Interesting list of visuals, and it immediately launched a cheeky Slack thread on our internal marketing channel about some of these and the absurd ways we could use them. So for this blog post, we’re bringing a bit of humor and lightness while still communicating some of the advantages of Keelvar’s offerings to sourcing professionals. 

Focusing on the top 5 emojis on Hubspot’s list, here’s what we came up with:

  1. 🐙 Why Our Sourcing Bots are Like the Mighty Octopus – This automation brings the intelligence, learning, and multitasking needed to create speed and efficiency, all while quietly working on up to 90% of sourcing event tasks under the surface.
  2. Quit 🐴 ing Around: Optimize Your Sourcing Today! – When sourcing optimization can deliver 100% ROI (or more) with just your first event, it’s time to increase adoption.
  3. 👖 No matter what your size, Keelvar handles all your sourcing events – Whether it’s your largest, most complex annual RFP or your higher-frequency spot bidding events, Keelvar can support the full spectrum. Try us on!
  4. 🍒This one came in with two possible ideas from our team, so in the real world, we would likely A/B test this one:
