Centerfield

Performance-based customer acquisition via digital marketing

Overview

Centerfield specializes in driving customer acquisition for large brands through performance-based digital marketing. Its approach combines technology, expert sales agents, and personalized, channel-optimized engagement (including text and chat) to move shoppers across devices toward a purchase. The company works with brands in home services and telecommunications, generating thousands of sales annually (about 2,000,000) and notable client outcomes (e.g., $100 million in sales for a leading home services company). Unlike typical marketing firms, Centerfield blends automated, data-driven marketing with live sales agents to create seamless buying experiences and measure success by the sales and customer acquisitions it delivers for its clients. The goal is to help partners grow their customer base and revenue by delivering high-quality, measurable results through a scalable, technology-enabled sales and marketing platform.
