. Customers not only stayed with RainFocus. They expanded their relationships and bought additional products.

Successfully Pivoted to Meet Evolving Business Climate

RainFocus can be proactive in pivoting their business to where market conditions require. For instance, physical events are not an option now due to COVID-19. But thanks to the visibility Salesforce enables, and the relationships RainFocus built with customers, RainFocus was able to quickly add virtual event delivery to their products and pinpoint accounts that would be receptive to the new offering.

Eased Sales Team Forecasting and Onboarding

RainFocus uses the data it has about current and future accounts to inform sales hiring plans. It’s now easier to bring on new sales representatives. And it takes less time to get them to full capacity.

Streamlined Communications with Board of Directors

RainFocus’ sales/marketing alignment and newfound visibility make reporting back to the board simpler. That’s because it’s much easier to understand opportunities, how marketing fared in pulling them into the funnel, and how sales did in closing them.

“We were very fortunate to work with RainFocus at such a critical stage in their business. They had the foresight to do what few emerging companies do: align sales and marketing, and develop a controlled growth plan,” said David Carnes, Founder and CEO of OpFocus. “It was extremely gratifying to help RainFocus put their strategic plan into action and enable such extraordinary results.”

Messaging Architects Shares New Reasons to Migrate to Microsoft 365 in a COVID-19 World

Leave a comment


Reasons to Migrate to Microsoft 365

COVID-19 has changed how and where we work. The old paradigms of conference room collaboration, watercooler discussions and packed auditorium training and announcements are giving way to virus safety concerns.


HOBOKEN, N.J. (PRWEB)

Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and email migration expert, presents three increasingly important reasons to migrate to Microsoft 365 in a new article on the Messaging Architects website.

After discussing four standard reasons, the informative article offers Business-Grade Video Conferencing as the first new reason. The author continues by citing Teams Live Events and Dependable Security and Privacy as additional compelling reasons to migrate to Microsoft 365.

“COVID-19 has changed how and where we work,” stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. “The old paradigms of conference room collaboration, watercooler discussions and packed auditorium training and announcements are giving way to virus safety concerns.”

Below are a few excerpts from the article, “New Reasons to Migrate to Microsoft 365.”

Business-Grade Video Conferencing

“Online meetings help to bridge the gap created by WFH policies, bringing team members into a virtual conference room. Because much of communication depends on nonverbal cues, video conferencing boosts engagement and improves morale.”

Teams Live Events

“Microsoft Teams Live Events makes the perfect medium for communicating important pandemic policy information to a dispersed working force. An extension of Teams Meetings, Live Events provides a powerful tool for executives and HR trainers to broadcast video and meeting content to an event-sized online audience.”

Dependable Security and Privacy

“With concerns surfacing over the security of Zoom video conferencing, the security and privacy controls in Microsoft 365 yield peace of mind rather than unwanted intrusions. For example, Microsoft provides for conditional access policies that require multi-factor authentication for risky situations.”

Migrate Now to Microsoft 365

The current business environment combined with its powerful available features provide plenty of reasons to migrate to Microsoft 365. When business leaders need to quickly master Microsoft 365 virtual meetings, Live Events or email options, they tap into the expertise of the consultants at Messaging Architects. They help migrate and configure Microsoft 365 systems properly to ensure maximum privacy, security and productivity.

Virtual Data Room Provider Firmex Publishes Fourth Annual Report on M&A Advisory Fees in the Middle Market

Leave a comment



TORONTO (PRWEB)

Firmex, a global provider of virtual data room and secure document sharing solutions used by more than 140,000 companies worldwide, today announced the publication of its fourth annual report on M&A fees. M&A Fee Guide 2020 is the authoritative source on M&A fees for sell-side engagements in the middle market. The fee guide serves as a reference point for both M&A advisors and business owners on the pricing of fees.

“We’re proud to publish the 2020 edition of our annual fee guide, which continues to be an indispensable resource for the pricing of M&A advisory fees on midmarket deals. Our goal in publishing this guide is to make the discussion of fees between M&A advisors and their clients more accessible by presenting the state of M&A advisory fees and how they’re charged,” said Mark Wright, Chief Marketing Officer at Firmex. “Though our survey data was collected prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that as the economy recovers, this guide will be of great help to M&A advisors and business owners alike, as it has been in previous years.”

Using data gathered from a survey of midmarket dealmakers, the guide highlights key points of interest on M&A fees, shared across geographies and deal sizes. The findings in M&A Fee Guide 2020 are also presented with featured commentary from M&A experts at Bowen Advisors, ATRIUM Partners, and MidCap Alliance, sharing their views on how the data matches up with their professional experience.

Key Highlights

When asked to identify where M&A professionals add the most value in sell-side engagements, 68% identified their value in managing the sales process, followed by 59% indicating the sourcing of buyers.

In an engagement letter setting out the terms and conditions for the client-firm relationship, only 40% of M&A professionals include a break fee if the client declines an offer.

43% of M&A professionals say they use a simple percentage to structure their success fees on sell-side engagements, while only 18% used a Lehman formula or close variant.

M&A advisors and business owners will learn surprising insights on the expectations, negotiations, structuring, and associated practices surrounding M&A fees. By reading the guide, M&A advisors and their clients can have more transparent conversations on advisory fees and how they’re charged, to better align expectations for compensation on the deal.

Avision Begins No-Contact Drone Delivery of Medical Supplies in Silicon Valley

Leave a comment



SANTA MONICA, Calif. (PRWEB)

Over the last few weeks, Avision has been working with drone pilots in San Mateo county in testing contactless delivery of face masks and other essential items. While many states have issued mandatory facial protection policies and acquiring critical supplies can create undue risk, the company is helping residents cope with the crisis and comply with government regulations.

Delivery operations are conducted under FAA Part 107 regulations by certified remote pilots. Mission planning, airspace authorization, and flight execution are managed by the Avision App. The off-the-shelf drone is fitted with an air drop system, while release control is programmed into the Avision flight platform. The drone takes off from a predefined location via an automated waypoint mission, flies to the front or back yard, lowers into the marked location, automatically releases the package, and returns to the launch base via the same flight path.

“Avision demonstrates a fully integrated out-of-the-box solution for last-mile logistics. For additional safety and operational visibility, we utilize Avision UTM. UTM technology will unlock the ability to more readily launch complex drone operations including beyond visual line of sight. Seeing the system in action, I am excited about the potential of autonomous drone delivery, even if we start with small lightweight goods” – says Stan Khlevner, CEO of Dive Delivery and FAA certified remote pilot.

“Today, we announce a major platform update for professional pilots – a new method of automated delivery with integrated air drop capabilities. Avision iOS and Android App updates are being rolled out to the marketplace. We are excited to support our communities and welcome FAA certified Part 107 pilots to create an account on the Avision website and take advantage of the offering” – says Jim Broniec, VP Business Development at Avision.

About Avision:

Avision is a leading provider of airspace and flight management technology for the global drone industry. The company is an FAA approved USS (UAS service supplier) for LAANC (low altitude authorization and notification capability) powering real-time digital flight authorizations in controlled airspace. In partnership with NASA, Avision UTM (unmanned traffic management) system enables advanced air mobility. The company is backed by 500 Startups and based in Santa Monica, CA.

Reuse CAD data with a more accurate clash detection, new search features and merge objects

Leave a comment



SACRAMENTO, Calif. (PRWEB)

KISTERS North America has released version 2020.0 of its 3DViewStation product family. The new version features additions and enhancements that assist users in the area of repurposing their CAD data. For instance: V2020.0’s new neighborhood search features, the option to merge selected objects to a single one, a faster, more accurate clash detection and the ability to semantically search PMI. KISTERS provides visualization applications for the Windows desktop, web (via any HTML5 browser) as well as a VR edition.

One frustrating area in the reuse of CAD data can present itself when 2D drawings contain a set of fonts that are typically not included with the drawing file, but, will need to be installed on the local system in order to render the drawing correctly.

“KISTERS’ development and enhancements always follow a customer-centric approach. After reviewing our customer’s most important requirements for 2D drawings, we created 2D font substitution via a customizable table,” said Kelly Baumann, KISTERS North America Business Development Manager. “At this point in time, we allow the user to substitute all fonts to a configurable, single one. 3DViewStation will now prompt, if one or several fonts could not be found and it allows the user to maintain a font substitution table – assigning different fonts to each one that was not able to be located.”

One major focus of development was to increase the value of 3DViewStation’s clash detection function. “We did a complete redesign of our clash. Enjoy: much faster performance, many more options to calculate values of interest and a much more satisfying display of results,” she added. “We believe that, in addition to performance speed, an intuitive and attractive user interface is truly the key to user acceptance and the key to preventing staff from reverting to legacy methods and habits. 3DViewStation v2020.0 introduces a fresh new set of easily applied color schemes. In addition, users can now change the color of render wires on a model by changing from the default black color to a variety of color options.”

“For further ease-of-use in V2020.0, we have added a new option, which allows users to select several subassemblies inside the structure tree and it then allows for the merging of each sub-tree to a single object – resulting in a reduced number of nodes. This might simplify the future processing of an assembly for our customers, re-selecting a merged group of objects instead of individual parts for clash detection,” Baumann stated.

Known for its modern user-interface, high performance viewing, advanced analysis and integration capabilities into leading systems, 3DViewStation ships with current and mature importers for a broad range of 3D and 2D formats including i.e. Catia, NX, Creo, SolidWorks, SolidEdge, Inventor, JT, 3D-PDF, STEP, DWG, DXF, DWF, MS Office and many more.

V2020.0 Upgrades Include:

New and updated file formats:

  • Import 3D: NX 1899, Parasolid 32, Revit 2020, Revit reading performance improvement

  • Import 2D: CATIA: V5-6R2020 (R30), NX: 1899, 1903, 1904, 1907

New and updated functions:

  • Fresh UI layout with several color schemes

  • Supports the evaluation processes of our customers:Located in the application settings, there are now options to select UI configurations according to available optional modules

  • Faster launch of 3DViewStation Desktop

  • Neighborhood search (Linear, Box Trap) (neighborhood search available since v2019.1)

  • Edge color (wire) is customizable, several options

  • Merge objects: merge all selected objects to a single one or to several by selected sub-assembly

  • Re-design of clash detection: much faster and more accurate; calculation of intersection curves, penetration depth and volume; more display options, better presentation of results

  • Font recognition and replacement for 2D drawings (advanced 2D file formats only)

  • “Filter” has been renamed to: “Search”

  • Searching Semantic PMI has been added

  • Introduction of a status bar, information available for display will grow over time

  • Discontinuations: we eliminated HiCAD file format support; we eliminated 32-bit 3DViewStation Desktop version

The latest developments of 3DViewStation can be reviewed in more detail at: https://www.3dviewstation.com/blog.html.

According to Baumann, the KISTERS 3DViewStation is continuously enhanced in response to customer needs and requirements. It is available as Desktop, ActiveX, VR-Edition and HTML5 WebViewer product-versions. All product flavors are intended to be used together with a PLM, ERP or other management system product configuration or service and spare part applications, providing all necessary APIs. For cloud, portal and web-solutions, there is an HTML5-based WebViewer solution available, which does not require client installation. All file formats can be used in combination with the intelligent navigation and hyperlinking features to address needs of complex integration scenarios.

About KISTERS

25 years success in the market with superior visualization solutions from desktop to mobile has proven KISTERS to be one of the top players in the visualization industry. Clients ranging from small firms to well-known multinationals, 3DViewStation’s easy-to-use interface is suitable for all user groups and 100% customizable to each individual’s specific requirements.
