ALSBRIDGE INC DELIVERS A PIZZA AND A PARADIGM SHIFT

CEO Ben Trowbridge has a tastier idea for the IT marketplace, and it comes with a pizza.

The innovative CEO behind ProBenchmark plans to shake up the sleepy $400 million IT benchmarking industry with the launch of his company’s new software driven benchmarking tool, and its accompanying http://www.freebenchmark.com marketing campaign.

“A radical service requires radical marketing,” Trowbridge states. “Freebenchmark.com is the game changer because it enables companies that currently cannot afford a benchmark to buy one, and enables companies that currently benchmark to more easily gather critical information,” Trowbridge explains.

According to Trowbridge the IT benchmarking industry has been controlled by industry giants “who for decades have done business the same old way, using a tired, expensive and drawn out process,” Trowbridge says.

Trowbridge says his new service is more accurate because it eliminates human error and subjectivity and shortens the process from months to weeks,” at 70 percent below the current market cost,” adds Trowbridge.

The unconventional campaign and video takes a humorous stab at the slow moving IT benchmarking industry and promotes the company’s faster, data-centric ProBenchmark service.

How It Works
Freebenchmark.com is the gateway to ProBenchmark’s patent-pending, software-driven benchmark tool.

IT executives who visit the web site are taken through a brief, humorous introduction to how benchmarking has gone from a long, painful process with questionable results to a quick, easy exercise that provides real-world, useful information.

Visitors to the site also receive a free pizza, compliments of ProBenchmark.

As for the pizza, Trowbridge adds with a grin, “we hope you’ll have it in 30 minutes or less.”
