Overview
Science is all about precision, and so is selling at least, that’s what Andie Davis at Cell Signaling Technology (CST) discovered. Founded by research scientists in 1999, CST is a private, family-owned company that operates more like a research institute, developing high-quality products for scientists worldwide. Specializing in applied systems biology research, particularly in cancer studies, CST ensures that every antibody they produce meets the highest validation standards.
But when it came to their sales and marketing efforts, finding the right prospects wasn’t as precise. The data they relied on was incomplete, forcing their teams to spend more time researching than engaging with the right people. That’s where SalesIntel came in.
The Challenge
CST didn’t need more leads. They needed better leads.
Their previous data providers delivered contacts but not the complete story. Gaps in Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) coverage left the sales and marketing teams playing detective: hunting down missing titles, chasing ghost accounts, and piecing together fragments of insight like a puzzle with half the pieces gone.
It wasn’t just slow. It was misdirected.
- Accounts looked promising on paper, but weren’t in-market.
- Manual research consumed time that could’ve gone into meaningful outreach.
- Competitive targeting lacked teeth without clear technographic context.
CST needed to flip the script, and fast.
