BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and position.

I am the CCO of Powerplay One

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

Powerlay One provides AI-enhanced consultancy for sports organizations and built a tool to assess where clubs and leagues stand today, define their ideal future, and deliver a detailed roadmap to get there. Real diagnostics, real clarity, real next steps. Our mission: Powerplay One is not about introducing more innovation into sports — it's about unlocking and scaling the value that already exists, and making it accessible to all.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Workspace to accomplish?

• Build an automated B2B outreach process for our AI-powered sports consultancy startup. We were launching a new diagnostic platform (SCAS) for sports organizations and needed to automate our direct mailing and LinkedIn outreach campaigns to reach sports clubs and organizations at scale.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We engaged Workspace to build an automated B2B outbound sales process for our AI-powered sports consultancy startup. We were preparing to launch our SCAS (Sports Competition Assessment System) platform and needed to reach sports clubs and organizations at scale through direct email and LinkedIn campaigns. Key deliverables included: 1. A custom AI plugin that serves as the core engine for our outbound workflow. The plugin automates prospect research by scanning LinkedIn profiles, activity, and Google for public information about each lead. 2. An AI-powered lead qualification system that classifies prospects into user personas, identifies their potential pain points, and determines whether they are a fit for our product — all automatically. 3. An automated personalized email generation system that composes highly personalized first-touch emails based on all the gathered intelligence about each prospect. 4. Apollo integration with sub-agents for lead enrichment, qualification, and search — all triggered by a single outbound command. 5. A flexible deployment architecture with multiple options (scheduled tasks, Routines, Managed Agents) so the system can run autonomously without requiring an open laptop. The solution replaced what would have been a tedious manual process of researching each prospect, writing individual emails, and managing outreach sequences — condensing it into a single automated workflow.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

While the system has not yet been fully deployed, the project has already delivered clear, measurable value: Time savings: The AI plugin automates what would otherwise be a manual process of researching each prospect individually across LinkedIn and Google, qualifying them, and writing personalized outreach emails. What would take 15–20 minutes per prospect manually is now handled in seconds by a single command. Cost efficiency: By replacing the need for a dedicated SDR or outreach specialist to handle research, qualification, and first-touch email writing, the solution dramatically reduces the cost of scaling our outbound efforts — critical for an early-stage startup with limited resources. Optimal use of AI technology: The solution leverages the latest AI capabilities (Claude, Apollo enrichment, automated workflows) in a practical, production-ready architecture. Rather than cobbling together manual workarounds, Workspace delivered a system that represents best-in-class use of newly available AI tools for B2B sales automation. Scalability: The system is designed to handle outreach to thousands of sports organizations — our target list includes 9,000+ contacts — which would be impossible to approach with the same level of personalization through manual effort alone. Ivan came prepared with a working plugin before our first call and went above and beyond to support us. Smart, practical, and genuinely invested in our success. Highly recommended.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

This was a short, focused project, and Workspace's project management was excellent throughout. Ivan delivered the custom AI plugin with clear instructions before our introductory meeting, which allowed us to hit the ground running from the very first call. Communication was extremely timely and responsive  and questions were answered quickly, and there was never any lag in follow-up. Despite the compact scope, Ivan took the time to understand our specific business context as a sports tech startup, walked us through every component of the solution in detail, and offered multiple deployment options tailored to our needs. The approach felt more like a collaborative partnership than a vendor engagement. Everything was delivered on time and as promised with no surprises, no delays.

What was your primary form of communication with Workspace?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What impressed me most was Ivan's genuine willingness to help. This wasn't a typical sales-driven engagement. Ivan proactively offered his expertise and went above and beyond to provide support. He had already built and sent us a custom AI plugin with detailed instructions before we even had our first meeting together. During the call, he took the time to thoroughly explain every component, offered multiple technical approaches tailored to our situation, and shared insights from his own experience running B2B outbound for his SaaS product. It felt like getting advice from a fellow founder who genuinely wanted to see us succeed, not just deliver a service. That kind of generosity and hands-on commitment is rare and made the entire experience exceptional.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Workspace could have done differently?

No.

Workspace provided end-to-end design and digital communication support for our Innovate Split conference. Their scope covered adapting and applying the event’s visual identity across all channels and producing the full set of promotional and operational assets needed before and during the event. They worked closely with our organizing team to ensure consistency, fast turnarounds, and on-time delivery—especially as timelines and requirements evolved in the lead-up to a live event.

Key deliverables included:

• Visual identity adaptations and design guidelines for digital use
• Social media assets for announcements, promotions, and ongoing updates (post and story formats)
• Digital promotional materials for attendees, speakers, and partners
• Accreditation and badge visuals for different attendee groups (speakers/partners/participants)
• On-site and online communication materials to support the conference experience and real-time updates

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

• Stronger pre-event reach and engagement: Our conference announcements and promotional content performed better due to consistent, high-quality visuals and coordinated posting.
• More consistent brand presence: The visual identity was applied uniformly across channels, which improved recognition and made the event look more professional and cohesive.
• Smoother on-site operations: Clear accreditation and badge assets helped streamline check-in and reduced confusion for different attendee groups (speakers, partners, participants).
• Positive stakeholder feedback: We received strong feedback after the event about the overall look, clarity of information, and professionalism of the materials.

Consistent design across channels improved attendee and partner experience, reflected in positive post-event feedback.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Workspace’s project management was smooth, proactive, and well organized. They set clear priorities with us, kept deliverables moving through short feedback cycles, and consistently delivered items on time, even with the fast turnarounds and last-minute adjustments that come with a live event. They were highly responsive, quick to incorporate feedback, and flexible when our needs shifted, while still maintaining a consistent visual standard across all materials.

What was your primary form of communication with Workspace?

• In-Person Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to maintain a strong, coherent visual identity across a large number of deliverables while staying fast and flexible stood out. They clearly understand the pace and complexity of event work (tight deadlines, multiple stakeholder groups, and frequent last-minute changes) and still delivered consistently high-quality assets with great attention to detail and communication throughout.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Workspace could have done differently?

Overall, the collaboration went very smoothly and we were happy with the outcome. If anything, the only improvement would be on our side, locking certain inputs slightly earlier would reduce last-minute iterations. Workspace handled changes quickly and professionally, so there’s nothing major we’d point out as a gap.
