Solutions

Extra lead research

Extra lead research. The client initially provided us with lists of preferred companies and industries, which included sectors like chemical manufacturing, oil and gas, petroleum refineries, pulp and paper, and mining and metals. We specifically targeted leads within companies of 5,000–10,000 employees globally.

We enhanced this database by conducting extensive research to find additional high-value prospects. Our focus was on key decision-makers: general managers, plant managers, and director-level positions across operations, maintenance, and safety.

Diverse and tailored email campaigns

Since February 2023, we’ve launched 77 unique email campaigns, each designed for a different ICP, and leveraged various approaches, including referral, face-to-face, workshop/webinar invites, and reengagement with past opportunities.

We’ve customized our campaigns based on different locations and on the client’s unique offerings and value propositions, such as:

Challenges

In the highly competitive software development industry, our client struggled to stand out and make meaningful connections with potential customers. Their main challenges were:

  • Lack of Targeted Outreach: The client was sending generic cold emails, which failed to engage prospects.
  • Data Accuracy and Relevance: Incomplete and outdated lead data resulted in low response rates.
  • Email Deliverability Issues: Many emails were landing in spam folders, reducing their effectiveness.
  • Limited Personalization: The emails lacked personalization, making them easy to ignore.

Rushed Campaigns: Previous campaigns were launched without proper planning, which impacted their results.

Solutions We Provided

1. Thorough Lead Research

We focused on manual lead research, ensuring that we collected the most accurate and up-to-date information about prospects. This allowed us to approach leads at the right time, with the right message.

2. Data Enrichment

We utilized advanced tools like Clay and ChatGPT to enrich the lead data further. This involved gathering additional insights about each lead’s business needs, challenges, and industry context. This enriched data allowed us to craft highly personalized outreach messages that resonated with the leads.

 

3. Email Warm-up

Before launching the campaign, we performed a proper email warm-up. This step ensured that our emails reached the leads’ inboxes, minimizing the risk of emails getting filtered into spam folders.

 

4. Personalized Cold Emails

Our team crafted cold emails with a “sweet touch”—personalization was key. By tailoring each message to address the specific challenges and interests of each lead, we increased engagement and response rates.

 

5. A/B Testing of Email Copy

Inspired by the strategies in Alex Hormozi’s “$100 Million Offers,” we ran multiple A/B tests on email copy. This iterative approach allowed us to continuously improve our outreach messaging to find what resonated best with our target audience.

A/B Testing: Continuously testing different email variations meant we needed to remain flexible and adaptive.
