Keap benefitted from a tremendous upswing of account growth between 2010 and 2015.
Small businesses fell in love with Keap’s ability to deliver all-in-one marketing and sales software. While dozens of startups often imitated Keap, none could compete with its broad appeal for equipping entrepreneurs with every tool to build audiences and grow revenue.
Despite the company achieving its all-in-one vision encompassing CRM, email, web forms, e-commerce, marketing automation, APIs, mobile apps, and telephony, it introduced some engineering challenges.
Adding new features became less practicable since it also resulted in ongoing support, maintenance, and following market trends. CTO, David Pinkus, wanted to accomplish both objectives, so he turned to Convrrt.

Before Convrrt, the company added a vital component to its platform: payment processing. This presented a billion-dollar opportunity to divert engineering resources to pursue that or to dedicate its software engineers to improve its landing page experience.
Keap users capture leads in a few different ways. Each method serves a particular purpose, but almost all need a developer to go live. For instance, many SMBs prefer WordPress. But creating conversion-ready landing pages isn’t feasible for most users. Embedded web forms and bespoke API integrations sometimes push the company’s most enthusiastic supporters to rival platforms.
For 20 years, Keap has helped liberate and empower small business entrepreneurs so they can strengthen their families, communities, and the global economy. Keap pioneered the sales and marketing automation software market with its Keap Lite, Keap Pro, and Keap Max products, along with expert coaching. Headquartered in Chandler, Arizona, the company is on a mission to simplify growth for 1 million entrepreneurs worldwide by 2030. Goldman Sachs, Bain Capital Ventures, Mohr Davidow Ventures, and Signal Peak Ventures fund Keap.

Product leaders wanted to streamline the user experience to create and publish beautiful landing pages in minutes. Additionally, the company wanted a flexible page builder experience that meets or exceeds business, security, and technology requirements.
With tens of thousands of small and medium-sized businesses relying on Keap to generate leads, follow-up, and drive sales, David Pinkus evaluated the Convrrt platform closely. “We compared Convrrt to several others in maket and Convrrt met all of our stringent requirements and user needs,” said Pinkus.
Convrrt collaborated with Keap like a true partner — much more than a technology vendor. They gathered feedback from product managers, users, and certified partners. In a matter of weeks, Keap introduced its newest landing page features powered by Convrrt.
Keap harnessed its development energy on the most valuable opportunities in the business and expanded its landing page features with Convrrt.
Convrrt equipped Keap with the following features:
In addition to enhancing the user experience, the Convrrt landing page solution helped propel product-led growth by increasing customer retention.
