Processes employed:

Budget for marketing. The President, Peter de Bruyn Kops, sustained an M/E Ratio of 1, investing heavily in marketing along with technology development. Acugen determined the benefits that mattered to customers.
Invest in developing a selling motion. Technical superiority alone utterly failed to gain sales or market share.
Automate the selling PROCESS. Acugen developed and automated a 28-step selling cycle.
