Lean-Agile Sales and Marketing
After a product or software is developed, a company is tasked with selling and marketing that product, software, or solution. Many organizations invest heavily in marketing campaigns, but this causes too much overhead and may not yield a profitable return on investment. A focus on identifying your customers needs and aligning your sales and marketing to those needs is key to an agile marketing mindset.

By identifying your unique sales proposition, eliciting constant feedback from all stakeholders, following the data, and applying the correct technologies to target trends in the market, companies can now deliver faster and more consistent value to the customers, while reducing the risks of traditional sales and marketing. The model relies on realistic short term goals, flexibility, iteration of processes, data tracking, and continuous improvement. Allow The i4 Group to help you leverage your data, create motivated self-organizing teams, and deliver value to meet your sales goals.
Agile Manifesto Principles
The i4 Group is guided by Agile Manifesto Principles:
- Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
- Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage.
- Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale.
- Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
- Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
- The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation.
- Working software is the primary measure of progress
- Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
- Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
- Simplicity--the art of maximizing the amount of work not done--is essential.
- The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.
- At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
