Healthcare Technology Testimonial:
“As
a growing company delivering a new kind of behavior therapy solution to the healthcare market, it is critical that we understand
who we are selling to and why. Sherri took on the task of focusing us in on several different market segments to determine
the unique needs of each one and to prioritize our marketing efforts to these segments.
Sherri’s research
enabled us to climb into the minds of our customers so we could clearly understand the benefits of our solutions and more
importantly the potential barriers to adoption, from their perspective.
Sherri not only helped us capture needed
insight but also interpret this information to recommend the direction for our product, partner and marketing plans. Working
closely with Sherri on this important strategic initiative, we found that she was thorough and enjoyable to work with.”
