Award winning global sourcing advisory and benchmarking firm, Alsbridge, Inc., continues to shake up the sleepy IT benchmarking industry with the re-launch of its popular freeBENCHMARK.com marketing campaign.
Alsbridge’s
patented parametric modeling engine, ProBenchmark, enables the company to
deliver a better, faster, lower cost IT benchmark. To draw attention to the fact that they’ve
redefined IT benchmarking, Alsbridge is giving away thousands of free pizzas
and one free benchmark this month.
“A radical
service requires radical marketing,” states Alsbridge Founder and CEO, Ben
Trowbridge. “freeBENCHMARK.com
is a game changer because it enables companies that currently cannot afford a
benchmark to buy one, and enables companies that currently benchmark to more
easily gather critical information,” Trowbridge explains.
According to
Trowbridge the IT benchmarking industry has been controlled by industry giants
“who for decades have done business the same old way, using a tired, expensive
and drawn out process,” Trowbridge says.
“Alsbridge’s
benchmarking service is more accurate than the industry standard because it
eliminates human error and subjectivity and shortens the process from months to
weeks, at 70 percent below the current market cost,” adds Trowbridge.
The
unconventional campaign and video
takes a humorous stab at the slow moving IT benchmarking industry and promotes Alsbridge’s
faster, data-centric benchmarking service.
