Case Study: Creating a Fully Integrated, Data-Driven Lead Generation System

Through end-to-end system analysis, competitive research, and internal interviews, I developed a custom multi-channel lead generation framework that streamlined outbound efforts, optimized sales efficiency, and positioned the company as a dominant local alternative to national competitors.
