SalesAR

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Sales and Marketing coordinator, responsible for marketing content and sales outreach

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SalesAR?

We were looking for a company to work with who could help us to procure a database of appropriate potential clients and the cold email or linkedin campaigns to win new projects and build new relationships.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found 4 companies who offered this service and reviewed their corresponding reviews and spoke with them to gauge their ability to execute the requested task successfully. SalesAR had the most professional presentation and the reviews on Clutch gave us a sense of sincerity behind their work due to the positive reviews left online by validated previous clients. Vlad and Roman's fast reply rate and willingness to be in contact helped to cement our decision.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

They helped to procure a database of 1,500+ unique contacts and completed a 5 step email campaign and 3 step LinkedIn campaign that fruited 46 warm leads with whom we may be able to win future projects. A cold phone calling campaign was also explored but later terminated due to feedback from the leads. I would like to underline and appreciate the team's quick response rate to this feedback as it helped to mitigate any potential damage to our company's image.

What was the team composition?

Vlad was our initial contact to help create the skeleton of the project. Roman helped to step in once we confirmed that we would like to proceed further and helped to detail and outline the project. Julia helped to be our main contact who would be handling the actual day-to-day tasks and outreach to potential leads. Roman and I would have weekly meetings to review the KPIs of our particular project and address any changes in strategy that may be needed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I absolutely loved working with Roman, Julia, and Vlad. Their responsiveness and diligence in executing the campaign made the process very painless for our company as well as myself (who was the main handler of the project).

It was not a complete success as the conversion rate from lead to project was 0%, but this is quite the norm for our unique industry. However, the fact that we had over a 3% response rate with potential continued conversation leads me to believe that a bud has been planted.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow was quite efficient with no unnecessary back and forth. Working with them did not lead to excessive extra work on my end.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I found that their responsiveness was the most impressive and impactful aspect of their service.

Is there any area for improvement or anything that could have been done differently?

Nothing. I couldn't have asked for more.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

What was the team composition?

We've worked closely with Account Manager but at least 5 people were working behind the scenes to make our campaigns run as smoothly as possible.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The total conversion rate is impressive, the SaaS industry turned out to be the most successful one and we are aiming for getting back to cooperation as soon as we have a need.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We were getting weekly reports with all important metrics visible to learn about any improvements or decide what has to be changed in the strategy. I'd say that the communication was pretty smooth and diligent on their end, all deadlines were met and 100% transparent and accurate information was provided.

Describe the project in detail and walk through their service package.

The project started with me completing an ‘ideal customer profile,’ which included who I think we should target. To find the appropriate contacts, I identified job titles, company types, company sizes, and industries they should look at. We had some discussion at the beginning about this ideal customer profile. Once we settled on that, SalesAR’s team did research to find the right contacts that fit the profile. Each week, they supplied me with an updated list of new leads. I could even tell them what geography to focus on. They focused on what we asked them to do.
