Case Study: GetRegistered: From Strategy to Sales: How Brand Positioning & Website Excellence Prepared GetRegistered for Enterprise Growth

1. Client Background

GetRegistered is event registration software designed to help event professionals create standout events through flawless registration experiences. Built by seasoned event professionals for event professionals—marketers, planners, managers, and their partners—GetRegistered blends incredible registration capabilities with ease of use to simplify event execution at any scale.

The platform serves corporate event managers and meeting planners at organizations running multiple events throughout the year. GetRegistered's differentiator is its laser focus on the registration experience itself, rather than trying to be an all-in-one event management suite. The product delivers:

• Dynamic conditional forms and beautiful event microsites that make registration simple and professional
• Seamless onsite management with 12-second badge printing and integrated check-in
• Advanced reporting and analytics that save event teams 2+ hours daily through smart filtering
• 200+ integrations with payment gateways, SSO, analytics tools, and existing tech stacks
• Intuitive UX and powerful customization without forcing tradeoffs between flexibility and ease

When I began working with GetRegistered, the company had achieved initial product-market fit with approximately 100 customers—primarily mid-market companies running corporate events and meetings. However, they faced a critical inflection point: How do you scale from early adopters (who will tolerate gaps) to mainstream enterprise customers (who expect polish, clarity, and strategic positioning)?

The founding team consisted of five co-founders, each bringing valuable expertise but also different perspectives on the company's direction, purpose, and positioning. This multi-founder structure meant that achieving alignment on brand fundamentals would require significant facilitation and structured decision-making.

2. The Challenge

GetRegistered faced three interconnected challenges preventing them from scaling to their next growth phase:

Scaling from 100 to 1,000 Customers

The company had successfully acquired their first 100 customers through founder-led sales, word-of-mouth, and early adopter enthusiasm. However, reaching 1,000+ customers would require:

• Systematic, repeatable go-to-market processes (not just founder hustle)
• Clear positioning that resonated with a broader market
• A professional digital presence that conveyed enterprise-readiness
• Sales enablement tools that allowed the team to sell without founder involvement

The existing website and messaging weren't built for this scale—they reflected an early-stage product still finding its voice, not an established solution ready for enterprise adoption.

Unclear Product Story & Market Positioning

While GetRegistered had built excellent technology, the website didn't effectively communicate the product's value or unique positioning to B2B event planners and managers. The messaging suffered from common early-stage pitfalls:

• Feature-focused rather than outcome-driven language
• Unclear differentiation from competitors (Cvent, Eventbrite, RegFox, etc.)
• No cohesive narrative connecting the problem → solution → value
• Inconsistent messaging across different pages and touchpoints

Prospects visiting the website couldn't quickly understand: Why GetRegistered instead of alternatives? What makes this different? Who is this really for?

This messaging weakness directly impacted the sales team's effectiveness. Without a clear, compelling product story, sales conversations required extensive education and qualification—slowing down pipeline velocity and win rates.

Inability to Attract Larger Enterprise Accounts

GetRegistered wanted to move upmarket, targeting larger organizations running more frequent, higher-stakes events. However, the brand positioning and website didn't project the enterprise-grade professionalism these buyers expected.

Larger accounts evaluate vendors more rigorously, involving multiple stakeholders (procurement, IT, finance) who scrutinize:

• Brand maturity and company stability
• Professional positioning and clear messaging
• Website quality and content depth
• Customer proof points and case studies

The existing website created doubt rather than confidence—making it harder to close enterprise deals even when the product itself was excellent.

Five Co-Founder Alignment Challenge

Underlying all these challenges was a structural complexity: achieving strategic alignment among five co-founders with different backgrounds, priorities, and visions for the company's future.

Each founder had valid but sometimes competing perspectives on:

• What the company's purpose and mission should be
• Which customer segments to prioritize
• How to position against competitors
• What brand personality to project

Without a structured process to surface these differences, debate them rigorously, and reach aligned decisions, any branding or positioning work would lack the internal conviction needed for consistent execution.

3. Goals

The leadership team outlined clear objectives for our engagement:

1. Align Five Co-Founders on Brand Fundamentals: Facilitate a structured process to define the company's brand purpose, vision, and mission, ensuring all five founders were genuinely aligned (not just superficially agreeing).
2. Develop Winning Strategy: Use A.G. Lafley's "Playing to Win" strategic framework to define GetRegistered's winning aspiration, where to play, how to win, required capabilities, and supporting management systems.
3. Create Differentiated Positioning: Develop an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), competitive positioning, and unique value proposition that clearly differentiated GetRegistered in the crowded event software market.
4. Build Comprehensive Messaging Framework: Create positioning statements, value propositions, four pillars of value, and supporting messages that the entire organization could use consistently.
5. Launch Professional Website: Design and deploy a new website on Webflow that brought the positioning and messaging to life through clear copy, strong visual design, and conversion-optimized structure.
6. Enable Sales Success: Provide the sales team with a digital asset (the website) that would help them tell a compelling product story, close more prospects, and attract larger enterprise accounts.

Key Performance Indicators:

While GetRegistered wasn't ready to invest in demand generation campaigns yet, the success metrics were:

• Internal alignment on strategy and positioning
• Sales team adoption of new messaging
• Improved sales conversation quality and win rates
• Increased enterprise account interest and closures
• Website serving as effective sales enablement tool
• Brand perception lift among target customers

Important Context: The company explicitly chose not to focus on lead generation or demand generation at this stage. Instead, they wanted to use the new website as part of their sales process—giving prospects a professional, persuasive digital experience that reinforced sales conversations and accelerated deals.

4. Strategy & Approach

Given the complexity of aligning five co-founders and building comprehensive brand foundations, I structured the engagement into four sequential phases:

Phase 1: Brand Purpose, Vision & Mission Alignment

Before diving into positioning or messaging, I needed to create genuine alignment among the five co-founders on the fundamental questions: Why does GetRegistered exist? What is our long-term vision? What is our mission?

I facilitated a series of structured brand workshops designed to:

• Surface each founder's individual perspectives without judgment
• Identify areas of natural alignment and areas of disagreement
• Debate competing viewpoints rigorously but constructively
• Converge on shared statements that all five could authentically champion

The process involved:

• Individual pre-work where each founder articulated their views
• Facilitated group sessions using affinity mapping and debate protocols
• Iterative refinement of draft statements through multiple rounds
• Testing statements against real scenarios to ensure they were actionable, not just platitudes

This foundational work was essential—without genuine alignment on purpose, vision, and mission, any subsequent positioning or messaging would fracture under the pressure of different founder interpretations.

The challenge: Getting five intelligent, opinionated founders to agree required patience, structured frameworks, and willingness to debate contentious issues. The time invested here (2-3 weeks) prevented months of downstream confusion and misalignment.

Phase 2: Strategic Framework Development Using "Playing to Win"

With brand fundamentals aligned, I guided the team through A.G. Lafley and Roger Martin's "Playing to Win" strategic framework—a proven methodology for making integrated strategic choices.

The framework consists of five cascading questions:

1. What is our winning aspiration?What does winning look like for GetRegistered? What is our ultimate ambition beyond just "participating" in the market?
2. Where will we play?What customer segments, geographic markets, product categories, distribution channels, and parts of the value chain will we compete in—and, critically, where will we NOT compete?
3. How will we win?What is our sustainable competitive advantage in our chosen playing field? What unique value do we create that competitors cannot easily replicate?
4. What capabilities must we have?What organizational capabilities, skills, and resources are essential to deliver on our where-to-play and how-to-win choices?
5. What management systems are required?What processes, structures, and systems do we need to support our strategic choices and ensure consistent execution?

I facilitated workshops where the founding team worked through each question systematically, using the Strategy Logic Flow to test their choices:

• Industry structure: What makes event registration software attractive/unattractive?
• Customer value: What do event professionals and their organizations actually value?
• Relative position: How do we compare to Cvent, Eventbrite, RegFox, etc. in capabilities and costs?
• Competitive response: How will competitors react to our choices, and what does that mean for us?

This rigorous process forced hard choices and revealed trade-offs:

• Choosing to focus exclusively on registration excellence meant saying "no" to becoming a full event management suite
• Targeting enterprise event professionals meant deprioritizing small events and consumer markets
• Competing on ease of use + power (not just price) meant accepting higher CAC but higher LTV

Phase 3: ICP Definition & Competitive Positioning

With strategy defined, I translated those strategic choices into actionable positioning:

Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) Development:

• Defined target personas: Corporate event managers, meeting planners, marketers running multiple events annually
• Quantified firmographics: Company size, event frequency, budget ranges, tech stack maturity
• Identified psychographics: Pain points, buying motivations, decision criteria, objections
• Mapped buyer journey: Awareness → Consideration → Decision stages and key questions at each

Competitive Positioning Analysis:

• Conducted positioning audit of key competitors (Cvent, Eventbrite, RegFox, Swoogo, Hopin)
• Identified positioning white space where GetRegistered could own distinct territory
• Developed positioning themes that differentiated GetRegistered:

Key Positioning Angle #1: Registration-Focused ExcellenceUnlike competitors trying to be all-in-one event platforms, GetRegistered focuses exclusively on making registration flawless. This specialization enables deeper functionality and better UX in the one thing that matters most: getting people registered and checked in smoothly.

Key Positioning Angle #2: Built by Event Pros, For Event ProsThe founding team's deep event industry experience translated into intuitive workflows, thoughtful features, and understanding of what event professionals actually need (not what engineers think they need).

Key Positioning Angle #3: No Tradeoffs Between Power and EaseMost event software forces a choice: powerful/complex (Cvent) or simple/limited (Eventbrite). GetRegistered's core innovation is delivering advanced capabilities through an intuitive interface—"ease of use" isn't code for "fewer features."

This positioning gave GetRegistered clear, defensible territory in a crowded market.

Phase 4: Messaging Framework & Website Development

With positioning defined, I created a comprehensive messaging architecture:

Core Messaging Components:

1. Positioning Statement (internal document):"For [corporate event professionals] who [run multiple events annually], GetRegistered is the [event registration software] that [delivers flawless registration through powerful yet intuitive tools]. Unlike [generic event platforms], GetRegistered [focuses exclusively on registration excellence, built by event pros who understand your workflows]."
2. Value Proposition (external-facing):"Standout events begin with flawless registration. GetRegistered blends incredible registration capabilities with ease of use to help event professionals simply create standout events—from registration to attendee check-in, all with great reporting & visibility."

6. Results & Outcomes

Because GetRegistered chose not to invest in demand generation campaigns at this stage, the results were more qualitative and sales-focused than purely quantitative. However, the impact was significant:

Internal Alignment & Strategic Clarity

The most fundamental outcome: GetRegistered emerged from the engagement with genuine strategic alignment among all five co-founders.

• All founders could articulate the same purpose, vision, and mission
• Strategic choices (where to play, how to win) were documented and agreed upon
• Positioning and messaging were consistent across the organization
• Debates that previously consumed leadership energy were resolved with a clear framework

This alignment enabled faster decision-making, consistent external communication, and focused execution—eliminating the "strategic drift" that kills many multi-founder startups.

Improved Sales Effectiveness & Conversation Quality

The sales team gained powerful new tools for more effective prospect conversations:

Clear Product Story:Sales reps could now explain GetRegistered's value in consistent, compelling terms using the messaging framework. Instead of ad-libbing features, they told a structured story: "We're built by event professionals, for event professionals. We focus exclusively on making registration flawless—no tradeoffs between power and ease."

Professional Sales Enablement Asset:The website became a critical sales tool. Reps would:

• Send prospects to specific product pages showing relevant capabilities
• Walk through the site during demos to reinforce messaging
• Use customer testimonials from the site to build credibility
• Reference the site's clear positioning to differentiate from competitors

Objection Handling:The positioning work provided clear responses to common objections:

• "How are you different from Cvent?" → "We focus exclusively on registration excellence, not trying to be an all-in-one platform. That specialization means better UX and deeper functionality where it matters most."
• "Why not just use Eventbrite?" → "Eventbrite is built for consumer ticketing. We're built for corporate event professionals who need advanced capabilities, reporting, and integrations."

Sales reported that prospect conversations became:

• Shorter (less education required, clearer value)
• More confident (reps had consistent talking points)
• Higher quality (attracted better-fit prospects)
• More likely to advance (website reinforced sales pitch)

Enterprise Account Attraction & Conversion

The professional website and clear positioning helped GetRegistered move upmarket:

Increased Enterprise Interest:Larger organizations that previously might have dismissed GetRegistered as an "unproven startup" now saw a professional, credible solution. The website projected:

• Brand maturity through polished design
• Enterprise-readiness through feature depth
• Stability through customer social proof
• Trustworthiness through clear positioning

Improved Win Rates with Larger Accounts:Sales reported successfully closing larger enterprise accounts that had been stuck in pipeline or had previously churned in early conversations. The professional digital presence gave procurement, IT, and finance stakeholders the confidence to approve GetRegistered.

Testimonial Strength:Customer testimonials featured on the site became powerful social proof:

• "What a phenomenal creation. I don't want to call it a tool and it's got so much more life than software. You made registration attainable and fun!"
• "We were extremely pleased with getregistered. Our associates are really impressed and getregistered has took us to another level of professionalism."

These authentic customer voices validated the positioning and gave prospects confidence.

Website as Strategic Asset

The new website served multiple strategic functions beyond just marketing:

Sales Enablement:

• Shortened sales cycles by pre-educating prospects
• Provided leave-behind asset for multi-stakeholder buying committees
• Reinforced sales conversations with consistent messaging

Competitive Differentiation:

• Clearly articulated unique value vs. alternatives
• Positioned GetRegistered in distinct market space
• Prevented commoditization and price-based competition

Talent Acquisition:

• Attracted higher-quality candidates who understood the mission
• Helped recruits understand company strategy and culture
• Projected stability and growth trajectory

Partnership Development:

• Enabled partnership conversations with event agencies
• Provided professional asset for co-marketing
• Demonstrated enterprise-readiness to potential partners

Brand Perception & Market Positioning

While difficult to quantify precisely, qualitative feedback indicated significant brand perception improvement:

Customer Feedback:Existing customers noted the professional evolution and expressed increased confidence in GetRegistered's long-term viability.

Prospect Feedback:Prospects commented on the clarity of messaging and ease of understanding the product's value—reducing friction in sales conversations.

Competitive Positioning:GetRegistered successfully differentiated itself from both enterprise complexity (Cvent) and consumer simplicity (Eventbrite), owning a distinct middle ground: "Enterprise power with consumer-grade ease."

Foundation for Future Growth

Most importantly, the engagement created a scalable foundation for the next growth phase:

• Consistent messaging that all team members could execute
• Clear ICP guiding marketing and sales targeting
• Professional website ready for paid acquisition campaigns
• Strategic framework enabling confident decision-making
• Sales enablement supporting team expansion

GetRegistered was now positioned to scale from 100 to 1,000 customers with strategic clarity, operational alignment, and professional assets—rather than trying to grow on founder hustle and inconsistent messaging.

7. Key Takeaways

Five Co-Founders Require Structured Decision-Making Frameworks:

GetRegistered's multi-founder structure could have been a fatal weakness, with competing visions pulling the company in different directions. The "Playing to Win" framework provided a neutral, rigorous process for debating strategy and reaching aligned decisions. The lesson: When you have multiple leaders with equal authority, you need frameworks that elevate decisions above individual preferences and ground them in market reality and strategic logic.

Foundation Before Scale: Strategy Must Precede Tactics:

GetRegistered wisely chose to invest in positioning and messaging before launching demand generation campaigns. This sequencing was critical—running ads or content marketing with unclear positioning would have wasted budget and sent confused signals to market. By building the strategic foundation first (purpose, vision, strategy, positioning, messaging), they ensured that future marketing and sales efforts would amplify a consistent, compelling story rather than scatter attention across inconsistent narratives.

For B2B SaaS, Your Website Is Your #1 Sales Asset:

GetRegistered didn't build the website for lead generation—they built it for sales enablement. This was the right choice for their stage. The website became the tool that shortened sales cycles, answered prospect questions, built credibility, and closed deals. In complex B2B sales with multi-stakeholder buying committees, your website is often the only "sales rep" who gets to present to all decision-makers simultaneously. Make it count.

Positioning Isn't "Marketing Fluff"—It's Strategic Clarity:

The positioning work didn't just create nice-sounding taglines. It forced hard choices about where to compete and where to cede ground. Choosing to focus exclusively on registration excellence meant saying "no" to becoming a full event platform—a strategic choice with real trade-offs. But that choice gave GetRegistered defensible territory. Without clear positioning, every competitor looks the same and buyers default to price. With sharp positioning, you own distinct mental real estate.

Alignment Is the Ultimate Competitive Advantage:

Companies with aligned leadership move faster, execute more consistently, and waste less energy on internal debate. GetRegistered's investment in aligning five co-founders on purpose, vision, and strategy created a force multiplier for everything that followed. One aligned team moving confidently in a clear direction beats five talented individuals pulling in different directions. The time spent facilitating alignment wasn't a delay—it was an accelerator.

The lesson: When you invest in strategic foundations—alignment, positioning, messaging, and professional assets—before trying to scale, you create a platform for sustainable, efficient growth. GetRegistered transformed from an early-stage startup finding its voice into a professionally positioned solution ready to scale from 100 to 1,000+ customers with clarity and confidence.
