POGO

Golf courses / Soil agronomy / SaaS / Environmental monitoring

POGO is a division of Stevens who adapted their market-leading soil sensor technology into a portable sensor product for the golf market. After about a year into this venture we were brought on board to completely rebrand the division, develop new messaging and a slick eCommerce website and run all marketing for the next 5 years.

The Monkeys have been a resource for several years that I have learned to depend on, trust and respect for their professionalism. They have been integral in helping us develop a brand that is now a staple in the turfgrass industry. Everything that was produced for us, from videos, to websites to trade show displays, was consistently professional and top-notch.

Messaging/copywriting

Early in our multi-year contract with POGO, as part of the creation of a new POGO brand, we developed a complete messaging framework.

Branding

Product Manuals

In addition to developing all graphic design and messaging for marketing collateral, we created most customer-facing product documentation including manuals, quick-start guides and setup sheets.

Management Reporting

As the in-house, outsourced marketing department, we regularly analyzed and presented reports on the previous quarter/year performance to the management team.

App Design

We designed the smartphone app UI/UX, illustrated how it's used, and created a way to effectively demonstrate it at tradeshows using a 42" touchscreen mounted vertically on a stand to simulate a giant smartphone.

Brochures and Sales Collateral

Sales brochures were important for use at tradeshows and for use by the sales team, who held in-person meetings throughout the year. We created brochures for every POGO product, revising them continually, and printing batches of 200-500 at a time.

Case Studies

Several case studies were developed to showcase how customers have utilized POGO products to achieve their business goals. They were distributed through tradeshows, the website and social media in video and print (or downloadable PDF) form.

Eric and his team developed messaging, devised, managed and executed marketing strategies, and handled all aspects of our marketing efforts, essentially becoming an off-site member of our management team. In the 4 years since we hired them, our revenues have grown consistently year over year, with our latest advances exceeding 40% over the previous year.

Website & eCommerce

The POGO website uses clever animations to illustrate the features and benefits of hardware and software products. The integrated eCommerce store allowed customers to purchase products, upgrades and subscriptions.

Tradeshows

We designed, planned and managed all marketing and helped exhibit at the yearly GIS (Golf Industry Show), which is the largest golf conference in the world. This is an early booth design (sub-$5000) shown during setup.

This mockup shows a later 20' x 40' booth design which included a 9' x 19' golf green that allowed customers to try out the product in real turf.
