Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission describes 'Acclivity Agency,' a legitimate boutique B2B marketing firm for the manufacturing and IoT sectors. However, the submission data is of extremely low quality, containing factually incorrect and non-serious claims (e.g., audience reach is 'everyone', traction is 'most people have used my product'). While the agency exists, it is a small service business, not a scalable technology product. The score is heavily penalized for false claims and lack of verifiable metrics.

Project Details

Description
The Acclivity team is made up of a collection of experienced digital marketers with a passion for analytics and results. Acclivity was spun out of a boutique consultancy after growth and demand for revenue-driven marketing services for the manufacturing, engineering, I0T, and innovative technology spaces increased. Our approach is based upon account-based and content marketing strategies paired with relationship building among industry analysts and niche industry media outlets. At Acclivity we believe marketing and sales should share a common goal and be able to articulate progress towards that goal to the C-suite at any time.
