Retentia Technology • Case Study

From One Software Brand to a Scalable Product Portfolio

How Retentia helped Recycly evolve from marketing a single software offering to positioning three distinct products with their own identities, messaging and buyer journeys.

Client Overview

Over several years, Recycly had built a strong reputation within the IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) industry through its operational expertise and commitment to innovation.

Alongside its core services, the business had also developed software to support ITAD organisations with managing assets, operational workflows and customer engagement.

Initially, these software capabilities were marketed under the Recycly brand as part of a single technology offering. As the platform matured, however, it became clear that the software had evolved into a suite of specialist solutions, each addressing different operational challenges within the industry.

The next stage of growth required more than marketing. It required a clear product strategy.

The Challenge

As the software portfolio expanded, presenting every capability under a single brand was becoming increasingly difficult.

Prospective customers were encountering multiple solutions, but the distinction between them wasn’t always clear. Product messaging overlapped, demonstrations required additional explanation, and marketing materials were no longer reflecting the maturity of the software itself.

The business had reached a point where its technology deserved its own structure.

The objective was to create a scalable product architecture that would:

This wasn’t a rebranding exercise. It was about creating clarity for prospective customers while giving each product room to grow.

Our Approach

Working closely with the Recycly team, we developed a product-led marketing framework designed to support both current and future growth.

Defining the Product Portfolio

The first step was establishing a clear structure for the software suite.

Rather than presenting one broad technology platform, the portfolio was organised into three specialist products:

Each product was positioned around a specific business function, making it easier for prospective customers to understand where it fitted within their own operations.

Product Positioning & Messaging

Every product required its own narrative.

We developed dedicated messaging frameworks that clearly communicated:

This ensured customers could quickly understand the purpose of each solution without unnecessary complexity.

Content & Product Marketing

Supporting the new product architecture required a complete content strategy.

Our team developed:

Each asset reinforced the positioning of the individual products while maintaining consistency across the overall Recycly brand.

Supporting Product Growth

Product marketing became an ongoing process rather than a one-off launch.

We continued working alongside the Recycly team to refine messaging, create new marketing assets, support product releases and ensure the software portfolio remained aligned with customer needs as it evolved.

The Outcome

The transition from a single software offering to a structured product portfolio created greater clarity across every stage of the customer journey.

The business now benefits from:

More importantly, the software portfolio now reflects the maturity of the business itself, giving customers a clearer understanding of each solution and the value it delivers.

Key Takeaway

As software businesses grow, adding new features isn’t enough. Products need clear identities, distinct value propositions and a marketing strategy that makes it easy for buyers to understand where each solution fits.

By helping Recycly transition from marketing software under a single brand to promoting a structured portfolio of specialist products, Retentia Eco Impact created a scalable foundation for future product growth while strengthening the overall customer experience.
