XQL Group · B2B marketing agency

Paid Ads for ERP Consulting Firms

If you implement SAP, NetSuite or Dynamics 365, we're the paid ads agency that gets you in front of the CFO, CIO and VP of Operations before the RFP goes out. We report SQLs and signed SOWs.

  1. Search campaigns on partner-selection queries like "how to choose a NetSuite implementation partner" and "NetSuite vs. Dynamics 365 for manufacturing".
  2. Migration and cost campaigns, such as "S/4HANA migration for discrete manufacturing", plus negatives for students, training courses, certifications and "what is ERP".
  3. LinkedIn targeting for CFOs, CIOs, VPs of Finance, VPs of Operations and IT directors by industry, company size and current platform.
  4. Creative built on go-lives that landed on time and on budget and cutovers that didn't stop the business, with proof for the buyer's platform and industry.
  5. Offers for a buyer who isn't ready to talk yet: an implementation readiness assessment, a go-live risk diagnostic or a platform-selection guide for their industry.
  6. Meta retargeting that keeps you visible to warm accounts across a board-approved cycle of 9 to 18 months.
  7. CRM tracking that keeps paid pipeline apart from vendor referrals and directory leads, through procurement and board approval to SOW.
How the system works

How we work with ERP firms

  1. Pick the practice

    We look at which platforms, industries and deal sizes you most want more of. Paid works best pushing one or two practices hard, so we start there.

  2. Check your proof

    Paid amplifies case studies and references, so we review those first. If the proof is thin, we'll tell you to build it before you spend on ads.

  3. Build and launch

    We set up search and LinkedIn campaigns, landing pages by platform and industry, and tracking that separates vendor-referred deals. Then we launch with a test plan.

  4. Tune each month

    Your AEs tell us which conversations had board backing and which were admins benchmarking options. That feedback changes bids, audiences and which offer the CFO sees next.

The XQL difference

Why ERP partners choose XQL

  • 01

    We reach buyers before the shortlist

    By the time an RFP lands, the buyer has half-decided. LinkedIn lets us reach the transformation committee months earlier, while they're still reading analyst reports and asking peers for references.

  • 02

    Creative that answers the go-live fear

    "Certified gold partner" sounds like the forty other firms in the vendor directory. We lead with delivery: how cutover went, how you handle problems after go-live and what the program really cost.

  • 03

    A clean split from vendor referrals

    Your SAP or NetSuite channel and paid will touch the same accounts. We track them separately from first touch to SOW, so neither steals credit and you know which pipeline you own.

  • 04

    Straight answers on readiness

    If paid isn't the right first move for your stage, we'll say so. We've built marketing from zero before: for DBB Software, a software development company, that meant 28 SQLs and 3 enterprise deals.

Why XQL vs alternatives

Your options compared

DimensionTypical approachThe XQL way
Vendor referrals and the partner directoryShow you as one of many certified firms ranked by tier, and send leads only when the vendor chooses to.Reaches the committee directly on LinkedIn and search, tracked in your CRM as pipeline you own.
Trade shows and ERP user eventsPut you in a room with buyers a few times a year, with spend that's hard to tie to a signed SOW.Keeps you in front of the same accounts all year and ties every dollar to SQLs and SOWs.
A general B2B ad agencyBids on "ERP consulting" and "SAP partner" against the vendors and reports form fills from students and admins.Targets partner-selection, migration and cost searches and optimizes to accepted SQLs your AEs agree with.
Your own marketing teamStretched across vendor relationships and events, and often too close to the partner-tier story to lead with delivery risk.Adds senior paid specialists and buyer benchmarks, and leaves vendor and directory management with your team.
Commercial outcomes

Book a strategy call

We plan and run your paid search, LinkedIn and Meta campaigns to reach the people who sponsor an ERP project, then track every lead to a signed SOW. For ERP firms that means skipping vendor-owned head terms, targeting the transformation committee by title and industry, and building offers that answer the fear of a failed go-live.

On those head terms, no. The vendor's own result and the directory listing sit above you. Paid search works on narrower searches that come up while a buyer picks a partner: implementation cost, go-live risk, platform comparisons for a vertical and migrations like S/4HANA. Volume is lower and intent is much higher. For most ERP firms, LinkedIn still gets the larger budget.

The build takes a few weeks, and first qualified conversations usually follow soon after launch. Board approval and the SOW come on your normal 9 to 18 month cycle. We report progress at each stage in the meantime (meetings, SQLs, procurement), so nobody has to wait a year to see whether the channel works.

Only if the tracking is sloppy. We separate vendor-referred and paid pipeline in your CRM from first touch to SOW. They're different conversations: a vendor referral arrives when the vendor routes it, while a CFO who engaged with your LinkedIn ad picked you before the shortlist narrowed. Keeping them apart shows which pipeline you own.

Your program is led by a senior marketer who sets the plan with you. Our in-house paid specialists build the search, LinkedIn and Meta campaigns, run tests and handle tracking, and content specialists write the offers and landing pages. Your side reviews platform and industry claims and joins a monthly call about which leads had real budget.

Paid buys speed and committee reach. SEO builds the demand that compounds underneath, on the same partner-selection and migration questions. AI search counts because AI assistants already cite the vendors on their own terms, and our work gets clients recommended at an 80% success rate. Many ERP firms run paid while SEO and AI search grow.
