The Client
The Client is a leading logistics automation firm that offers autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for warehouse fulfillment operations. These robots collaborate with human workers to enhance efficiency and productivity in warehouses and distribution centers. Its unique multi-bot approach increases productivity by ensuring order accuracy fulfillment and eliminating unproductive walking time.
The Client is involved in creating revolutionary handling robots that are designed, developed, and marketed by them. Utilizing their proprietary navigation technology, these robots can operate independently and transform regular forklift trucks into intelligent machines that can work alongside human operators. The Client’s technological breakthrough allows fleets of robots to navigate within warehouses or factories without requiring additional infrastructure.
Utilizing the Client’s autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), optimizing warehouse operations, managing e-commerce volume growth and seasonal peaks, and retaining control over labor costs are all possible.
By taking on the task of traveling, the Client allows workers to focus on other tasks that require their attention, making them more productive. This, in turn, results in faster cycle times, improved ergonomics, better worker safety, and an overall better quality of work environment.
The Challenge
Technological innovation is believed to be the key to achieving business success. However, the Client has this distinctive notion that robots should not take the place of humans in the workplace. For them, the key is not to replace humans with machines but rather to promote collaborative efforts between the two in order to yield more efficient and productive outcomes.
This is the reason why the Client designs products, AMRs in this case, to promote the collaboration between employees and automation and to boost productivity, proficiency, and precision.
In an attempt to promote this idea to their target audience, The Client planned a marketing campaign but realized that their in-house team lacked the necessary knowledge, skill set, resources, and tools.
Budget constraints were looming, but the Client thought that investing in efficient lead generation efforts was a worthwhile expense. With professional assistance, they aim to hit their targets, reach their goals, and gain profit the sure way.
Driven by these goals, the Client decided to outsource to a lead generation services provider that employs multi-touch, multi-channel approach. Callbox was the Client’s foremost preference.
