Startups and small businesses often face a critical and often overwhelming challenge: reaching the right customer audience in a rapidly changing and highly competitive market. With evolving company strategies, scarce resources, and shifting market dynamics, he businesses frequently struggle to execute, let alone even get started with an effective marketing drive that would build demand and yield high-value sales leads for increasing revenue.

Dan Zaretsky, the visionary founder of Pravici, a startup that set out to revolutionize customer loyalty programs with innovative solutions. Initially focused on CRM and loyalty consulting, Pravici faced significant challenges during the economic downturn of the early 2000s, leading to a drastic revenue decline. In response, Dan pivoted the business towards blockchain technology and later toward employee Rewards and Recognition management, creating a SaaS platform designed to boost employee happiness, productivity, and engagement.

Despite these innovative and strategic shifts, Pravici struggled to gain traction, especially in the highly competitive market of small and medium-sized businesses with employees operating in remote and hybrid work environments.

The High Cost of Ineffective Marketing Strategies

Pravici’s Rewards and Recognition (RnR) platform promised to help companies better connect and engage with their employees, addressing critical issues like disengagement and retention. However, despite the substantial market opportunity, Pravici’s attempts to build demand and to reach the right customer audience were falling short faltering.

Dan invested heavily in traditional marketing agencies and typical strategies, spending $60,000 on an agency and $70,000 on a full-time marketing resource over six months. Unfortunately, these efforts had little to no impact on building any sales pipeline, leaving Dan and his team frustrated and concerned about the return on investment. Traditional networking approaches, such as attending meetups and conventions, also failed to generate the necessary sales leads.

Pravici needed a cost-effective, comprehensive marketing solution—one that could deliver results without depleting their resources. This led them to MarketEngine.

Dan’s breakthrough came when a colleague attended a Digital Marketing webinar and introduced him to MarketEngine. Intrigued by their Marketing-as-a-Service approach, Dan decided to partner with MarketEngine, marking the start of a transformative journey for Pravici.
