Introduction The sheer thought of launching capital and fame raising SaaS startup seems to be a deep abyss. But for those who have tried their hands at it, the reality can be a lot grimmer. This was the case with Animus, a B2B Europe SaaS project management tool LLC. Most folks featured on the SaaS subreddit claim to know the pain of a product with value but no real means of marketing, paired with developers who can scale but know marketing lingo as well as a toddler knows their alphabet, and the resulting growth stagnation paid to the low organic traffic. This is where Zenith Point enters the frame, with deep digital marketing tailored for SaaS and content building for SEO. This brief tells how we assisted Animus fuel their growth big time while still being frugal; a dream that many SaaS entrepreneurs seem to have according to Reddit threads. The Client: Animus (Anonymized) What does Animus do? Animus created a lightweight, easily automatable SaaS project management system aimed at small and medium B2B teams throughout Europe. They presented a new approach by providing an assistive, intelligent workflow engine that automates primary task repetition in project management. Buyer Persona Fit Their ideal users were aligned with r/SaaS-type founders and executives: The Challenges Animus had an exceptional product but still was a victim to the common SaaS growth obstacles: 1. Low Organic Visibility Most efforts were directed to cold communication and PPC advertisements. With the capitalization that was in place, CAC was not manageable. 2. Technical SEO Problems 3. Lackluster Content Marketing Animus held a blog, but it was more product-centered when it should have been more customer-centered. Very few articles attempted to solve a buyer’s frustration, like “how to reduce churn in SaaS teams” or “how to use automation in project management.” 4. Absence of a Backlinking Plan The domain authority was lower, making it more difficult to rank for the more competitive terms in the SaaS-related searches. 5. Minimal Impact from Social Media Marketing Their social accounts resembled product announcement pages more than anything, and the lack of engagement was appalling.
