Five years that changed the face of Delphix.

The rebrand was the starting line. What followed was five years of creative that rebuilt every surface a buyer touches, sharpened the story, and put the company on stage in front of its own market. The numbers moved with it: from $55M to over $100M in ARR.

DevOps + Data Impact keynote
The premise
A brand only matters once the market feels it.

The new identity was worth nothing on a style guide. It had to show up in every page, pitch, campaign, and room where deals actually move. That was the work: take the story to market, at volume, without it ever drifting.

01
The story we told

We changed what we sold without changing the story.

Delphix was moving off DevOps test data management and onto three solutions: Discovery, Masking, and Provisioning. A clean break in the narrative would have cost us every buyer who already knew us. So we kept the story we had earned and let it widen into the full application lifecycle. Same arc, bigger promise, no reset. That shift lived in three decks, each one carrying it to a different room.

Beat 01
The trend they live in

Releases went from monthly to millions of CI/CD runs. Start where the buyer already is.

Beat 02
The cost of ignoring it

77M records exposed, a $350M settlement. Test data is the unguarded door.

Beat 03
Why point tools fail

Every cloud ships its own masking and catalog. No consistent control anywhere.

Beat 04
The wider promise

One data operating model across the application lifecycle, not one more tool.

Beat 05
Proof in their language

Unisys, JPMorgan Chase, 560% five-year ROI. The claim, closed out by a customer.

01 · CEO keynote

The corporate story

Told by the CEO to the market. Three industry trends, then the turn: Delphix as a multicloud data operating model for the whole application lifecycle.What makes it differentAlmost no product in it. The deck earns the right to the pitch by making the problem undeniable first.

02 · Field pitch

The sales pitch

The same five beats, then it keeps going. Product pillars, how it works, referential integrity, ROI, and the logos that already bet on us.What makes it differentBuilt to be interrupted. Buyer personas, entry points, and validation slides let a rep jump to whatever the room actually asked about.

03 · ABM reference

The customer framework

Built for the ABM launch off deep account, persona, and buyer-journey research. ERGO, Investec, Barclays: each account's own values, priorities, and goals, with our answer beside them.What makes it differentIt is not our story at all. It reads in the customer's words first, which is what finally aligned the org on one view of the buyer.

The website

A new digital front door.

The first real test of the brand: explain a complex product in seconds and look confident doing it. I led the redesign end to end, then built it out to a full solution system that all held one voice.

04 · Case Study of the Year

Proof, told like a story.

We produced 20 custom customer case studies. One, SelectHealth, won Case Study of the Year at the 2019 BIG Awards for Business, a data-for-DevOps story framed around something human: helping people live longer, healthier lives.

05
The marquee events

We put the company on its own stage.

The Data Company Summit, Data Impact, and the Delphix Data Conference gave the story a room of its own. Across more than 150 events, the brand stopped explaining itself and started being felt.

Outcome
$55M became $100M+.

Five years of creative, one system, one story. The sales cycle fell from nine months to three, attrition ran at half the industry norm, and the brand became something the market could feel rather than read.
