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

We hired AI Bees to find qualified leads for one of our programs in the USA. They prepared a strategy to target and approach the kind of leads we were looking for, and deployed it for a full quarter. During that process we had several meetings and conversations to tune up the tactics and the overall strategy, in order to get the 30 booked meetings they guarantee in the contract.

The number of scheduled meetings with potential leads was the measurable outcome. They were not able to deliver the first 30 meetings in the first quarter, so they had progress, but it took a little bit more time to adjust the strategy and find the leads we were looking for.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire AI bees?

We hired AI bees to schedule appointments with decision makers within our target market.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We had previously worked with AI bees on a self-managed LinkedIn campaign. The software worked perfectly & their team was great. When they came to us with a professionally managed solution with a guarantee to deliver XX qualified appointments/month it was a no-brainer on our part.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

AI bees was our outsourced SDR team. They worked with us to create templated verbiage & cold outreach sequences via LinkedIn and Email that they hyper-personalized for each individual outreach. They tracked performance, made the appropriate changes and would solicit our input when neccessary. They would then nuture any responses recieved until enough interest was expressed and would then use our calendaring tool to schedule an appointment with one of our sales reps.

What was the team composition?

Our team consistently included an Account Manager, Copy Writer and SDR/BDR however our initial Sales Rep, the VP and other specialists would occasionally be involved.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Traditionally we've used cold calling & referral marketing to generate leads so this was our first attempt at this type of marketing. While it took a bit longer to hit a stride, AI bees proactively communicated/make adjustments and held true to everything promised! Ultimately the project was a success, generated multiple new clients and reoccurring revenue that exceeded the cost.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Great! They were proactive and clear in their communication.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their integrity! If you've worked with other marketing/lead gen firms then you know how rare integrity is in the industry. AI bees held true to our mutually agreed upon lead qualification standards, was receptive to our feedback/adjustments and fullfilled the terms of the guarantee.

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

At one point we we got a new SDR, so there was a little learning curve but that's to be expected.
