Case Study:
From Fragmented Messaging to a Unified Buyer Journey

Company: Hexagon 

Project: Buyer Journey

Disjointed messaging across GTM teams was confusing buyers and hurting conversion. I aligned teams around a single messaging framework by mapping the buyer journey and linking pain points, solutions, and differentiators.

"It’s rare to find someone who can navigate high-level strategy while simultaneously handling the technical execution, but Michelle does exactly that. She has a deep, intuitive understanding of the buyer’s journey, ensuring that systems and strategy actually play nice together to drive results."

Situation: Multiple GTM teams were creating content independently, producing inconsistent emails, campaigns, and sales materials. Buyers received conflicting information, lowering conversion and weakening brand perception.

Objective: Create a cohesive messaging framework that unifies GTM communications, aligns marketing and sales, and ensures the right message reaches the right person at the right time, clarifying value at every stage of the buyer journey.

Actions:

  • Facilitated a buyer journey workshop with Product and Campaign Managers to align on audience needs, messaging gaps, and priorities.
  • Refined key personas and mapped how their needs and priorities change across the buyer journey.
  • Built a unified messaging framework linking each persona’s pain points to solutions and decision criteria.
  • Designed workflows to deliver the right message to the right person at the right time, automating updates to email sequences, digital campaigns, and sales outreach.
  • Launched multiple ABM campaigns based on the new buyer journey and messaging framework.
Before: Multiple Messages, No Unified Narrative
After: A Single, Aligned Story

Results:

  • GTM team alignment achieved in 6 weeks.
  • Reduced content creation redundancy, saving hours monthly.
  • Sales leadership reported more effective prospect conversations.
  • Aligned ABM campaigns outperformed previous efforts. (See case study below)

Accelerating Enterprise Growth with ABM

Moving from SMB to enterprise required a complete reset of the go-to-market approach. This case study shows how I built an ABM program aligned to a distinct enterprise buying journey, designed to engage the right accounts earlier and support longer, more complex buying cycles.

From Intent to Opportunity: ABM in Action

Faced with a massive account list and a limited ABM budget, we rethought the strategy entirely. This case study shows how intent-driven account selection and journey-based messaging delivered stronger engagement, deeper account penetration, and better efficiency than prior campaigns—proving precision beats scale.
