Marketing Software Vendor, SalesFUSION Announces Results for Q1-2011; Shows 100% Growth in Customer Acquisition Over Q1-2010

ATLANTA, GA, May 02, 2011 (Press-News.org) SalesFUSION , the maker of SalesFUSION 360, an integrated sales and marketing demand generation platform, today announced its sales results for First Quarter, 2011. The results for Q1 showed a 100% growth in new customer acquisition over the same period for 2010.

SalesFUSION signed nearly 40 new clients in the January-March period for 2011. Said Kevin Miller, EVP Marketing and Sales for SalesFUSION; "This was a strong Q1 for us. We expected to double the amount of clients we brought in during Q1 of 2010 and we hit that mark right on. The results from Q1 show a consistent growth curve for us over the last 18 months wherein we are adding more clients each quarter than the last. Our targets for the year have us at over 300 clients, excluding partners, and fully expect to hit that number based on what we're seeing early on. We're especially proud of the retention rate of our existing client base, which is holding steady at 95% and the fact that we are achieving our results without having taken any outside funding to date".

SalesFUSION's customer acquisitions for Q1-2011 included a diverse group of market verticals including healthcare technology, business services, media, manufacturing and financial services. In addition to customer signings, SalesFUSION released its new 6.0 platform, pre-packaged integration with Saleslogix/Sage CRM and Sugar CRM and moved to a Rapid Release schedule for product enhancements. The rapid release program is primarily designed to keep pace with the rapidly changing needs of its growing client base. The rapid release cycle enables SalesFUSION to more quickly respond to product ideas from its clients.

On growth and the direction of the market, Miller stated; "The growth for b2b marketing automation should hold very steady over the next 24 months. Companies of all sizes can benefit from integrated marketing automation software. Up until the last year or so, many vendors priced the SMB and Mid-Market companies out of this space. As a company, we wanted to shake the pricing up a bit and enable companies of all sizes to leverage this awesome technology. Our MarketingUnlimited programs have been a raving success and have played a direct role in our ability to grow quickly and organically."

SalesFUSION's pricing model is based on 6-Contact/Lead database size tiers. The pricing ranges from $450 to $5000 per month to accommodate both SMB and Enterprise-level accounts.
