Challenge

In the course of this lead generation initiative, our primary focus was on identifying key decision-makers who could potentially express interest in the services offered by our client. Our objective involved orchestrating meetings and coordinating calls on behalf of our client, channeling qualified leads to their sales team. To successfully accomplish this objective, we undertook the following steps:

• Pinpointing the specific target audience for our client;

• Establishing clear campaign expectations to guide our efforts;

• Crafting bespoke message scripts and corresponding follow-ups tailored to our client's offerings.

Before embarking on this campaign, our client had conducted comprehensive market research. Following this, our team made subtle adjustments to enhance the strategy. The subsequent steps outline the actions we took to fine-tune the approach.

Target Audience Research

Our client wanted to go after Top and Mid-executives in Logistics and Supply Chain area. Among the most common titles we searched for were:

◊ Supply Chain Director;

◊ Director of Operations and Logistics;

◊ VP of Logistics or Supply Chain.

Opting to initiate the email campaign as our primary strategy, it was imperative that every list we utilized was meticulously curated for precision.

Additionally, seniority emerged as a pivotal metric. Although the client expressed a preference for exclusively targeting top executives, drawing from our experience, we advocated for the inclusion of multiple levels of seniority. We firmly believe that incorporating a range of seniority levels can enhance the effectiveness of peer-to-peer communication, ultimately leading to optimal results for our clients.

Messaging Strategy

We developed a messaging strategy encompassing four key steps:

• Commencing with a positive message complimenting the company's achievements;

• Subsequently, sharing information about our client's solution in the second message;

• The third message elaborated on how the client's product could contribute to the growth of their business;

• Concluding with a brief, friendly message inviting them to explore a demo.

It's crucial to avoid complexity or excessive length in messages, as it could potentially lead to a loss of the prospect's attention. Keeping the messages concise and straightforward is the recommended approach. Once the client approved the strategy, we swiftly proceeded to implementation.

Outreach

Once we had constructed and obtained approval for the initial prospect list and message scripts, we initiated the outreach. Initial results may exhibit a gradual pace, which is acceptable. However, through a series of fine-tuning adjustments, we meticulously addressed all pertinent details, ultimately achieving outstanding results.

Campaign Results:

The campaign demonstrated remarkable success, exceeding the client's expectations with impressive outcomes:

Achieving an outstanding 58.2% open rate, well above the industry average of 25.1%, showcased the effectiveness of our approach. Additionally, our response rate soared to an exceptional 15.2%.

We garnered a total of 127 enthusiastic replies, complemented by 183 "Maybe later" responses, culminating in the scheduling of 72 calls.

Noteworthy companies expressing interest included industry leaders such as Caterpillar, and Dupont, underscoring the campaign's impact within the targeted market.

Conclusion:

During this campaign we were able to:

◊ Reached over 6000 prospects;

◊ Grow their network by an average of 5 prospects per week;

◊ Schedule 48 booked demo calls.
