Key Results from Using Belel
About About WeWork
WeWork stands out to most as the leading company in the coworking spaces industry.
In order to maintain their reign at the forefront in the world of coworking, WeWork needed to expand and diversify their portfolio. This move forwards resulted in the launching of WeWork Labs.
WeWork Labs assembles a global group of early-stage start-ups and provides a range of benefits including; mentorship, education alongside WeWorkâs agile workspaces to effectively function as a business incubator or a start-up accelerator that are solely committed to helping start-ups achieve their goals.
The way lead generation used to be
WeWork Labs did most of its communication through newsletters and in-app notifications. The team would write a compelling piece of copy, add a CTA (usually in the form of a button) that would then link to either a landing page or an event sign-up page.
This was the way lead generation worked for WeWork Labs until they decided to switch up their strategy and use video as their new sales enablement tool.
The new enablement strategy
In order to increase sign-ups for WeWork Labs, the team decided to use video messages in their emails. They also reached out to people on LinkedIn who might be interested in their new podcast studios for rent.
By using video, they were able to personalize their pitch and create a more engaging experience for potential members.
Why WeWork Labs chose Belel
WeWork Labs' primary goal of utilizing Belel was to contact members such as founders, workers, and investors from existing start-ups and firms to inquire about them becoming mentors and leaders for others in the WeWork Labs organization. Belel is the easiest way to get started with an effective video strategy.
