The first places I'd invest for short term wins:

  • Capture intent via paid search (Google search, but also Bing) across branded and non branded keywords

  • Optimize your website for lead conversion (CTA structure, strategy, form enrichment)

  • Make sure you have multiple "high intent" offers including a contact sales request, live demo program, on demand demo program with short videos on your product, and free trial

At the same time, you have to invest in medium-term strategies:

  • SEO for key non brand keywords

  • Content generation at the top and middle of funnel that is solution-agnostic and focused on solving the problems your key buyer personas face

  • Website messaging, positioning and key pages for your key verticals, personas or solutions

  • Brand efforts to drive awareness, including PR, events/field activations, brand advertising, and paid social

  • Lead generation via paid channels like paid social, content syndication, and targeted industry placements
