The challenge

Leasecake had strong product capabilities. The message didn’t make them clear.

Leasecake offers a modern lease management and accounting platform with automation and AI. But their messaging lacked clarity, so positioning was inconsistent across marketing and sales, and it was harder to create predictable pipeline.

To win mid-market and enterprise multi-unit operators, Leasecake needed:

  • A defined ideal customer profile
  • A sharper competitive story
  • Positioning, messaging and demand gen aligned to revenue
How Swivel helped

It started with how multi-unit operators choose a lease platform.

Before any campaign went live, we defined the ICP, the personas inside it and the competitors buyers compare Leasecake against.

3personas: real estate, accounting and the C-suite
1 ICPdefined for mid-market and enterprise operators
Top competitorsmapped for every comparison

Three things we learned shaped everything after.

Each persona buys for a different reason.

Real estate, accounting and executives each have their own job to get done, so the message is built by persona.

Ease of use has to come through everywhere.

Whether it’s admin, accounting or AI, buyers need to see it’s simple to use.

Audit pressure is a real pain.

Asking whether the last audit was as easy as it should have been starts the right conversation.
