COST of 1 NEW customerHow much does it cost to generate 1 single SAP HANA Customer.

Just coming back from Sapphire and this question did not result in any rational answer. So lets get down to basics.

CAC: Customer Acquisition costs for getting 1 additional customer are farily large

Though we don’t have exact numbers specifically for SAP HANA, we do have fairly good estimates for SAP and IT in general.

CAC = HPSC + HMC + HSC + HTC TCA/annum

Where HPSC = HANA Presales Costs; HMC= HANA Marketing Costs; HSC – Total HANA Sales Costs including wages and bonuses; HTC= HANA Technical support Costs. TCA= Total new Customers acquitted in 1 year.

Recalling numbers from the SAP days the CAC for SAP customers with the big SI’s is anywhere from $26,000 to $64,000.

So no matter how you look at Customer Acquisition, your cost for 1 new customer has to be a minimum of $6,000 to $10,000 even for the smallest of companies.

SAP HANA Digital Marketing magic Quadrant

SALES is a number crunching game.Going by standards if you approach 100 customer around 10% will be interested in listening to your offering.

If 100 customers are willing to listen to your offering around 10% will be in a state ready to consider the option of moving SAP HANA.

If you have 100 customers that are ready to consider SAP HANA you will have around 10% that are willing to listen to your offering

If you have 100 customers that listen to your offering you will have around 10% that are willing to review you as a provider for that option

You get the gist of my message here. The key is in getting your product, solution or offering launched to enough customers so that the numbers all align in your favor.

Up until now we had sales quotas where each sales person had a specific quota and a territory that they had to accomplish in a specified period. Pretty standard.

However in according to Gartner the new world of Social Networking and Digital Marketing is now rapidly replacing traditional marketing and sales in 52% of successful companies. It is reported that traditional sales employees are limited to their physical presence and enterprise networks.

Hinspires has been launched by the SAP HANA Group and will launch on June 1st, 2016 to 27,703 SAP HANA Focused members with a personal request to leverage the social multiplier effect to 5+ of their acquaintances.

Social SellingCompanies have exceptional SAP HANA offerings and solutions and very often their potential customers do not know of their unique offerings or solutions.

There are many channels to sell your SAP HANA offerings and most of them are visualized on the quadrant to the right. On one side is the opportunity of getting on the superball promotion that has extremely high market penetration at an extremely high cost, i.e. $5 million per 30 seconds. 90% of these customers would not even know what SAP HANA is. On the other extreme is personal contacts that has the lowest penetration and lowest cost. The perfect mix would be a low cost solution, that is focused to your prospects and with a high penetration score.

Hari Guleria teamed with SAP HANA Providers in order to design a world-class Social Marketing platform that is 100% focused on SAP HANA offerings. A lot of community members said it would turn out to be too expensive and others felt it was an excellent idea.

The result of detailed design thinking sessions and prospective feedback is ‘Hinspires’.This site is projected to become the landmark real-estate for connecting SAP HANA potential customers to vendr SAP HANA solutions

SAP HANA Digital Marketing magic Quadrant

There are many ways to market your solutions1. Super Ball: You can pay $5 million and get a 100 million

views for 30 seconds. But the only result of that is whether your ad was good or bad. Monster.com launched this way.

2. Paid Programs: these can cost anywhere from %20 thousand to a few million depending on your agency and media you launch in. This is a great way to proceed but a rapidly shrinking GTM segment

3. Paid Search Auctions: For these you have to bid and set targets. Each time anyone clicks you have to pay the search engine like google a certain amount. This is usa=ually for a week or two and can range from $10 thousand to a few hundred thousands.

4. SAP Conference Booths: These are highly focused conferences and I am just returining from one and it cost three of the companies I talked to around $250,000 for the event and they collected around 400 to 500 contacts.

5. Cold Call Marketing: these are highly distributed and cold calling is mostly done without exposing the company. These can cost anywhere from $10,000 per month or unit of calls to a few hundred thousand for a planned strategy. They get a lot of hits but few conversions

6. Direct Customer sessions: these are customer visits and can cost around $3 to $5 thousand per visit of undertaken professionally. Their penetration is dependent on the source of the contact. It takes abound 3 to 5 visits prior to a decision

7. Incumbency: these are los cost but also low penetration as they are excising customers. High conversion

8. Social selling: Is today the lowest Cost and Highest penetration Sales Generator if targeted towards a focused Digital Group as Hinspires is.

Similarly Social Selling is replacing traditional selling as proven by Uber, airbnb, spiotify, Amazon, etc.. The world is dominated with social focus groups and connections. The key factors of social selling success are stickiness, trust and services.

Towards the end of 2015 the group management noticed that there were hundreds of stellar SAP HANA offerings that even our 26,000 then members did not know anything about.

We took it upon ourselves to build a bridge between the SAP HANA Solution offerings and prospective customers. To create a ‘SPOT-HANA’ (Single Point of Touch) for HANA offers to be displayed and for customers to be able to see suppliers and vendors by select categories.

7 Basic Skills for Social SellingThe future is already being defined by the Digital and Social enterprises of tomorrow. LikedIn is redefining B2B connectivity. Amazon is redfining cloud and retail, Uber is redefining cab and taxi services while airbnb the hotel industry.Gartner reports that 63% of CMO’s regard Social marketing as a top investment area yet their marketers struggle to grab social attention.

Skill 1: Move from 1-off legacy marketing programs to long term social marketing platforms. Building your own social platform can cost millions of dollars and still not guarantee success. Try to find leading focus groups in your area of interest and participate or acquire

Skill 2: Content is the level playing field that you need to start with. What is your unique offering that will attract the social community? What are your unique SAP HANA Game Changers? Why should a visitor view your content over others? According to reports social selling works best with around four pieces of content and the optimal point is eight pieces of content. For small players plan for the ideal 8 units on Hinspires for maximum benefits. For larger companies plan on 16 units.

Skill 3: Community is what social marketing is all about. Community is all about your focus area and in this e-book our focus is – SAP HANA. Also simH is the worlds largest SAP HANA Social Networking group where 100% of the member followers are professionals and influencer's in SAP HANA recommendations and decisions. Your existing communities of friends, family and colleagues have a very low sales potential. Social selling is like breakfast clubs on steroids. They are your network and sales generators like nothing before in the history of sales or marketing.

Skill 4: Connections is the foundation of all social communications and selling. LinkedIn has close to 300 million members and some of them are your connections. Leverage the ‘In-memory SAP HANA’ group’s Hinspires offering and then multiply that effect with social magnification by promoting your logo to your connections. The result is a social win-win viral effect.

Skill 5: Comment frequently. Remember social selling is not just about us it also about your company and their collective social comments and ‘Share an update’ power. Start with sharing your joining Hinspires and let the social multiplier take its logical effect. The more you comment the more you attract prospects to your logo and offerings. However, comments are only a one way conversation. Always ask a question at the end of your comment as this opens the door for a conversation.

Skill 6: Communicate and network. When the social network responds to your comments you need to converse. In a social sales opportunity what you really want is a conversation and in order to spark conversations you need to start a two-way dialog. Be original, stick to facts, be bold and generate social interests. Hinspires and LinkedIn will provide the interactive platform for B2B marketers, P2P conversations and for sellers and decision makers to come together and engage in meaningful and focused conversations.

Skill 7: Social Selling Platform must be a leading social network community.• Hinspires has been launched with and by the ‘In-memory SAP HANA’ ,

LinkedIn group owner and is thus a part and extension of the SAP HANA group.

• The platform should have contextual members, i.e. we are 100% SAP HANA focused. This group has been built from the ground up for one single purpose only - SAP HANA.

• It must have an adequate foundation of members, i.e. we are the worlds largest SAP HANA Social network group on the planet. Projected to be close to 28,000 members by June 1st 2016- our official Hinspires Launch date

• It must be recognized, i.e. simH is SAP’s official social networking group for SAP HANA.

• It must be active, i.e. the group is growing at around 600 new followers every month and maintaining its lead globally

• It must have reach, i.e. 52% of the group members are management level decision makers in SAP and SAP HANA decisions.
