The Challenge

Merrild Lavazza was looking for new ways to generate leads. With a small marketing department, they didn't have the resources to staff a website conversation themselves, but theyknew their website traffic contained potential B2B customers who were leaving without making contact.

They chose to implement Weply's managed lead conversion service as a new channel to capture those enquiries.

The results

With Weply on their website, Merrild Lavazza gained another channel to receive customer enquiries and leads, without adding to their internal workload. Since they have a small marketing department, it has made a significant difference to have external support handling enquiries while still providing a quality service through every conversation.

Merrild Lavazza now has an external service ensuring they are available online 24/7 for their customers. They find they have more time for their core work tasks because more enquiries are handled directly on the website. Weply's agents handle conversations around the clock. Something that was otherwise not possible for a small team like theirs.

What Weply provided

What we believe, and what we've built because of it.

A lead channel a small team couldn't build alone

A lead channel a small team couldn't build alone

Merrild Lavazza's marketing team is small. Staffing a 24/7 website conversation internally was never realistic. Weply gave them a fully managed lead generation channel without requiring internal resource. The equivalent of a full-time team they didn't need to hire.

More than one in five conversations on Merrild Lavazza's website become qualified B2B leads. Potential customers for office, hotel, café, and restaurant coffee solutions, delivered directly to the sales team.

46% of leads outside office hours

46% of leads outside office hours

Nearly half of all qualified leads arrive when the marketing team has gone home. B2B decision-makers researching coffee solutions for their business don't keep to office hours, and with Weply, neither does Merrild Lavazza.

More time for core work

More time for core work

With Weply handling website enquiries, the marketing team can focus on strategy, campaigns, and brand work instead of managing incoming conversations. The enquiries that matter still reach the right people, just without consuming their day.

Weply is a great solution for companies like ours that don't have the resources to manage a live chat in-house
