OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Belkins?

We hired Belkins to source leads on our behalf, then engage with them and convert sales leads into appointments.

What were your goals for this project?

We had three objections in front of us:

1. Automate lead generation
2. Set up effective marketing outreach
3. Turn as many leads into booked appointments as we can; As a result we would generate more clients.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found them when we looked for Top Lead Generation agencies in the US.

Describe the project in detail.

They built a database for us that matched our ICP. Then they automated outreach leveraging multiple tools. After their team of copywriters prepared templates, messages and a playbook, the SDR launched campaigns and start generating responses.

On a daily basis, SDR attended to all incoming emails and followed up with prospects who were warm. Then SDR turned these warm leads into sales qualified leads and delivered them to us by accessing our calendars and setting up appointments. Our SE moved these meetings to closing.

What was the team composition?

We worked with Researchers, an SDR and AM.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have benefited greatly from the experience that Belkins has in SaaS. We found out that the agency has successfully developed several SaaS products in-house and they grow these products together with the agency, so they know where we are coming from and what are the challenges that we face on a daily basis.

Some of the problems that Belkins helped us overcome are:

1. Low quality prospects in our database. (we were not able to achieve accurate leads’ information with other providers)
2. Spam problems with our emails. (every time we launched new campaigns we experienced low performance because of spam)
3. Low conversion into appointments (we knew that our conversion was below average)

As a result of our engagement, Belkins was able to address these 3 challenges and because of this we had an increase in our pipeline by 200% in the first 3 months.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I can’t complain.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The most impressive about Belkins is that they are very detail oriented. They measure every part of the funnel and provide very detailed marketing reports.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Everything was super professional.

We hired Belkins to boost our sales process and outsource top of the funnel. We were looking for a turnkey solution and Belkins was able to tailor one for us.

What were your goals for this project?

We had the same challenges as other startups have: a small team, everyone wearing many hats, no sales processes in place. The most logical and budget-friendly solution was to find an experienced partner like Belkins who can realize the lead generation on our behalf.

Describe the project in detail.

We went through the onboarding process with their team, then they spent a few days preparing the leads and templates. Also, our IT team assisted them with the mailboxes’ setup. By the end of the first week, they send us everything for a review.

After we approved the templates and leads they launched outreach campaigns. Then we had a call once per week where we discussed the booked calls and the SDR worked with our feedback to improve the quality of upcoming booked calls.

What was the team composition?

We worked with 5 people and the account manager was the main point of contact.

Belkins was and is a great partner to work with. They were able to learn our product in detail, understand, and analyze our Ideal Customer Profile, prepare leads, mailboxes, email content as well as professionally support our account throughout the entire campaign.

Furthermore, they delivered multiple sales qualified leads (I don’t have the number in front of me now) and we converted around 20% of them in new paid accounts.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We were using Slack and Zoom for day to day and week calls. The team was always available in European and US working hours.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They have a great process in place. It’s simple but elegant and it’s working! Again, Belkins great job!

There is nothing that stands out.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Belkins?

We are a small SaaS company developing a product designed, built and run by engineers. You can imagine how difficult it is to sell the product when you don’t have much experience in marketing and selling. Belkins was able to run marketing campaigns on our behalf while educating us on how things work.

What were your goals for this project?

Most of our leads came from the word of mouth historically and for some time we didn’t know how to build lead generation to produce leads consistently. We had no idea what tools to use, content to send and how to generate leads. We needed a professional firm and Belkins fit right in.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

They were recommended by a friend of ours who worked with them and was satisfied with the work they did.

Describe the project in detail.

We brainstormed the ICP, then the Belkins team prepared templates and messages. They also built a database with my ideal customers. Then SDR runs target campaigns, every day handling responses and setting up calls. To my surprise we have more calls every next month and they keep coming until now!
