The challenge

Before implementing Leadfeeder by Dealfront, ZenDev faced challenges in identifying high-quality leads and engaging with the right decision-makers. Their sales and marketing teams relied on various tracking tools like Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, which provided user behavior insights but failed to connect those interactions to actual companies or stakeholders.

This gap made it difficult for ZenDev to validate sales team insights with concrete data. While sales representatives shared valuable firsthand knowledge from meetings in the field, the marketing team lacked a way to confirm these hypotheses with accurate website visitor data. Where did that leave the team? Uncertain about which businesses were really interested, with inefficient lead nurturing, and missing opportunities to target key decision-makers effectively.

ZenDev needed a data-driven solution that could bridge the gap between website traffic insights and actionable lead information, allowing them to create more precise marketing strategies and enhance their sales outreach.

"The only reason I wouldn’t recommend Dealfront is because I wouldn’t want my competitors using it." — Angela Covic, Head of Marketing @ ZenDev

The solution

Dealfront's Leadfeeder solution revolutionized ZenDev’s lead generation and sales process by providing clear visibility into which companies were visiting their website and what content they were engaging with. This allowed ZenDev to move beyond generic website analytics and directly connect visitor activity to real decision-makers.

With Leadfeeder, the marketing team could flag key prospects based on their interactions, such as visiting the e-commerce integration page, and immediately notify sales with specific insights. This allowed their sales representatives to tailor their outreach and demonstrate a deep understanding of the prospect’s pain points, which significantly improved their engagement and conversion rates.

The platform also streamlined internal workflows. Instead of relying on scattered messages across multiple tools, marketing and sales teams could assign and track leads within a single platform, ensuring smooth communication and faster follow-ups. Leadfeeder became ZenDev’s central source of truth for lead tracking, attribution, and campaign performance, enhancing both marketing strategy and sales execution.

From sales to marketing and paid advertising, Dealfront’s solution proved invaluable across the organization.

"The process is so much smoother now—leads are assigned within the platform, and sales and marketing are always aligned. There’s no need to send messages across multiple tools; everything happens in one place." – Anđela Čović, Head of Marketing, ZenDev

In summary

By integrating Dealfront into their sales and marketing workflows, ZenDev has transformed the way they identify, engage, and convert potential clients. What was once a guessing game is now a precise, data-driven approach to lead generation and outreach.

For B2B companies, especially those in software development, where sales cycles can be long and complex, the ability to connect with decision-makers based on real-time interest signals is a game-changer. With Dealfront, ZenDev’s teams are no longer chasing cold leads, but are now starting conversations at the right time, with the right insights, and seeing results faster than ever.

As Angela Covic, Head of Marketing at ZenDev, puts it:

“Dealfront has given us that crucial missing piece in our marketing puzzle. We went from having solid analytics data to actually knowing which companies are exploring our services and what they care about. The real magic is when I can tell our sales team, ‘These three decision-makers at Company X spent 20 minutes on our staff augmentation pages yesterday’—that's when conversations get real and deals move forward faster.”
